G control hands down.

Great speed. Great long lasting frames.

Replacable h blocks cheap.

Cool colors

Looks good/sk8s good on any sk8s.

arnt costing a arm and a leg like fiziks

Psycho i dunno what gc you have skated. but mine didnt last long at all as soon as i got a good groove the frames just died. and they aint even that fast. but 50/50 balance frames now there good frames. gay slay stfu mooks are real good. your a cunt and i wish you was dead.

ables seem like it would be hard to lock on with becas of the h-block that sticks out like an inch

02.02.2004, 01:35
kizer seems to get the best materials to make frames out of. like the UHMW stuff for the DF and wysong frame.

i like the concept of the mook frame
but the new 50/50 with juiceblocks are great to skate with

well ive got zamoras that should come in any day now and i need some new frames. I mostly skate street and grind, not into vert and gaps and shit. I was thinking about getting some GC but what frames should i get?

RBTRS03
02.02.2004, 23:41
i think GC are good for rails but the dont last long on rails. but get some mooks if you like rails. but if thats all you skate (rails get some standerd frame).

If you came from ground controls, mooks will suck for you like they did for me.

I had mooks for four days and I traded them to my friend the the ground controls you see on my skate now.

Mooks are slow, very slow. Not as controlable as ground controls are, and don't really look good at all... Plus since the groove is recessed so much, the front wheel hits the ledge all the time. o^o <----- sorta like that. The front wheel sticks out very much so I got caught on ledges.

I am in love with ground controls. The next best thing are stock salomon frames. No Joke, they slide so nice.

03.02.2004, 06:11
hmm. i know its weird to adjust to those xsjado frames but they slide fine for me. but i have 2nd gen gc's that i got for free :P.

Ables are the best because they will never crack and they slide the best. also the h-block design is sick.

i hate you, ian rogers
18.04.2004, 14:50
fifty50 balance, gc is a close second but balances slide on everything and the juiceblocks are fucking sick

A friend of mnie has broke wysongs, and 2 sets of ables, and numerous ground controls within the past year. I have broke 4 pairs of GC's right in half in the same year, and while skating street my other friend broke 3 pairs in 2 days GC's BLOW plus all you rail rats need to skate more ledges if you really did then you would not have GC's because the fuckin axles tick out and if you attemp to topside you stick and die. btw Kizer fluids, and 50/50 balance are my favorite they slide the best and have yet to snap on me

fiddy fiddy balance, whats up wit them individual frames, never heard of them

trizzm
29.06.2004, 19:37
i think 50/50 is the one company from which i can always buy a frame and not worry about it's quality. they never made a single bad product.

www.individual.cz ......... but info on web is bad now, I will tell you when it come..........these are machined, individual design for everybody.....make you frames design how u wanna......... thats the idea

KCRolling
30.06.2004, 23:05
kizer keeps coming out with new ideas while other companies just keep making the same product with minor cosmetic retouches
I don't see myself riding any frame other then the armortech in the near future, but I was thinking about those kizer freestyle suspension frames
name one other frame company that makes eight different frame types

kizer fluids.. gc's are okay.. but after a while the axcels get pretty fucked up..

zach friesner

02.07.2004, 11:32
50/50 balance frames are great xsjados are great after you get use to them ables are fairly good i dont like the old style though the new style frame could be alot better the new style salomon frames are by far the best stock frame ever i mean they last forever and skate smooth and fast

insoladation
02.07.2004, 21:09
coming fro gc's to mooks i will say mooks slide slow and they sound horrible when you slide, easy to cesslide with but dont ride good either. Gc's best grind frame, Have yet to try 50/50 after my fiziks i will try some rachard balace frames

dr.suess
27.08.2004, 14:44
ground controls blow...........the axels touch the coping rail ledge whatever ur grinding and slow u down.....kizers axels are counter sunk in an u slide nice and smooth

Definitely KIZER FRAMES

like mentioned before, they have every kind of frames and materials.

With those, you canīt go wrong.
By the way, they are cheap as well!!

