The Red Graphic 78A ones are one of best wheels I've ridden for straight line bombing, it's my secret wheels for gettin' passed Niko D on our straight fast hills up here in quebec

Oh ya, i forgot to say that ghost thane is really really fast. Arguably the fastest thane around, but almost worthless unless its straight because it doesnt grip.

Autumn-coloured bushes eat graphics. It's already happened with the DS as you can see.

I really like them especially in colder weather where I have found them to outperform some of the stickier wheels

How you likin the Cindys?

[FaceVsAsphalt]

Only gotten to go about 35 on them, but so far I love them. They feel great through sweepers.

Sweet.
The 0* really makes for a stable ass end. Im running 10/0 on my Mercado and 10/5 on my Asym. I think I'll probably go with 10/10 on my NOLA Freeride (when it's done). I'm liking just riding Indys again. It's what I learned on, and probably what I'll retire on.
I rode my buddy's board with Crails the other day and I was pretty off kilter. I went to speedcheck and the board just GRIPPED, then broke free, then gripped HARD. Took some getting used to again.
