Introducing the Venom SideWinder!

[Bit Of A Trip]

you can also try to pee when you're sliding to mark your territory.
it's cheaper too.

do it doggie-style.

Hahahahahahahaha: done it, kinda. Was going dh at like 25-30 and marked my hill.

I would be too worried about where it is pointed, and wind when sliding. I could see someone pissing all over themselves.


Oh... +1 for sweet wheels. Got a set in the mail.

[Mr Longboarder]

These are on my christmas list

[PurrCrabs]

[chandler95]

Oh yeah, give the StreetSnakes a shot. I'm like you in that I do not like the feel of small hard wheels. Probably because I never skated shortboards. First experience was big, fat, cushy thane. I've got the Snakes on a couple of decks and like them for my cruising/carving. There's been plenty of reports of good slide properties, if you're so inclined.

This is another great option. 64m/78a and they ride really nice. The GFH Fatties and Chubbies don't get enough recognition I think.

BUMP!
thoughts on the wheels? any new reviews, feedback, etc?

[bagelbum]

Cool wheels, with a more aggressive style than others in the market. Very distinct break point, and once you've broken free you're sliding. Quick transition between slip and grip, with a nice plus of being centerset. Leaves nice purple thane lines. Wheels wore extremely well, from combination of good thane and narrow contact patch.

Only downside is a pronounced break in period, but once broken in wheels slide very, very well. Would like to see maybe one or two degrees up in hardness, since, realistically, they don't have much application other than freeriding.

I love the fact that they're rather soft (80a) of course Powerballs are my favorite wheel in this category..

I need to try amber freerides... I bet I'd dig 'em.

You had trouble with the break-in period? I literally broke mine in in like 3-4 nice colemans.

But i agree, maybe 82/84a would be cool. slide a little farther.

I has street snakes
Ride like a bigger wheel, slide like a harder wheel, they are perfect and I love them

[PurrCrabs]

Very awesome wheels

This photo was taken 2 months ago and i'm still waiting for them to be lathed so i can core them.

why do you need to lathe your already thrashed wheels to core them?

[Terrorsathan]

There's this AWESOME lathe I know of... its called asphalt.

Sidewinders + Clutch Double Tap/New Camel Toe = my dreams come true? Quite possibly.
