was a blast watchin ya skate, Marcus!

[wheelbasemag]

yeah, that'll happen. We suggest rotation the back to the front and from one side to the other as they wear. We hope this helps. Roll on!

Glad I found this! Definitely gonna pick a set up now!

Love these wheels. 78As make huge thanelines and leave a lot of thane on trucks/deck, they slow you down in slide quite a bit, they are gone pretty fast too. 82As huge thanelins, they don't leave much thane on trucks/deck, they don't slow you down that much and they last a bit longer. If you like painting the roads, definitely great wheels, when they're fresh you can even take em down a hill for fast freeride. :)

[wheelbasemag]

its a chopped JustLongBoards DH deck from Arizona. Not sure if they are still pressing boards anymore

I want to get a Landyatchz Wolfshark and set it up for freeride and slides. I want a wheel that breaks loose really easily. I've ridden my friends Earthwing with Obomber wheels, and I like those wheels, but they are discontinued. Any other recommendations?

[Leleodois]

@wheelbasemag isn't it a chopped JustLongBoards DH deck from Arizona?

[GITLongboarding]

Do these have a long break in period before they become buttery? I have a set of green 78a's and they're a bit choppy

[aznsurf]

metro motions 80a blues. youll love em

[theloltornado]

Do you think i should get the 82a or the 78a wheels. I'm getting a lot more into some faster freeride but i still do a lot of slower stuff as well and i was just wondering what you guys think would work best for me. I'm leaning towards the 82a's at this point but i thought i should ask, Thanks.

[Livingformusic]

What's the best between 78a and 82a for big stands, checks, and nice freeride?!

[JustinRosenthaI]

Would you say they are similar to the Abec Flashbacks?

[bobomomo]

will theese slow you down allot when you slide?
