So, with the tournaments coming up, what wheels is everyone finding they like the best?
Intended use is tournament play on a sport court/ice court floor, I'm 6'1" about 90kgs. I don't want to switch to anything that is mini-bearing only. I'm not worried about super-long life, just getting the best performing wheel for the tournament.
I'm currently on Labeda Dynasty wheels (76A).
The Labeda Dynasty II look interesting (Labeda says they come in 2 hardnesses, but i only see them at stores in X-Soft/74A)
Labeda Addictions - anyone tried them? the website only has a rendering
What are the Fuzions like?

Fuzions are great. I have had mine for a couple of months now playing once or twice a week and they are still in good shape. When I first got them the traction was great, very sticky but not so much that it slowed me down. They haven't cracked yet either which really surprised me. I only weigh 140 so maybe thats why. But overall they are the best wheels I have had and I am definitely going to get them again next time.

thanks matt, I have a set of Fuzions in the cupboard, but never used them. I'll chuck them in my bag and give em a go.

Fuzions are actually very good.
however if you are a heavier skater they slip more as they wear down.

Answering my own question:
I used Labeda Addiction wheels at FIRS worlds on a Stilmat floor and found them awesome, the stilmat is a nicer tiled floor than sport court, but these wheels just 'stuck' and had plenty of speed. My new favourite wheel. A bunch of guys from Team USA and Canada also had them on (Johnny Mac, Roux, Hammond, etc) and seemed to like them.

I use Fuzions for the front two, and dynastys for the rear (80/76 HI/LO Setup)
It's what my local shop had in stock when I needed new wheels.
No real complaints so far, been about two months playing twice a week on sport court.
The one fuzion is starting to crack, but the other three are holding up just fine.
