    Default which duro o'tangs

    I'm getting some durians to learn to slide on so I was thinking about getting some 86a but in the UK I cant find anywhere to get them so are the 83a's good enough or is it worth waiting untill the 86a are available in the UK?

    not really the slide is pretty simmilar. unless your a really big guy in which case you might wanna wait just for the sake of not killing them super fast

    86a veryyyyyyyy slidey. Almost too slidey. If you like carving, sometimes your carve can unintentionally become a slide -> ouch, especially when it's unexpected.

    If you ride them regularly, they won't really slide out unexpectedly.

    They are quite predictable if you ride them enough.
    Boards breh:
    Comet Voodoo XL (OG shape) - 50* Calibers
    Carbon Surf Finish Clutch Jailbait - Crails or Paris
    Incline Fro Pick - Ace 66
    Comet Shred 35 - Indy 169s

    Not set up:
    Galac GTCPLDP
    Loaded Dervish

    $70 + shipping for each?? PM me!

    I prefer the yellows but I promise you that both the purps and yellows are damn good wheels. You won't be dissapointed with either.
