Default shoes suck

does anyone else has noticed that you can't do tricks so good as you were doing them with without shoes, for example my backflip is low as hell when i do it with my shoes. or then i just have bad shoes :/

the only shoes that I find are good at cleats or track spikes, other than that, normal shoes suck and make everything worse

I practice with shoes on, and take them off when I've made a sufficient amount of progress, so everything gets even easier.

I've only ever tricked with shoes on... I love mine. They are like converse shoes... but they are made by a good company. I have the high-top ones on this page - gotta love the ankle support!
My SHOES!
