Are SPEED WHEELS good for SLIDE STOPS?
Показать описание
Today I put speed skating wheels on my triskates.
These are very fast, of course, but they don't have much grip.
And the lack of grip ... I wonder ... will that make them good for slide stops?
Oh yea!
It's almost too much slide. It's difficult to control.
Normal wheels would stops very fast but these just keep on sliding,
and it's almost like I need to learn a new skill.
During the slide I need to find a balance point, else I will just fall.
But the cool thing, I realize now, re-watching the footage is that
I can abort a slide halfway and continue backward.
Here I do just that, but it wasn't planned, it was by accident.
THE WHEELS
The size is 100 mm.
The durometer is 88A. This means they're harder than the wheels you normally find on fitness skates.
The feel a bit like plastic, not rubber, but that's not a problem.
Even on rough surfaces they roll well and don't shake that much.
In fact, they roll extremely well!
Even on these triskate with a short frame the roll is about as good, if not better, than with the Macroblades.
So with these short-frame triskates you get the best of both worlds - speed and manoeuvrability.
Small jumps are fine but there's not much shock absorbtion so be careful with bigger jumps.
THE ONLY NEGATIVE
Lack of grip is good for slides but challenging when turning.
Doing crossovers I had to be very careful, especially on smooth and wet areas.
Feels like ice skating with dull blades ...

Although the wheels I used today are good,
I'm not too happy about these skates.
There are several things I don't like about them and just to be clear - these wheels are NOT the original ones.
Replacing the wheels and bearings did make a great improvement though!
As previously mentioned they are really quick now and despite the negatives,
the upgrade really helped and I will use them a lot more for sure.
But the boot and frame are still not the best, and I'll
explain the details in an upcoming review.
