ok to play without spacers?

[shute 4]

Hey guys i just had to get new wheels but i decided to go back to 608 from my old 688 setup. the problem is that when i was changing the wheels i notice that my old spacers didn't fit and it looks like i need short spacers to fit my single axle chassis. now i don't have those spacers and have a game today so i was wondering if it was ok if i played without them?

Yes. I've played on two teams this summer every game without spacers and I have been fine. (I'm on Spungs) But yes, until you can get spacers, you'll be fine.

Hell no, I've seen bearings over heat and kill the wheel where some boy on our club didn't put in any spacers. I burnt my hand trying to replace them they were so hot.

ive never tried without spacers and i never intend to

Are u using tours?

my code 1's came with those spacers already in the wheel.

i'm using the CCM PF10 skate which has a one axle system that screws into the chassis. I tried it today and seemed fine but i think i'll get some spacers after reading about overheating.

I wouldn't recommend to keep it that way but in a pinch I have gone no spacers and haven't had any problems. Its probably not the greatest idea though if you can avoid it.

Exactly, get spacers as soon as you can, but if its a one time thing you SHOULD be perfectly fine.
