you guys silly.  all wheels get flatspots if you sit on a powersilde/noseblunt/blunt side for too long. 
its very easy to get them out, just go bomb the longest hill in your area and do a ridiculous amount of powerslides the whole way down.  by the time you're at the bottom the flatspots should be gone.  if you're shits still sounds like an AK-47, bomb it again. 

if you don't have any hills in your area, just do like kevin harris and those flatspots will be gone within a few minutes.....



as far as wheels coning(dr. newton),
turn them around(meaning if the graphic was facing the inside, make it so its on the outside) and cross rotate them(meaning take the left front wheel and switch it with the right rear wheel and vise versa) every 2 weeks or so and you won't have that problem.

flatspotting depends on the climate you live in..... i live in a tropical asian country and our wheels ever flatspot....  its always hot here so our wheels dont go all hard and soft since we have warm weather all year around....

been skating these for a while. the middle is softer so it gives you the soft wheel comfort with the hard wheel speed. haven't had any flat spot issues but I try like hell not to power slide to a stop. heard that's what cause flat spots, you might try it...
