OK guys, heres a general summary about putting grooves in your soap shoes.

You want your grooves to be mostly on the site of your grind plates, so it will be easier to do UFOs, royales, farfs, unites, all those cool tricks.

You also want to get it going into the rubber of your shoe, this will allow you to "break" and have a lot more control of your grind.

This is the way team relate has done it for years, Ryan Armstrong from team soap told me all about it, and he gave me some pictures to put up, which I will soon.

As for where to grind on to put some grooves in your plates, he said that he actually just started rubbing his grind plate on unpainted curbs. He said "the rockier, the better".

However, you can also use ledges to make some groves. Whatever you guys want to do is fine.

Keep sliding!
