I currently have 75a's and can pull off large power slides, but they will not slide long enough to complete any fancy stuff.
What would be a recommendation for a durometer?
I was looking at the Abec 11 70's flashbacks, or the Grippins in a 92A. Maybe a 88A would be better suited to my needs though, and that would open up the possibility of the Gumballs.
Any other brands recommended?
Lastly, how would a durometer like 92A grip if one was not trying to pull a slide, but instead wanted to pull some carves?
Thanks for the suggestions!

I don't really have any recommendations, but I would advice against flashbacks for that use...they are sideset and you will cone them fast. Try to stick to a centreset if you are going to do lots of sliding, so you can rotate them and get a lot more life.
