I'm an intermediate player who plays on an outdoor rink. Does anyone know of good performing wheels at a moderate price? And a good place to buy them. I know everyone has their favorites, and I would like to hear your thoughts.

Well, it actually depends on the surface that youre playing on. For rough concrete, it recommend a Higher durometer. For that, I use the Red Star 86A's. For smooth concrete and roll-on, an 82A or so works well for me...I use either Red Star's or Labeda's there.

Wheel fit is also gonna depend on aggressiveness of skating style and weight. Im a 180lb defenseman that skates really hard, for reference.

For purchasing places, i really recommend epuck.com. They have really good prices and selection, and GREAT customer service. Im extremely happy with all purchases ive made through them.
