    Default Earthwing Slide A's sizes?

    Just curious, I've been wanting to get into tech sliding and was looking to see if there were any larger sizes of the Earthwing Slide A's other than 62mm. So far I've been using 83a durains and I'm pretty comfortable for the size because changing to 62mm will really be a downer on speed...I heard they were considering to make a 70mm, but are any larger sizes available in the market?

    oh btw, I was going to make these my main wheels on my dervish lol. Sounds like an odd board for tech sliding, but its all I got, do you think its possible?

    no i dont think they have bigger sizes

    if you wanted to get larger wheels that arent slide as u could get no skools or strikers
    or powerballs

    find the old 72mm Gravity Super Sliders in 96a... + they should be pretty cheap


    other than that, get used to smaller wheels

    maybe retro vertz, 65mm 96a, powell mini cubic 64mm 97a also look nice
    not too many big high duro wheels out there.
    you could get 70mm 89a zigzags orange+ and radius them, could be hard enough to tech slide

    just get yourself some 65mm Bigstingers and enjoy that extra 3mm mental boost.

    Slide A's are better worn down to 60mm or less anyway.

    But I gotta add that PowellBombers where a really big wheel back in the day.
    If you can get your hands on some those, they'd be real fun.
