****in gator skin pros

i have been riding on my friends used (long term front wheel use before i got it) gator skin for nearly 2 months now and skid as much or as little as i like and there is not a trace of threads showing or anything

this **** rocks it

i'll admit its kinda fat and sticky and **** but if you get used to/like it it rocks it fo sho
