I like to break in my wheels on a smooth road. obviously the smoother the surface, the less likely you will chunk. it also means a much more consistent coning.
they sure do slide out pretty damn well tho.

yeh i chucked a set of the red (medium) ones in my grizzleys thats on my Hustler (Rayne drop-thru felxy board) and they felt awsome... they have the full range of turn and can pretty much turn themselves inside out but are pretty stable. If u want them for downhill i'd say go the greens. If you think they are stable enough but want more turn out of them, just turn the bottom bushing upside down

Okk yeah man sounds good I'll grab the Green ones aye, so how much are they costing because i might even get the red as well I'll have to see?

Hi Guys,
I just wanted to introduce myself,my name is Steve, Im 32, I live at Shellharbour and have just bought my first downhill longboard. I was keen to get into downhilling about 5 years ago, after I managed to get 60 k's out of a short street board with indy's and some cockroach ramp wheels and yes I got massive death wobbles but managed to ride them out. The problem was I didn't know anyone who did it or where to get gear, then life took over.
I stumbled upon this site about a month ago, its awesome heaps of info and insight. You guys inspired me and I figure if I don't do it now I never will so here I am. So if anyone is keen to go skatin with a relative noobie in the Wollongong area let me know. You guys know where im coming from - I just want to go really fast ;-)
Cheers Steve
