Shorter Cranks

<< < (2/2)

Sasper:
shorter cranks = easier oppo spins , oppo tailwhips etc, if you ride 4 pegs it will give you better clearance on the rearfoot since it is closer to bb center, I want to try 165mm cranks , but when Thunderbolts first came out I got 175mm instead.

I feel it's mostly this. It sucks if you loop out and have your heel catch the peg with the back foot. Imagine in an ice pick on a rail... Vince Carter dunks all day!
