I got a pair of Black ops wheels from Mr. Pappas in april. I've been pumping a couple miles a day and racing on them and they don't cone too quickly, very durable and grippy. I've been a huge fan of zig zags but I think I'm gonna have to switch soon cause all my zigs seem to chunk after a month of hard riding, the Hspots are still very solid. It's nice to have some wheels that I can really trust and know I won't have to replace every six months.
i have the 89a's... nice but they chatter at a really high frequency.
89? that's wicked hard. Are you skating on glass or marble surface? Mig is the only guy I've seen who can create the kind of down force to make 89s sticky on regular pavement.
I don't know about the chattering, have you checked your bearings and spacers?

Also good for very warm asphalt.
Some people will go even harder.

Out of the box these wheels feel amazing. Best Feeling wheel imo, compared to the zigs, the old spots, even the p pistol wheels. But opinion is opinion. I'm pretty tough on my wheels, but the wear was a little quicker than I wear my zigs. I wish I could throw down money for a new set every time I wore out a old one. all in all a great wheel.

When the surface is tested at over 130 degrees...............no place for soft wheels.
