@Sponge315 oh, lol that’s not what I meant. I’ve not had ankle issues either, but have found that adding ankle support thru hi tops actually helps to alleviate foot cramping and fatigue.

@Sponge315 You don’t crave ankle support in those?

I actually rode in Frye engineering boots over the weekend! Had to hike a bit thru weeds and grass to get to my spot, and I didn’t want my skate shoes getting covered in stickers and foxtails. I figured it was okay since OnewheelAngel (winner of the W’s Race for the Rail) rides in cowboy boots!

@OneDan OMG that is amazing!

@Franko well, it's hard to tell from the photos, but it looks like the side kicks have a seem down the center (so they are actually 2 pieces). My rail guards shipped folded in half, so they had a bump down the center I had to wait out (about 2 days) before applying.

Also, I wasn't expecting them to wrap underneath-- that detail + the thickness of the material make it impossible IMO to apply without trapping any air. And I can't imagine they will have any real longevity because of this. It seems very obvious that the first time I roll my board with them on something is going to give. As above, I personally would have preferred separate pieces here.

@skyman88 those look better than the FM ones TBH. I installed mine yesterday and was really not impressed

@Franko @BNAS LOL you guys have short memories! Scroll up!

@brahlay said in Installed Pint Railguards:

Also, I contacted support to see if they sell just the rails as replacements and they replied:

"​If for some reason your rails get damaged or scratched and you want to have them replaced we could do that. We would just have you send the board into our facility for the repair. If you were to do that we would not be able to send the old rails back."

So...Just an FYI to anyone else who may have ordered them, I've just been informed that the Dark Green bumper color set is on back order :(

@b0ardski Hmm weird. IDK then because all parts/tools I used where the ones provided by OW.

The first screw I attempted to remove and started having difficulty with (back, right) I noticed looked like just a regular circle shape, so I assumed I had either stripped it by turning in the wrong direction at first or else just from regular wear & tear riding the board these past few weeks. However with the second screw (one I attached) I know I definitely over tightened. I don't think it's so bad that I won't be able to get it off again later, but these definitely felt more fragile than I am used to.

@ooww interesting, thanks for the info! I wonder why they went with it on the pint?
