I can't remember if it was Speed Vents or Blast Waves, but Richie Carrasco rode those big wheels in the TIGHT SLALOM event last year at the World's in North Carolina.

those blast wave with their round edge drift too much for tight... but Richie Carrasco could drive on a dead rat on his trucks

I've got some coming this week, so I'll let you know....I think they should strike the perfect balance and help with the of the dilemma with GS whether to go 69mm or 77mm.

CBark and Fluitt have been playing with them too.(Vents) In the Black Ops formula. Martin "Superman" Reeves just received a box from Gesmer the other day with a ton of new wheels in them. Zak Maytum had tried some last month. (vents also I believe) With the larger than standard (zigzag, hot spots) cores the vents ride harder then they stated duro, which translates into a small gain in speed. Zak said that they loose their grip too fast. (they wear, round out the edges too soon) The hard side to side edge pumping on a COSS course (steep and deep) causing the wheels to skitch or break loose sooner than say a zig zag. Note: Running the same hybrid course and comparing the zig zag and black ops wheels.

Now all of these guys are pros and tend to ride crazy fast and practice hours a week. Your actual mileage and wear may be different. Consult a pro near you.
