The maximum wheel size is 60 mm (outside) or 56 mm if riding 4 wheels flat.

Neglected Truth Box Jam 2011 feat. Montre Livingston and Franco Cammayo Be-Mag·May 11, 2011On May 7th, a few good friends and I headed down to the Neglected Truth Skate Shop 7th Annual Birthday Box Jam. The jam was held in an empty parking lot down the street on just about the grittiest piece of black top you could ask for. The lot is sloped downhill and provides for a perfect street course; minus the hike back up every 3 minutes. This year the jam had more obstacles than ever and lived up to its expectations. The NT Birthday Box Jam seems to improve each year and maintains support from some of the gnarliest of bladers.

Seven Rats Premiere in Melbourne, Australia Be-Mag·May 2, 2011Its Friday the 22nd of April, time for the world premiere of Australian DVD Seven Rats. It was in a dark and filthy cobblestone alleyway right in the heart of Melbournes CBD that the red carpet was rolled out for all who attended. The appropriately named Rancho Notorious was the venue for the evening. Inside on the first level was an old warehouse converted into a gallery showcasing talented Melbourne artists, but this didnt take importance away from the bar which was serving the finest local and imported beers, wine, and an enormous cheese platter (real rat food). Like most who attended, Josh Clarke strolled in with his eyes set on the bar. The event and venue was one that Melbourne rollerbladers had not experienced before for a premiere, and everyone knew this meant something special.
