At 125 pounds, I can slide wheels for months and wear about 2mm off. The upside of being light.

the rf's are really sick wheels. They last longer than 75a flys but slide just as well and grip a great deal more... really sweet all-around DH wheels.

speaking of the life of 75a flys:

I love my race formulas... (76mm/78a) they're my favorite for sliding. I'm probably going to get some harder ones after I go through this set though (this will probably be a very long time from now... I only weigh 130)

Why's that?

I'm actually really curious. I had a set for almost a year and enjoyed them. I recently traded them for bennets because I didn't need more than one set of wheel over 75mm. Overall a fine wheel. I know we all have different opinions, I'm just curious.
