Cutting off side nobbles on tyres.. Why?

How you guys cutting them off? Stanley knife or precision with an angle grinder?

I just used a Stanley knife, once you get the technique right it gets fairly easy, it does blunt the blade fairly quickly though.

Just the right hand side ones. Who needs them when you side hop to the left??

Who needs side tread for sidehops? Having just centre tread makes it a tad bouncier which helps.

Excuse me, just the side ones.

Did it with a stanley knife, went quick enough. Just watch out where you put your thumb. :')

Haha thought so, glad to hear you like it.
