Re:Good Indoors wheels?!?! - 21:16 10 Jan 06 Hyper 250s I believe, as worn by all good street skaters!!Now I'm confused!

Your orange wheels are 84A which we determined was softer didn't we?? So surely they would be worse for a street skate as they would wear down VERY quickly!

HARDER = WEAR DOWN SLOWER = LESS GRIP = GOOD FOR OUTSIDE
SOFTER = WEAR DOWN FASTER = MORE GRIP = GOOD FOR INSIDE

Re:Good Indoors wheels?!?! - 22:33 10 Jan 06 No Dogsbody,
it's the other way round, the higher the durometer rating the harder wearing, but that's not the whole story, the 250s are outdoor hockey wheels, so they have some grip but can be slid quite well too, the harder compound improves wear.
