Jordan GU Posted December 20, 2008 Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 I run my tubes hard all the time. For some reason I cant stand them being soft.I have never heard that before lol, you get so much more grip when they are soft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidehop Stuart Posted December 20, 2008 Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 I like more of a roll I think.I'll try soft on my new wheel then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muel Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 Just pump them up to around 30Psi then let them down until they're right for you, it's different for everyone and depends on your weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigamac Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 i ride mine about 35 (20") just because i need to practice landing softly. so in turn i know if im landing soft or hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serj Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 If you are using lower presure you may feel like jumping easyer but the bouncing is not always so good ; with high pressure you will feel more stable on your bike , roll easyer and it's better for the naturals fore sure Serj.
