Maybe I'll give the Bones a shot sometime once my leg has healed up and I've ran out of Formula Fours. I doubt they'll be any good for the crusty streets here though.
europe's like the capitol of england and france and whatever
It sucks getting old.

Not sure what you meant by saying that you doubt for bones being any good for our shitty asphalt, they are as good as formula fours? If you want smooth ride here in Finland you have to have soft wheels under 90a duro and both f4's and stf's are hard as rock .... i tried both 99 and 101 f4' and ended up skating bones stf's again....

Hey guys, I'm here trying to choose between a set of OJ's Insaneathane and this new Croupie brand. They are priced the same (the OJ's are on sale) so I'm kinda divided. Safest bet would be probably the OJ's but I also would love to give Tiago Lemos, Carlos Ribeiro and friends some money...

If they are good enough for Tiago, who rides rough brazilian ground, then they're good for me.

does anyone skate oj's as their main street wheel? seems like a really unpopular choice? I guess they make their money of those keyframe wheels and cruisers

I've been into soft wheels lately, I had some ricta clouds, the 86a ones and they were a little too soft and bouncy, plus they were super wide and just felt really bulky. I switched up to some Autobahn Torus 54's, they're 90a and feel just right so far. Thinner and grippy, softer than most wheels without feeling like a longboard.

[close]Regarding the Autobahn Torus 54s, are bearings reasonably easy to install and take out? Thank you for the commentary.
