If you were buying and carrying two knives, would you buy two of the exact same knife? Or would you get two different ones with different use cases? What you are talking about are called twin tails, and are more difficult to skate. Steeper/Longer gives more power for a higher ollie, while shallower gives more distance to your ollie. [VIDEO]
