These wheels are great cheap Abec wheels but they cone so fast. I don't slide much and still after just a week of riding they were at least 5mm smaller in the center than on the outside rim. They are ill for dancing and mellow carving though

Nice drifty wheel at 75a. Could go nicely on a free-rider. Not so great for pumping as you can slide out, but it's predictable at least. Careful with the sliding, notorious for coning. I'd recommend a little higher duro to avoid that.

Equipment Reviews

How long have you ridden them?: 1 year
What Setup are you running them on?: I have them in 75a
Typical Discepline?: Cruise, Carve, Freeride, Walk
What are their weaknesses?: I hear they chunk easily.
What are their strengths?: Smooth riding on not-so-great terrain. Good for dancers and cruisers. After being broken in I found they have a nice, predictable drift to them; still grip well but not when carved hard.
What similar equipment have you ridden?: Zigz?
Would you recommend them?: Yes
