    Default What to get?

    I want to get a good pair of Sliding Wheels for my Gravity HC2 (47"). Recommendations? Just for purpose of sliding.

    13. If the Chief is found to be incorrect refer to general order 12.

    I was looking at the Rainskates Yellow Jackets. Have you tried those yet?

    The NoSkoolZ do slide easier than the 98a Rainskates. The Rainskates also ride really harsh (big core, small urethane height), so be prepared for road buzz...

    Mine don't seem that much different then NoSkoolz. They seem to have a little more control then NoSkoolz though. The NoSkoolz will last longer because of the wider contact patch so...just something to think about.

    Hey I hate to hijack this but how would you guys that use RainSkates Yellow Jackets rate them as far as good park wheels? I'm using Sh*tbirds and I'm kind of sick of how slick they are and it's been suggested that I try the Yellow Jackets. Are they pretty good for vert.?
