I def want to try them after a pair of Busenitz Street Burner I had flatspotted in literally one session...I had these 54MM AWOL Spits, and they never gave me an issue. I think it's because the wheel wasn't wide - it was supposed to be better to lock into grinds. I still don't know what the difference between AWOL's and Lock-In's are...Anyone? Does anyone swear by these for their performance? It's kind of the opposite of that Wide Manderson Wheel you see around a lot now...Either way - It's nice to see Spitfire making a splash in the market again. Always rode and liked them. [close]See I had a different experience with these. they flat spotted every five fucking minutes and didn't lock in as well as they were meant to.

When the fuck are these coming out?
Been riding these for a year or so ... awesome. Love 'em.
The formula 4 urethane is set to be released for the summer I heard.They are taking every precaution to make sure the product is top notch.
I've ridden 6 sets, given out a dozen, not one flatspot from any of them.I usually destroy wheels(including bones), I've tried to flat these, held a slide for the length of 2 parking spots,nothing.The natural color will bum some people out, those who don't care will have awesome wheels.

Here is the set I am currently on, been skating them for a week.
I run a shop and I have friends that work for dlx, they take good care of me and my shop so I do my best to support them.Certified dick rider I guess.
Ive ridden both, they plan on doing a few shapes I was told but things change and everything is subject to change.I heard this shape is supposed to be put in production with the formuala 4 urethane.

I ride mostly bones 100's. But I tried Spitfire F1's but I didn't like the feel of them from the first day on. Skated them till they flatspotted 2 months later and got some bones 100's again. Way better for me.I'm gonna try these when they come out. But spitfire isn't doing it for me in the past.

I just want everyone to know that I'm only 32.8% skateboarder, and that's on a good day. The rest is just soy and cum.
