Are the 97a done? Seem to have come and gone.
Im on 97 54mm conical fulls and i honestly can't tell the difference between the 99 and these. Maybe I just forgot what the 99's felt like...
I want to fight you so badly richardPlease give me your address ill make it my life goal to punsh your face in

My knees and legs are way less sore skating 97as.

I really love the feel of 99s but looking for something softer for my cruiser setup. ai think I'll pick some bigger 97s. How do they compare to Slimeballs 97a?

The 97a spitfires are great, and Slide very, very well. I’m on classics now, and am hoping that they make them in smaller sizes soon
Whatever happened to that thread with the two rubes scholars getting into a virtual knock out drag out over skinny vs wide i.e. contact width correlating with a better slide?
You can listen to science and read about things, or you can actually ride a skateboard and feel the difference for yourself.My older wider surfaced wheels have so much more grip than thinner ones.* But don't let me stop anyone from making their own conclusions. That was an interesting read, even though I only skimmed most of it.

Coming of 99s I couldn't really tell you the difference between them and the 97s. Bunk set?

I'm still pondering whether I should get those 97d Conical Fulls or some 78a Slimeballs because I really want a softer wheel for my cruiser and minimal vibration/jitter when going over rougher streets. I might just get those 97d wheels for my primary skate setup later. I love the gear madness.

I’d go with soft wheels on a cruiser unless you want to have a proper skate setup that has some cruiser qualities.

Why have my wheels stopped sliding to a screech?I switched some conical fulls over to a different board new trucks + bearing combo and these wheels which previously would slide like a mf are dead and dull. I hate it

They are very hard wheel for trick skateboarding, just not as hard some others. Soft enough to make a difference on crustier terrain.
