these wheels are sooo sick! very slidey, but not too slidey. bolted em up to my apex 37 and as lively as that board already is, these wheels woke em up even more. i can still carve when i want, and sliding is a breeze. i'm very happy with them, daddies only took 2 days to get em to me. if you're even thinking about getting them, do it! you won't be disappointed

I wasnt too impressed with these wheels, they carve/cruise very well but when it comes to sliding, with me they're WAY too choppy, i cant do a stand up 180 without having to battle not going into a huge drift! my friend has these wheels on his board and i have the yellow stimulus wheels and the stims in my opinion are a little grippier but when they beak out they are extremely easy to control and slide very smooth

i love these wheels, i agree with the guy below. these wheels are grippy enough to thrash, etc. but slide like a dream when needed to. Just be careful that when you carve too hard because the back end of your board will slide out some and could end up sending you flying right off (trust me i know...ouch)

I have both 80a and 83a in heats and this 86a is by far the happiest and fastest urethane of the bunch. These wheels are GIANT HUNKS OF BUTTER! Super controlled slides and progressive traction loss. When they hook back up you can barely feel it. Very Very grippy though DOES NOT feel like hard 86a feels closer to 82a. Grippy enough to pump, carve and thrash but perform with buttery goodness when asked to slide. Great product, incomparable research done to produce these wheels. Dervish Paris 180s Venom cones 90a (amazing) Rush Ceramics 86a Orangatang Durians/83a in heats spud bear grizzly Bones super swiss 6 ball Venom barrels 90 bottom 83a top 90mm flywheels OR either pair in heats

So I just got these wheels a few days ago and let me tell you i am extremely happy with the purchase. Been riding 78A Hawgs now for a longgg time and once i got on these wheels i was busting stand-up slides on my very first session (never was able to do em before). You might think that since there 86A you can't control them at all and thats simply not true. These wheels can stick just great when you want em to or slide out like a butter if your feeling that. It's hard to say how these wheels will wear but so far so good. The only problem is with all the sliding your probably going to do you might need another set again soon! Overall definitely recommended, just make sure your running some decent bushings like Venom's.
