    If your wheels aren't feeling smooth, try some Gillete shaving gel. Lather them bad boys up and shave them down with a Fusion razor. Works awesome on my face, all the ladies comment how smooth I feel.

    Or, you might want to try some 77a Big Zigs or 77a 77mm Race Forms, maybe even some 73a Avilas.

    Do you mean in stores? If so they hard to find because most people are using a 74 or75mm wheel. I have some and not to many guys know what they are capable of. 77 speedvents does not come close to this wheel as far as a cushiony ride. 75 Lime zigs is also a nice feeling responsive wheel that is easy to find. I would recommend limes or s9's for sure.

    Well it beats paying 75 bucks for speedvents. For 52.00 they also will last longer than alot of other wheels.

    Yes, Mile HIgh has them sometimes, but not as of today. Yes, those are them at SoCal Skateshop. Or you can always get them direct from S9 for like $44.

    Tell you what... you order a set. Ride 'em to see what you're missing then sell 'em to me.
