Grind on anything you want....Soapshoes grind on things you wouldnt even normally think of

but if i grind on rough things too much, the plates will wear out faster, right?

depends on what plates you have

Yeah Man grind on whatever. surprised you asked, suppose you just want to keep your (presumably) only pair of soaps for as long as possible.

Gotnicerice, is this your first pair of Soap shoes?

As always recommended, go to a hardware store and get yourself a 2 inch diameter, ten foot PVC pipe for about 10-14 dollars. Practice on that, then move onto higher rails, build up, practice tricks, etc. If you do hard surfaces like curbs, wax them so u don't destroy ur plates
