@hoax3 I'm a fan of the powerballs, if you're going to be mostly freeriding I'd go with those. Flashies are sideset and have a wider contact patch, which can be nice for some stuff, but I'm a fan of the smaller core on the Powerballs. Plus, they're PINK
@508downhill how forgiving are they if you under rotate on toeside 180s and stuff like that? will i get pitted harder than other wheels cause of the low durometer.
@hoax3 If you screw up on slides, you screw up on slides, period. If you highside or something then you'll fall just as hard on these as others. That being said these wheels are pretty slidey and slide pretty consistently over different pavement. Not sure if that's what you're asking, but that's the advice I have for you
@RazorMacTavish Thanks man! Josh rides an Eden Sparrow (directional topmount speedboard with w concave in the rear, check out Eden Racing on facebook for more info) with Caliber 44's and Pink Powerballs. He was killing it, glad you liked the edit!
@merks91 indeed they were. rad wheels, heads up on the durability though, they don't hold up too well in the flatspotting department. If you're smart about it and keep your wheels rolling though, they should be good. Josh was doing a killer job at making sure they wear evenly. Thanks for the love, bro!
