    As much as I love Kryptos, I'm getting tired of the feel. I hope the Urethane has a different feel (which I'm sure it will). I'm excited to see more of these.

    See I don't like kryptos. The smaller core makes the ride feel jankity and unstable. Drifters on the other hand are quite nice for the riding. I like my deathrays, and I've been hopeful for a rounded lip cult thane.

    Powerballs are $40

    Flashbacks are like $33

    EW Freeriders are $40

    RF's are $40

    I hope (estimate?) they'll be in the $40's range hopefully? pweese haha

    That is exactly what I was going for. $40 for a 70mm slidey drifty wheel is a reasonable price. I'll have fun comparing these to drifters and kryptos.

    Wasn't the new formula better? Or supposed to be better?

    I'm riding green gamma rays on my earthwing boomerang right now, and they're pretty dope. They make an AWESOME sound when they slide.

    These wheels look sick... I really dig the colors.

    The sidewinders are the best "freeride" wheel on the market right now IMO..

    I'd agree with that statement. BUT! I am excited about cult classics.

    i think they should be cheaper than the other cults because they use the kypto mould rather than a new one.

    Well, I dunno about that. I never did get what ever it was my sister ordered from his site for my birthday years ago. And she never got a refund.
