Hey guys I am looking into buying new wheels, but after reading all your posts about rink rat wheels I am confused now. I have skated on the millenums for about 2 years, never had a problem with. The wear a little fast, but what can you do. I am looking into the dynasty's or the rink rats(but of course the rink rats are not out yet). Anyone have any opionions to persuade me to buy one or the other, price is not a concern

Rink Rats....

I skate on Dynastys right now, but once the RR wheels come out, I'm switching.

The Dynasties are grippy as hell, BUT they do have a few downsides....

First, they wear away fast as hell.
Secondly, they are SO soft that the actual wheel has quite a bit of compression, and it actually can hurt acceration when you're really driving hard....

The rink rats are pretty damn hard, yet they grip like hell. Cant wait till they come out

I agree, while I do really like my dynasties (2nd pair of them) if the rink rats live up to the hype that everyone is saying I am defiently going to get a pair. It sounds like everything that was wrong with the dynasty is going to be right with the rink rats. Just wait awhile and get the rink rats.

I'm starting to get tired of hearing about the rinkrats. I mean how long does it take to get these whheels to the public?

The anticipation is building, and probably a lot of people who would have bought them have gotten the dynasties by now, because they got tired of waiting.

Also myself Michael Hunt, Darryl interbartolo, Steve Yingling, and Rodney Millette will be playing for the Virginia storm this weekend and will have some product at the game in philly for givaways, If you live somewhere where rink rat isnt email me at mhunt@mearthane.com and we will try to help you out.

These are the best wheels on the market, you'll get on them once and become a believer, not only are they the best stopping and fastest wheel, but they also last 4 times longer then any other wheel on the market. and yes they are the most expensive wheel on the market, but ask yourself this question.... if you only have to buy a few sets of rink rat wheels a year compared to a bunch of our competitors are they really the most expensive wheel.

Wheels are on the market in 14 days, the countdown is on.

Rink Rat wheels will change the way the game is played, get on them or get out of the way. Mike

Mike,
Thanks for the information. Where in south jersey can I get these wheels, or will it be better for me to go on-line

Even though he's probably biased as hell, I'll direct this question to the RR rep who frequents this forum. With regard to your wheels coming out hopefully soon, how would you recommend their placement on a High-Lo skate; should I get RR's on the outsides, insides, all 4, or what?

If they outperform all other wheels in durabillity, I'd imagine you would go with all rink rats.
