    I like the sergio's they are softer than allot of other wheels but you have more controll at speed. I have yet to try the slide a formula wheels. I wonder if they will slide like my DSB?'s. I hope so dsb?'s kick ass they slide for ever great for speedchecks and distance but I would be scared to try a standup 360 at speed. (I think earthwings will be my next wheel)

    Oh p.s. NopSchools are the worst wheel ever. I would rather ride a pair of zig zigs on my slide deck.

    I just broke down and got the 62 mm superballs. I wish they were bigger but I got them in the mail today and they are gnarly.

    3 mm more and they'd be just perfect.

    the EWs are perfect dont mess with that! the lower you are the less you have to worry about edge pressure!!

    I lie I think the soft duros that the noschools are offered in are great but the sheels are a silly shape for pool and downhill freestyle.
    partially opinion partially due to their huge contact patch.
    They grip allot even in hard duros and they snap out hard into a slide. I think a slightly smaller contact patch would be better for sliding.

    92a's and softer let you into slides more gradually but they are too soft for todays crazy slides.

    The no schoolz are more of a pool wheel imo, they grip well even in hard duros(mentioned above) and they break loose really hard and quickly and will regrip unpredictably.

    have you even tried superballs or sergios? or do you only have no schools and judge other wheels you haven tried?

    I havent tried the noschools, but apart from the sergios, all of gravity's slide wheels blow. I've heard that sergios flatspot easilier then earthwings, although I havent spent much time on mine yet to find out for myself. I have a set of earthwings that I love, a set of sergios that i picked up for cheap and havent tried much yet, and 2 sets of gravity street sliders that arent even worth riding.

    edit: If youre wanting a bigger earthwing, check out the lush cannonballs. They use the earthwing mold, but come in a larger size if i'm not mistaken.
