Default Green (95a) Tsunamis? Thoughts & Opinions?

Hey 'Fishers,

So I do a fair amount of skatepark riding and I have been wanting some Rainskates for awhile, but I am not a speed freak, so I was waiting for these Green Tsumanis to come out in 95a/62mm and they are here.
I wanted to get some feedback from folks who had ridden them. I have friends who have the Stingers and Yellow Jackets, so I know enough about them. I am interested in the green tsunamis because they are a bit softer, hence grippier. However, I want to make sure they will slide predictably and smoothly when I want them too. FYI, I ride parks with very nice concrete.
Just want to know if they are that nice middle ground that grips and slides well.

Thanks in advance for the help,

CC

The Tsunamis will serve you well.

Noticeably grippier than the Hornets.

i have yellowjackets because i only use them for sliding, and they are way slippyer than the tsunamis.

I'd just get some stingers. They're excellent wheels that grip when you need them to and slide when you want them to.
