Anyone Looking for Wheels?!

[Titan55]

It has come to my attention that there are a TON of posts about what are the best wheels.

I can give my own oppinion on some. I have used a wide variety.

First off I will talk about Hyper Wheels. I have used Trinity, Formula G, and most currently Duality. The Formula G is a great all around wheel. Great grip, speed, and durability. If you want a long lasting wheel this is it. The one they are comming out with this year is awsome! Next would have to be the Trinity. I can sum this wheel up with one word GRIP! This wheel holds the floor like nothing else. The only problem I had with them is that I weigh 205lbs. If you are over about 190 these wheels will not give as good of a rebound as some others. If you are a lighter skater though, these are the wheels for you. The last one I will tell you about is the Duality. This is the wheel I am currently using. These wheels give me the grip that the Trinity did, but a much better rebound. They are a harder wheel and better suited for players about 190lbs. They hold the floor, give great speed and they seem to hold up very well. I only used then in the NARCh finals. But they look as if they are brand new. Any one of these products are amung the BEST in the industry. I will try to get some info on Assault G's aswell when I use them.

The mext company I would like to talk about is Volcanix. I have used Volcanix up untill about 2 years ago. The fly trap was probably one of the best wheels I have ever used. My only porblem with it was that it just broke down too quickly. They are a great wheel though.

Labeda is the next company. They are legendary for their Grippers. Probably the most recognizable wheel in the game today. But again they did break down quickly. Good wheel otherwise though.

Lastly I would like to talk about Kuzak. I have used their Kontact wheel. It is a pretty good wheel. But oh my did it ever chip. Other than the chipping it gave pretty good grip and rebound.

Well those are my oppinions. All in all the think Hyper makes the best product. And no, this isn't just my bias towards my sponsor, I truely believe that they are the best of the best. I would reccomend Hyper to anyone! Not to mention any of the other wheels I have mentioned. They all have their ups and downs.

I see that you have only tried the "mainstream" wheel companies..

Everyone should really give a try to the PRIME WHEELS...I love the CHEM-10'S...grip, speed, and have lasted more than 140 games so far, and they still don't look worn. I weigh about #210.
I have the Gluon's by Prime wheels too, but only for the front wheel, as it was recommended to me by another skater, since the gluon's are a little softer, I can turn just a wee bit sharper. Stopping almost on a dime too...look them up...j-bo

What about hyper formula G'S 74a do they wear out pretty fast on sport court....I weigh about 160 and usally go with 76a's...any ideas of a good wheel combo for me?.....I also have the labada grippers soft?

I think trinity is what you need, they will give you awsome grip and speed!

As Titan said, go with the Trinity's. I use them, I weigh a little more than you, and I didn't get my nickname for nuthin'