Especially those 3rd gen's that slide so good.

thats bollocks! ground controls are shite, they've got the same shitty little black plastic thingies that the bolts go through that razors used to have 8 or 9 years ago. if you skate em anti rocker they warp on big gaps. fiziks are so smooth for riding street and awesome on mini & park. i'm gonna give ables a try next though. kizer are a solid company too. my bros got mooks and loves em.

al dolega
12.03.2005, 12:33
personally i'm a big fan of 5050's..... so solid and strong, strong fast all-metal 8mm axle/spacer hardware, lots of hot colors. just wait for the Core frames to drop this year, everyone's gonna be jockin' em.......

kizer, most frames are plain and simple, you dont needa worry about matching your pink wheels to your pink frames. and second place id go with xsjado because im riding them and love them.

16.04.2005, 03:19
Ables are the best because they will never crack and they slide the best. also the h-block design is sick. mine cracked.. but im still riding them and love them and even bought another pair.. they are tanks.

16.04.2005, 08:52
Hands down the new salomon stock frames are solid, and cheap, but for aftermarket frames, i really like kizer fluids. I havent tried anything by gc lately, but once you get a groove in it seems they die.

haha word i was about to say the same thing. mine kinda cracked, but it isn't terrible and i am still riding them.

Plowman
17.04.2005, 13:02
balances are my favorite right now, but i tried out some GC2 Murdas.. and i might skate those for a while, they have a nice groove.

i want to try out some suspension frames though, they look/feel cool in my hands

Ive been a fan of fifty/fifty since their grindplates . They have excellent service. I had issues with my psirus plates and law hooked me up. The fames are nice and the balace frames and the little grind walls really work. They make my topsides extra tight. My blue frames are the shit :o)

Village Idiot
10.08.2005, 15:58
I love my fiziks. They slide nice on everything and never stick. i hate fluids, they stick on royales, and you can never be sure with what speed they will slide. I like 50/50 too, but i consider gc to be prolly the worst. They are the slowest and they break the most often.

I'm lucky to be Rolling some Create ORIGINALS prototypes and have to say they are the best frames I've skated. Cant go back to any other frame after skating them.

Ground Control has consistently released the longest lasting and smoothest riding frame.
Ive rode every frame they have ever made and Ill continue to ride them,although Kizer is a very close second.

al dolega
06.06.2009, 00:56

No way. I love GC's and everything, but to say they're the longest-lasting frame (grinding-wise) just isn't true. Their plastic slides great but wears pretty fast.

markheuss
09.06.2009, 20:05
best frame for anti would be a 50/50 balance without the core but in the exact same shape as the core frame.

gc wears down fast, but slides nice and smooth.

kizer fluid3 will last forever, but most of the time the screws suck. and it feels a little to hard.

fiziks is a great and fast frame, but kind of sucks for grinding. but when you ride a fiziks, you enjoy cruising so much, you wonīt miss grinding =)

kizer slimlines are the worst frames iīve ever tried. slide fast in a starnge way, dont roll at all, are way to high, wear down superfast and are expensive.

never tried able.

xsjados are strange.

and kizer produces so many crappy frames (excluding the fluid 3)

Chinaski
09.06.2009, 23:30
How do the slimlines not roll? They feel fine for me. Not trying to shoot you down I would just like to hear what you mean by this.

markheuss
10.06.2009, 06:52
the spacer part is made out of a soft aluminium or something like that. it deformed and pressed on the bearings, so they are slow.
but maybe this frame only workes with a flat setup.

Chinaski
10.06.2009, 10:40
That sucks. I guess I haven't ridden mine long enough for that to happen. I'm riding them flat though so hopefully it never does.

Grasshoppa
22.06.2009, 11:42
xsjado its all ive been able to skate since they have come out.

slide faster than all the frames ive ever skated

last for fucking ever even when worn down they stay strong

the only thing i would change is i would put a little bit of a groove in them. i cant skate the brand new without dremeling some type of groove.
