zig zags slide rad, i actually prefer the slide of zigs over the freerides cos the freerides are kinda icy and they are a lot less controllable than zigs. and you can dh on zigs too

i prefer sliding on freerides but if your going to be doing some dh with them, yes zig zags are the way to go.

if your not going fast and looking for drifty downhill i'd go for flashbacks and theyre still decently grippy. they used to be THE grip wheel back in 2000. but flashbacks or zigzags. freerides are overrated and are poop

bro, EARLY BLUEYS OR SWAMPYS!!!  after being a die hard classic thane fan and going through about 10 sets i tried the early wheels and wont go back. buttery predictable slide, wear beautifully and alot cheaper. if your in brisbane goodtime sell them for $55

swampys are more freeride based, where as blueys are good if you wont to predrift and do cornering as well as freeride
