Saw this tool in the latest issue of Concussion. Looked pretty cool, so I thought I'd give it a shot. I just made an unboxing video. Check it out if you're interested!

Just a little more info on what the tool is actually made of. I said plastic, but I was wrong. This is off the back of the box:

Fiber reinforced nylon main body with steel sockets.

That is one awesome demostration bro! +rep to you for taking the time to do it!


I'm going on Ebay right now to look for one...seriously!! So thanks, cause that tool is very handy and nifty for what I need for my Skateclasses! (better then the P.O.S. I have now from the early 90's, hahaha)

Oh! nice review! :) Looks really good, hope they sell them here in local skateshops. How durable is it? Seeing as it's plastic and metal I was just curious. I've had skate tools made of entirely metal which have snapped on me before, cheap metal. Any good? ;)

Personally I just use my big ol' set of spanners, but it's alway handy to have a tool for when you're out and about.

Good Review!

I've had skate tools made of entirely metal which have snapped on me before, cheap metal. Any good? ;)My current street setup really isn't set up for use with that tool. The kingpin on those thunder trucks just don't like to play nice with anything but the flat Element wrench. The main reason I wanted to get it is because there's a Gravity Longboard on its way to me via UPS as I type this. I should have it next week.

As far as durability goes, I was wrong about the plastic. On the back of the box, it reads that it's made out of fiber reinforced nylon and steel tips. So, while I'll give it better field tests later, on paper, it sounds pretty durable.
