The only real downside to these is that there's no bearing core, so on hot days, they'll get wobbly after prolonged slides or from really steep descents. Still, a great all-arounder and can be found for sale at a good discount. Another wheel I'd recommend would be ABEC 11's Flashbacks [70mm, various durometers,but offset bearings], or Strikers (again, various duros avail.). Both of those have bearing cores, are fast, and not too fat for slides.     Rate post 303159 !

(Sergio Yuppie Sliders from Gravity Skateboards). If you get to some rougher pavement, a bigger wheel like a 73mm 90 Duro is what I favor. Try out the Sergios, you will not be dissappointed. Gravity also sells a nice 73 90. Enjoy the Ride-Fail till you succeed- Slide forever!!!!! Lance NCSC P.S.- You can slide all wheels, just depends on how big your "SACK" is!     Rate post 303142 !

On 6/1/2008 Vegasjls wrote in from United States  (24.253.nnn.nnn) My buddy just bought a Landyachtz board and some slide gloves. He wants to learn how to slide but is unsure what durometer of wheel to start with. He feels that the wheels that came with the board are too soft. Any recommendations?

En français peut-être? C'est trop tafiole. Prennez en exemple le DABGER BAY SLIDE CONTEST, good way to establish rules. And try to be equal to everyone, not only the big shots. -F     Rate post 294476 !

Unfortunately, I have never seen a slide competition, read any rules, or know anything about it. That won't stop me from putting on a contest though. If you have any helpful suggestions, written rules, or description of what works and what doesn't -- please send them my way. Thanks, -- Pat     Rate post 293654 !
