Default Slide wheels for my setup/ pucks

Well I flatspotted my 72 mm gravity's. I mean, they look like ovals. I can't stretch more life out of them. So I ask you, what wheels would go well with my setup?




Corchia, RII 180's, reds, flatspotted gravity's.


I was thinking about earthwing slide A's. I haven't heard anything bad about them.


Also, cutting board isn't that slick. Hook me up with cheap, slick, durable bucks?



Thanks.

Slide A's and Black Velvet pucks. Also you might want to get a set of indy 169's for the corchia, that style truck slides much better on that kind of board.

Cheefa hit it on the head, get Slide-A's, the reason you haven't heard anything bad about them is because there is nothing bad about them.

black velvet pucks are absolutely the ####, and indy 169's are the best street/park/pool/slide truck out there right now IMO.

The BV pucks are amazing. I thought the difference would be minimal from my Lush ones, but these are just a world apart.
Black Velvet - Products

Haven't tried them, but as soon as my Canon balls kick the bucket I'm getting myself a set

Black Velvet Slide Pucks

Earthwing 62mm Slide A Superballs - Set of 4 - 2688

RII-180's are pretty wide and not meant for sliding. you'll be fine without em but 169's are the creme-de-la-creme (sp) of slide trucks.
