These wheels are amazing. They are great for a sliding deck and are very easy to control. I would not however recomend these on original trucks because they will sometimes loose grip on those harsh turns at anything about about 10 mph, you could slide a 56 inch board with these wheels, they rock!

My wheels before these were 70's flashbacks, which were fun and all, but they coned so quickly. So here I am, with yellow durians, and I'm really happy so far. Don't let the 86a fool you, these wheels are still definitely able to handle pebbles and cracks given their 75mm size. I bought these with the intention of learning stand up 180's, and things have been progressing really quickly thanks to the Durians. These wheels are great for a number of things which may be surprising. I've pumped with them without sliding out, done plenty of cruising and of course sliding. Obviously probably not a good slalom/downhill choice, but you hopefully already knew that. I ordered these with the DBS ceramic bearings, which also rock. They are noisier than my bones reds, but also better. They spin smoother, longer, and hold speed better. Overall, the Durians rounded out my setup: Dervish Flex 2 Randal RII Trucks, loose bushing setup 86a Durians DBS Ceramic Bearings

I received my set of these wheels a couple months ago and they've been treating me very well. Santa Clara is a painfully flat city, so the higher durometer brought a lot more speed than other wheels I've rode- quite a nice surprise. The 86a durometer also added length to my slides. The wheels allow me to do stand-up 180's on flat pavement. The rounded profile of the wheel not only made slides smooth, but also made easy transitions up curbs on to sidewalks.. a blessing when commuting around town. Its a great performance-oriented wheel that's also surprisingly nice to ride around town. Don't hesitate to try them.

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
