On way back from park I was doing manuals on carpark and as I touched down on one, because I was going at speed, when my wheel hit the floor the nut just went "see ya" and so did my wheel and I flew about three metres! Ate it badly >_<

I always rotate and tighten my nuts and wheels every month or so, that never happened to me before.

put some spacers in between your bearings, then tighten the fvck outta the nuts. or go to the hardware store and buy some new nuts.

or both

When it said you busted your nut... I thought this was about something else.

Yeaa that sucks man. When i saw the title i thought that you credit carded yourself which i did attempting to hardflip. I always make sure the nuts are tight with my skatetool because for some reason every skate session everything gets a little loose i guess from impact.

eh, you can only remove them/put them back on about 3 times before the nylock wears out. regular nuts, IME, last a lot longer than that before they need replacing

Speaking of hardflips, I was coming close today to them but couldnt land them, so I tried frontside flips and I landed some after a few tries.

My nuts always pop and break. I'm not sure why, probaly cause i tighten them too much. who knows
