    Default Coned Wheels>performance

    How do coned wheels impactg performance? I've got a set of moderatly coned flash backs that I want to put on a speed board. Could a coned wheel cause anything bad to happen at high speeds?

    For slalom I would say coned wheels
    have more grip but are slower. Not sure
    if this would be the same for speedboarding
    or if they could be unsafe.

    if theyre coned real bad they might affect your speed, but if anything they might be grippy-er......... cheetos

    ...Kenny Mollica past slalom champ runs coned wheels and he said for quite some time. No one has ever called him slow. (He was running coned wheels just last week in Breckenridge Slalom Nationals)
