    Default Different duro wheels on a board

    So my friend is getting an Insect and wanted to make it a bit more flashy since the desight is a bit boring, He was thinking of getting the pink bigzigs (77a) and the green ones (80a) He said I could have the other wheels for a cheap price, so yeah, basically want to know if itl have an impact on the way the board rides all around, sliding, carving, and cruising?

    It works great!! Just make sure the softer duro goes on the rear!

    It should give a bit more speed on smooth surfaces from the harder duro up from, whilst still retaining good grip from the softer duro in back (back wheels slip out more easily)
