Description from the creator

One thing all skateboarders can agree on is that wheelbite sucks. Wheelbite is when the wheel rubs the underside of the deck when landing heavily on one side of the board or when turning sharply. When the wheel gets pinched by the top of the deck, the wheel stops, and you get chucked off the board. Here's a guide to riser pads and a couple other methods to help you kick wheelbite to the curb.
