Hopefully formula 5 or 6 gets better, seeing all these mega flatspots. Noone has shit on bones after all these years

I flatspoted some Bones STF. Not to the point where you can see it, but you can feel and hear it. Good excuse to retire them and get some SFW's.

I flatspot bones all the time, but never to the point where they're unrideable. You can roll the flatspots out pretty easy

i skated both. the 99a's are really grippy right when you set em up, don't really need to break em in. after 5 months i noticed small bits of the wheel came out- no difference in how they performed. amazing wheels. the 101a's were super slick at first, once i broke em in they were really well..pretty solid and strong. so basically the difference i noticed was you didn't need to really break in the 99a's

101s were pretty slippy at first.
I've heard 99s are the way to go but I like being able to powerslide at a moments notice.

the 99s powerslide just fine. They feel like how Spitfires should feel like. The F4 99s remind me of the classics back in the 90s when Spitfires were unfuckwithable...

i like the 101's but i am finding them to be kinda too slidey on certain ground. i had the 99's before in full shape and they were too grippy, but now im wondering if its cus of how wide they were? i dont really wanna go back to streetburners, even though 100 duro is nice, but would it be worth it to try out the 99's in classic?

had the exact same problem when i first tried out the 101's but in my opinion the 99s in the classic shape is like the perfect wheel. they slide well when you want them too but isn't nearly as "slippery" feeling on smoother ground as the 101's were in my experience.

I bought some f4 a couple of days ago and have had quite a few chunks come off. They also are cracking in a few places. I love the way they feel, but I was wondering if this is normal for them. I only skate my local park and I'm not to hard on them. I know this sounds silly but I'm kinda bummed on the quality and don't want to go back to Bones.

That's not normal, I had a similar problem with one set of the 101 and they were replaced with 99s when I sent them in. Which I was quite pleased with btw, thanks nate!

is there another shape for F4 99A wheel for the upcoming drop besides the classic and SFW? a tablet or SFslightlylesswide would be nice, but maybe thats just me...

Classics aren't exactly narrow.

Near as i can tell, the conical standard would be the middle ground and the conical full is the SFW
