I was a ricta naturals guy for my first 10 years - they are not faster than f4s of any durometer/size.
edit: I'll fuckin race you!
When was the last time you rode set? Everyone uses different [marketing] formulas these days...the Ricta NRG, at 99a feel faster than F4s to me; I've ridden spits since they launched the OG classic but the F4s feel soft and sluggish to me compared to OJ insanes and Ricta NRGs.
I'm gonna stop you right there, Insane-a-thane feels like skating chalk, are slower than f4s and are a major pain in the ass to powerslide.
Not chalky at all, not even sure what that means...do they crumble or something? Have you actually had wheels made out of chalk? Do they leave chalk lines after you powersli...oh wait you can't
Like I said, they feel faster to me, especially in a park setting, on par with SPF / F4s feel soft and slow (but nice and grippy) in a park setting but perfectly acceptable on streets, especially shitty streets, great rebound.
Can't powersilde? Go faster?
I prefer hard as rocks wheels, which spits are not compared to SPFs, Rictas or Insanes...
But, FWIW, I'm curently riding F4s radial slims.
