Equipment Reviews
How long have you ridden them?: So far about 4 months
What Setup are you running them on?: Was S9 "Off The Wall 2" with Gullwing Sidewinders, Doh-Doh bushings and Bones Swiss bearings. that garbage S9 deck broke in less than 6 months so its soon to be a Bustin Strike with Randal RII 180mm.
Typical Discepline?: Carving, Sliding, Dodging kids on my way to class, showing off shirtless for the fly honeys
How much did you pay for them?: 50
Where did you buy them?: blackdiamondsports.com store in Palo Alto CA
What are their weaknesses?: For what they are designed for there are no weaknesses. They are super sticky but they break SO predictably to slide, albeit a little sticky.
What are their strengths?: The predictability is amazing. And after 3-4 months they show almost no wear. If you're looking for something reliable with amazing performance I think Orangatang is the way to go. The smoothness of the ride is gorgeous too.
What similar equipment have you ridden?: Two diff types of S9 slalom wheels, Kryptos
Would you recommend them?: Yes
