Michael Stefaun's new Pro Deck from Pool Kings is bringing the bling!  Look at that thing!  Click it to visit the site.

 

Active Image

 

Stefaun's roots are in street skating. Therefore, it's only natural that his pool shape closely resembles the traditional, double-end, twin tip shape that so many street decks incorporate. Michael's Pool King deck is constructed using polymer composites and 5 plys of hard rock maple veneers. Pool Kings claim these are 8 ounces lighter than standard 7 ply wood decks of the same size and shape and retain their "pop" for a longer time as well.

good wheels, i would defiantly recomend buying them in the harder duros though. and they run great on the hyper-carve, so if you like drifting big boards but want grip, this is your wheel...unless tou have money for an abec 11 wheel :)

Typical Discepline?: carving, Drifting (not sliding), and Medium to light DH
How much did you pay for them?: i bought the board complete but they are $32 bucks a set
Where did you buy them?: Gravityboard.com
What are their weaknesses?: they arent slide wheels so dont slide them and complain....but they are great for carving and throwing out mad drifts.so just usethis wheel for its appropraite discipline and you will be happy
What are their strengths?: I have the 82a wheels and they are smooth and grip as well as a 75a but have the ability to drift easily. they are also alot faster than 74-75a wheel.
What similar equipment have you ridden?: none really this is my first offset medium hardness wheel
Would you recommend them?: Yes

they're great for a beginner, who's just cruising and carving, maybe a little downhill. but as soon as you get much more advanced than that, you'll really wanna upgrade.

but heeeeeeyy braaaaaahh, if you're just cruisin the boooooardwalk for chicks, this is the wheel for you, maaaann
