Sector 9 Wheels

[Jax]

Ok, it's been a long time since I've ridden S9 wheels, about 2 years, but it looks like they've come a long way since then. In skateshops and stuff I always see some pretty decent looking wheels. I remember a few years ago, their wheels were ok, but has anybody ridden them lately? Are they worth buying? What do people think of them?

The Goddess of Speed Wheels, the white with blue or black cores are SICK.

Those wheels are very very nice. It's something between a gumball and a Striker and is made with better urethane than previous S9 wheels. S9 has been using that hub extensively on alot of their new wheels I've noticed and a good hub it is.

My only gripe about those wheels is their limited durometer range: one.

The newer/updated models are poured in the same factory that pours ABEC11 and 3dm/Seismic wheels.

I'll second the Goddess of Speed wheels. I've got a set and they are great for crusing. Smooth and grippy.

Just by a quick glance, it looks like Sector 9 has come a long way with their wheels compared to the ones I have from a few years back. Nice.

Those nineballs on milehighskates look interesting. Anyone tried them yet?

Goddess wheels come in 78A (black core) and 75A (blue core).

What about those 72mm 75a ones? They look pretty interesting.

what about these, dual duro, whats the deal?

[mark grimace]

interesting.

Hard in the middle for speed and rebound, soft around the outside for traction. Kind of like a wheel and tire.

[El Beefo]

Wouldn't it basically be the same a large core wheel?

[chaindog]

yes
but no

[General Specific]

I find them kind of slippy, even in the soft duros but they wear in to an o.k. all round cruising wheel
