Any word on the new satoris?

[Bugsytootsie]

Anyone try the new satori wheels yet? Loved the old ones before they went into hiatus. Any comparisons to the f4s in terms of feel or durability?

don't ride spits, but I have the satori vinyl cut (Slim) 101a 53mm. Been riding them for 2 or 3 months now and I'm enjoying the, so far. First 101a I've ridden in a while that I liked. I usually ride bones 83b, but I like to experiment. The only other slim 101a I've had recently is crupie, and those were trash. So yeah, better than Crupie if that's enough of a review.

Nice. How's the slide and grip compared to the bones? I've skated a set before

A lil grip pier then the bones, but still slide pretty easily.

[Bugsytootsie]

Legit. Thanks for the feedback. Much appreciated

I briefly rode someone's board with them and they felt a bit grippier than my new-ish 99 F4. Seem fine.

Waiting on a flat-spot report... Thanks!
If I come across some I will pick them up and share my experience, I've been interested in their resurgence.

Haven’t ridden satori wheels in years but I have come across High Grade Distribution’s talking trees brand at my local dispensary. Not bad for the price in my opinion. Sorry to derail this thread but it is interesting the link above they even use satori branding on herbal tea

i am pretty sure the dude Craig that owns satori owns talking trees as well. i have been skating them since the come back and i usually only skate crusty shit. from my experience they have been sick ! no flat spots no chucking good grip when you want it good slide when you need it. good push around street wheel not so hard that your eyes feel like they are going rattle out like bones or f4s. put it this way they feel like better classics.

This is what others have said in the wheel thread a while back too.

They’re still Creative urethane manufactured from what I can tell. That’s the place most smaller brands go to get wheels made. Hate to be negative but I would never pay for wheels made there - guaranteed flat spots. I don’t think I’ve ever ridden a wheel made by creative that lasted a full session before flatspotting. If you can get a crazy deal on em and F4’s or STF’s aren’t available, and you don’t mind a softer feeling wheel that flat spots easy, go for it. I’m sure pros who get them for free don’t care cause they can just keep putting new ones on.

Are they the last skate brand standing under High Grade? I think I remember Creation folding but Upful hardware, Yellow brand, looks like even paradox grip was under them for a while

I have no idea. I just live up the street other than the new wheels, I haven't seen those products locally in a minute, but then again I'm not looking. They used to have pretty epic warehouse sales though. 215 halcyon days
