I've been waiting so long, I think I know now what its like to be one of those dudes that orders a RealDoll and then has to wait 3 months for them to build the thing and show up at his door.
Can't wait to ride 'em!

Post by: Young Satchel on October 16, 2013, 03:33:00 AM: Just copped the "ski mask way" 56mm jawns.

The photos for these are dope. Looking forward to riding them. Will I be forced to defy tradition and ride em graphics out? We'll see...

And Icenine, my understanding has always been that 101A is the hardest commercially available urethane grade for skateboard wheel use. Generally that or 99A are the choices for street wheels.

to me they feel similar to the 99 F4's that I've been skating. I've never been able to flatspot PFC's.

I had the 54mm 101as and the thing I like about the PFCs is that they are kind of a mix between Bones and Spitfires. What I like about Spitfires is the all around feel and how they handle hard carves on slick concrete but the last set that I tried flatspotted like crazy, chunks went missing and wore down pretty fast (good for getting the flatspots out I suppose). I haven't tried the Formula Fours yet but definitely want to. I like Bones STFs because they are fast, hard to flatspot and last forever but, I can't explain exactly why, but they just feel weird, like clunky wood or some shit. In my opinion the PFCs are kind of unique in that they are a mix of the above. They feel really good (like the Spits), didn't flatspot in my experience and are really good for street or slick bowls but on the flip side they wear pretty fast, which was a surprise, and I rotated them often to keep the coning down. They also aren't as fast as some of the other 101s that I have tried but also have less of a tendency to feel like they are going to break free in those ass pucker moments. I don't think you would really notice unless you are skating a lot of tranny.

Post by: vegan*shawn on October 26, 2013, 02:24:04 PM: Just ordered the 56mm ski mask wheel (sorry Isaac I can't ride anything below 55mm). Very excited to check them, will report my thoughts on them!

Title: Re: Prize Fighter Cutlery Photo Series Wheels
Post by: vegan*shawn on December 09, 2013, 10:03:07 AM: So I finally set up my new set up last week, I have to say Prize Fighter wheels are living up to the hype! They are super fast, they grip well but also slide when needed! I have been recommending them to anyone who will listen!!
Title: Re: Prize Fighter Cutlery Photo Series Wheels
Post by: Fletschinger on February 11, 2014, 05:49:54 PM: PFC makes the best wheels. I feel like i am now a wheel "elitist". ive had numerous sets and never had a problem.
