Pretty much.

I'm still riding the same set of Slide A's I used at SlideFest. These things went through absolute hell that day and are still holding strong at 51mm. Mad props to Brian for making some toughass wheels!

The complete opposite is true....

Explain to me, how a wheel while gaining contact patch will slide more?

My brand new slide As slide much better than my dead ones.
