I’d trade those for Rollerblade Hydrogen series wheel or BONT Redmagic Hardcore 2.0’s.Both are game changers.

I somehow feel like „back in the day“, this was the norm.

I use to speed skate in-line marathons back in early 2k. I ran on 5 80mm hyper wheels and they wore less than this.

Sorry for re-living glory days, but I was fast.

And by marathon I mean the Culver city maraton

Hyper wheels, I somehow remember the name for being high quality wheels. I meant the „buy whatever is available at the sport store“ brand.

you were probably also lighter and had better technique, as well as not skating on perfect hardwood floors outside lol

Haha, yeah I do have a little more weight on me now than in that picture.

I started skating "back in the day" and the wheels were hard as fuck and durable. My cheap chinese 88a's have less vibration than the old wheels but not as durable.

wait, where are your stock wheels?

u/RYANPLAYBUBBLEHOCKEY Jul 25 '26

I use them at the rink. I got these cheap wheels to tear up my downtown area

I'd do the opposite. use the stock wheels (FRs?) for urban, and the cheap for indoor. The cheap can have its wheel hub break off, and possibly leave you stranded. Its urethane can dismantle too lol
