great slalom front, amazing feel. and the indy design has been around for decades, so they must be doing something right.

Equipment Reviews

How long have you ridden them?: two years
What Setup are you running them on?: 101s on on the front of my slaler. 169s on my s9 pin.
Typical Discepline?: slalom and speed carver
What are their weaknesses?: the new stage 9 plates suck, because it uses that button type kingpin. so you can easily swap out for a longer one.
What are their strengths?: on the 101s they just have a very unique feel to them. super quick turning with a decent amount to lean.
Would you recommend them?: Yes

My indys do everything I ask of them. They feel amazing with Khiros and Rads and Stims on my three Indy setups...

I've been riding Indy 215's since my first Supercruiser back in 98. I now have them on both my Drop Carve & Urban Assault. I notice that they become unstable at 65kph+ but below that they're totally predictable. The turning is sacraficed a bit compared to the Randalls, but the stability is improved.

i just bought some indy's for my new board, they're rad. The stock bushings were so soft, an even after a full rotation of the kingpin, they still carve like butter. i rode randal II 180's before, an they were also good, but my new indy 215's are equally stable, and carve deeper. They're light too
