My brakes arent worn down at all but its like an obsessive thing that i dont wear them down when i first get them later on i do wear them down so that theyre smooth but not so that you can see the back of my heel |

Yeah, but you forgot to click "Add Option" after you put it in.
I wear down mine smooth doing advanced tricks. It seems like every time I'm trying to learn something new, the foot goes up and the brake wears down.
It's even worse with young kids. Almost every kid I've seen just grinds that heel brake down to nothing. I can hear it grinding almost all the time.
I wonder if HSI would be willing to make a style with no heel brake at all? I mean if we're not gonna really use it and it's just going to get ground down... |

thanx for adding the last option to whoever did so
on my new torches the brake is not worn down at all but look at my other pairs and woah
what i hate is when youg kids do their one foot by dragging on the brake, sure i used to do it too but at least i tried not dragging. however there are other kids who just heely normally and still drag.
i cant imagine a style without heel brake |

On my old pair you could see my heel but I've been careful on my evolution and you can hardly see any wear |
