These wheels come with a wierd mold lip on the inside of the wheel, so to break them in, do a couple colemans. Once broken in these wheels slide really nice, they are about the same as classic freerides. One downer of these wheels is that they wear down pretty quickly since they are 78a. All in all an amazing slide wheel.

Actually the Fishballs were classic thane. You can get this shape in the Reflex than in the Retro Freeride in three different duros: 80a, 83a, and 86a. Chaput does have a freeride wheel in the works that uses the classic thane. Powerballs use the classic thane, but are only available in 78a and in pink. Basically it'll be a powerball in different duros and colors. Hope that helped.

apparently silverfish and abec11 collaborated at one point and made these wheels called fishballs. apparently they share their shape and profile with these powerballs, but are tweaked a little for controlled slides by using the reflex urethane formula, some different duro choices, and a little help from chris chaput. I've been wondering whether I might be able to get my hands on a set of these but it seems like since they only did a limited run, i might not be able to find any. If daddies or anyone knows where I might be able to source some fishballs just write back here. I'd be extremely grateful for any help or even just for someone to tell me " not a chance man they're all out". The powerballs are a great all around wheel and that reflex thane's level of traction and wear life makes you think you're riding a 78 when you're on 81's so the fishballs seem like they just couldn't get any better.
