i went for a little night cruise on some radial full, 56, 99s. the wide helped, they still feel like skateboard wheels, which is nice.
many years ago, when i should have been forced to take a breathalyzer before stepping on my board, i setup a wide hill bomber with some soft wheels. went to speed check, instead just carved and accelerated. slam.
the roads in my parts are pretty jacked. should i just stick it out with the 99s, or try something softer?
the majority of the talk around the softer wheels, unless i’ve missed it, seems to come from the perspective of skating parks, curbs, etc.
what would someone recommend for very old roads/hills?
i tried rough riders, long ago, for just flatground long distance, and they were nice enough for that. one of the kids has some powell g wheels, the other has keyframes, all seem a bit too soft for speed checks, but maybe i’m wrong on that
