Equipment Reviews How long have you ridden them?: 8 monthsWhat Setup are you running them on?: Rayne Avenger 77mm Speed Vents Oust Moc 9 Airrs Typical Discepline?: Downhill How much did you pay for them?: 50 Where did you buy them?: thelongboardstore.com What are their weaknesses?: I didn't really like the stock Khiros because they were too dead feeling, but they were still amazing. But once I put in double barrel venoms, I realized that they were godly. What are their strengths?: VERY stable. Even when not flipped at 52* I took them to 40 mph with no problems. What similar equipment have you ridden?: Randals Would you recommend them?: Yes Lime Big Zigs, Saturday, 06 December 2008
Equipment Reviews How long have you ridden them?: A weekWhat Setup are you running them on?: Rayne Avenger Bear 852's w/ Venom 90a Double Barrels Typical Discepline?: DH and Carving How much did you pay for them?: $50 Where did you buy them?: Longboardskater.com What are their weaknesses?: I have not slid on them yet, but from what I hear they're not the BEST wheel for sliding... What are their strengths?: THEY'RE SO FAST. They are noticeably faster than my Seismic Speed Vents in 77mm AND are $15 less. I will never buy another wheel for downhill. They are orgasmically grippy too. I can feel them gripping to the road. I now have every idea why there is so much talk about about this wheel. What similar equipment have you ridden?: Orangatang In-Heat Would you recommend them?: Yes Great Truck, Monday, 17 November 2008
Equipment Reviews How long have you ridden them?: 4 monthsWhat Setup are you running them on?: A 60" cruiser w/ Seismic Blast Waves 79a and Garver Ceramics Typical Discepline?: carving and cruising How much did you pay for them?: $40 Where did you buy them?: longboardskater.com What are their weaknesses?: The only weakness I can think of is that their yellow stock bushings are not great quality. I see that Randal has updated their bushings to the translucent red ones, which are supposed to be much better, so...problem solved. What are their strengths?: Great carving trucks, very stable, make quick turns and very fun to ride. What similar equipment have you ridden?: Gullwing Chargers and Bear Grizzly 852's Would you recommend them?: Yes Great Board, Friday, 17 October 2008
