Yep, still have the soles for $15 each (per shoe).

I tried to buy Venoms, wrote an order for nearly US$1000 of bushings and was just waiting for them to get me a price for postage when they just disappeared. i have sent them 6 emails without a reply. Guess they don't want to sell to me. Anyone else getting them direct or is Hop getting them from a distro?

Cheers

Stephen That is just something you can't compare i had nike 6.0's and in about 3 hours of skating on a run about 80km/h of hard foot breaking it was burning my foot, now I've got a cut up Tyre tread it's like no other can't imagine skating without it.

Plus, buying the soles is much cheaper than buying a new pair of nikes! even if they did wear out the same..

When I downhill every week i get about 6 weeks out of them my skate shoes last about 10 weeks with the same use. so 1 $15 sole every six weeks compares well to my $120 shoes with the benefit of pulling out of retirement that perfectly molded shoe that you formally wore the sole out of and now wearing it for eternity with regular sole replacements.

Another benefit is they heat up significantly less then both a regular sole and and to a greater extent car tyre sole (which is fine for luge but will melt your grip tape on a skateboard, felt like i waited half the day last week waiting for jacko to re-grip the back of his board after every other run.

The main benefit of car tyre is durability, they will last a long time but with added weight and extreme conductivity of heat that can sometimes burn your foot (a luge gets away with it because after they brake they have their feet in the air taking in the cool breeze till the next time they brake)
