Rotating your wheels is optional?

If you hate rotating your wheels, try rotating your deck or your stance instead lol.

The wheels are were 65mm Rainskates Tsunamis in 85a (discontinued). I put them on my setup on Sept. 17 and rode them straight to their cores by Oct. 1 with zero rotating or swapping. This took  about 75-80 runs across 7 skate sessions, since my local hills aren’t huge and I work full-time.

I didn't start out with the goal of “clean cores with no rotating” but I challenged myself to finish it out after I realized they were halfway cored and I hadn’t touched the axle nuts at all. Finally got that sense of pride and accomplishment for my years grinding switch 😤

For anyone curious, my front-heelside and rear-toeside wheels were the smallest and cored just a few slides before my front-toeside and rear-heelside wheels. I’m not sure if that’s due to “more switch slides” or the fewer “bigger/heavier normal slides” tho
