    Nice review Mark, been on the fence about a set of the 90a for a while. Aren't they poured in the same place as the abec 11 wheels?

    ABEC11, 3dm/Seismic, Comet, and select Sector 9's are all poured in the same factory.

    ...my half cent worth. I rode them briefly..I think those of you who have flexier boards would enjoy the wheels more then the solid board that I and others tested Saturday. Good wheel, good price win win sitcheation!

    I have the NNavy Blue ones and the Yellow 90a's ... both are very nice wheels... and pretty dang durable... the blue ones held up to quite a bit of parking block grinding and are still going great...

    I was thinking the yellow's could be good sliders and maybe good for
    wooden parks and ramps.

    Does that sound about right?

    i am sure they'd be good sliders.... may be a tad slow for ramps and stuff...may not, really depends.. they are certainly some good wheels, though and they look like they are made frome cheese!
