    Default carve wheels

    i know i should search..i just wanna know;
    im getting a Comet Voodoo with black crails and hopefully stims
    as my carve/kinda dh/commuter setup
    but i want something really really grippy..
    i want to carve really good

    i was thinking..
    70mm grippens 75a ( or do you think a different duro? )
    70 or 77mm gumballs...75a..i heard i would get wheelbite on 77mm gumballs
    77mm 75a strikers..but i heard they dont grip well
    or big zigs if i can get my hands on them
    or how bout flashbacks.

    duro and size suggestions would be great
    ride for fun

    grippens are the sex for carving as are gumballs. i have heard grippens are better in a slightly higher duro like 78a as they do not feel as mushy

    For a grippy commuter wheel, I'd go with either grippins or gumballs. They'll both be just fine.
