    Talking Grippins vs ZigZags

    ok,
    I'm getting wheels for my Insect Mosquito. I want a smooth but fast ride.

    These will be for carving and crusing

    I love small wheels but if you're riding on sidewalks and such may I suggest bigger wheels? I've run Powerballs, InHeats, and 83 Flywheels on it and they've all been great in different ways. If you're into carving and cruising I'd definitely go with InHeats. They ate up sidewalk cracks really well.

    grippins are a fun all around wheel and are easy to break in, but once you break them in they are easy to slide, out of the two of those id suggest the zigs, but id take what petary said into consideration, a larger wheel will generally let you go longer without pushing, and provide a smoother ride, id get 3dm avilas, bigzigs, or inheats

    i have 81a grippins and 80a zig zags. for an over all wheel, i would get the grippins. They're one of my favorite wheels and have an amazing predicatble slide while also keeping grip relatively well. I reserve my zig zags for when I really want to grip all the turns in DH
