retro orange plus (89a)?

[slipNslide]

i currently have lime (80a) zigs and love pretty much everything about them, except the fact its hard to do 360s on them. i thinkin of gettin the orange pluses to raise the duro, so i can slide easier but still have the same basic feel.

i want a wheel that slides well, but i still want grip

would i be better off with otang stimulus, or the 89a oranges?

Maybe check out 70mm 81a Abec 11 Flashbacks....smooth slide but still in a shape that allows some grip.

The Retro 89a Zig Zags were created to be a hard, fast, tight slalom wheel that allows maximum speed when riding through cones...it is not really made for sliding or pre-drifting...its just more of a hard slalom wheel.

you might consider radiusing the edges of your current wheels. makes them a bit more drifty but not as much as you might think. other than that i'm gonna go ahead and put my trust in what brian said since I'm pretty sure he knows what he's talking about.

Don't go above 83a in retro thane is my rule. Anyways, a hard duro in a grippy shape is kinda weird, rather somewhere inbetween? Softer but round lipped.
