Agreed. Probably just a manufacturing defect that's specific to that set of wheels. Try buying new ones. If those don't work, try, try again...you'll get it eventually.

Yes, you've invited all dedicated helpers to swoop in with epiphanies, postulations and educated guesses spouted from the side of their necks. Take notes...


Take your wheels and buddies back to the park and let them have a go on your deck. That might tell you something.

they already HAD a go in my board, and no one slid them
edit:so, all that leads to a conclusion, grippy wheels like my friends(higrades,otangs 4 prez and inheat) slide in the concrete
but my freeride that should slide easier(it does in the street) cant slide on the concrete :S

Sounds like they'd be the ticket for bombing garages and not worrying about sliding out on the turns and eating walls, bumpers, etc..

Ok, letīs turn this around, say that the 86a Orangatang urethane and this fresh new concrete is a grippy combo, so what is the problem? What did you expect to hear, except the then obvious answer: use a different set of wheels?

Beats me, your friends have 83a as well? You have the same types of decks( topmount, drop-through etc..) Are your trucks tighter than your friends?

my friends have 4 prez and inheat 83a, and hi grade, loose trucks as mine, same lenght(36 to 38)
and top mount with same trucks
i just dont get it, i think its because the grippy wheels grip and ungrip fast, making a loud noise and sliding, my wheels dont seem to grip ungrip they just, dont slide
