Remember when all you guys hated on me when I said tilt is going to make a deck well mark my words I was the first one to think of this and when it comes all you guys will be sorry

You were definitely not the first person to mention this. And I will not be sorry. I will be quite excited honestly

Stfu you were LTS before LTS even came here.

buff core has nothing to do with the speed of the wheel

This ^
I believe it's just how the PU Is made, River wheels have a completely different core design to full cores yet Sliders and Rapids are both slow af but extremely durable. Obviously they have a different PU grade as well so the PU isn't the same but theyre both harder wheels made by Proto. I believe wheel speed is dependant on how the PU is made, many China wheels ride very similar because a lot of them are made in the same factory as each other. Grippers and Glides share the "Buff Core Technology" yet are heaps faster than Sliders/Rapids so I don't think the Buff Core is the contributing factor to the speed of a wheel.

 

[Ignacho]

I had proto sliders and they were pretty slow for me tbh, my bearings were fine and spinned real fast.

 

[zach poon]

I dont notice much difference between sliders and grippers, im riding grippers at the moment and i rode my friends scoot with the blue rivers and it felt so slow

 

[JasonxB]

so what do you guys think are the fastest wheels?

It's most likey his bearings

The blue rivers are the fastest wheels I have had so far

 

[Joe Riley]

Slowest wheels by far were the first Lucky wheels.

Fastest, probably OG Micro metal cores.

 

[Josh Young]

hahahahaha buff core is how the core is machined it has nothing to do with the speed

long story short

Sliders=SLOW
Grippers=FAST

Why do you think every sig wheel is a gripper??? haha

 

[Joe Riley]

Surprised anyone OG even checks the forums still haha

 

[Ethan_]

Only reason why i like hard wheels is so that the shitty streets of nj don't wear them out.

 

[Joe Riley]

I live ten minutes from Cherry Hill, have ridden a majority of the street spots around your area, and we have all the same local parks.. Don't really agree with that lol.

I ride my driveway (which is that black paved tar mixed thing) and mostly cement parks (maple shade and pennsauken) every week in the summer, and my wheels are pretty worn, I hardly ride indoor parks like xpark or incline.

 

[Joe Riley]

I ride Pensauken. Maple Shade is smooth as well. The only park with rough concrete/asphalt around is Williamstown, really.

You won't catch me dead at incline lol.

 

[thealexbuffery]

i live in a place where nearly everywhere has construction going on and the roads/pavements are pretty shitty, and my wheels arent that bad tbh haha

my old root revolvers are pretty fukd tho haha, only think really wrong with my rivers is i accidentally split a part of the urethane while riding one wheel on the back, so i just swapped but thats about it (+ a few tiny chunks in the wheel from bad ground)

but yeah the ground here sucks

 

[Ethan_]

I think it's just me honestly

it may have a demonstrable effect, what im pointing out that it is the only major physical difference comparing to the rest. if you know how they are shaped and you might consider that the concave can make the kinetic energy bounce in other directions other than straight back to the surface of the wheels and the ground, thus wasted energy.
in the difference in alu core and pu hardness it will always negate some of that energy poorly unless by some miracle we can negate the difference by changing sizes, stiffness and shape of cores and again the same for the pu. this will vary from surface to surface ridden upon.
if you can picture how light goes thru a magnify glass, the point of focus of the beam which has the most energy in that point is the point of efficient use of energy.
stupidly complex to some considering the purpose but you should know if you dont, i want go there. why cant we go that far? do we want to? its not a need but it sure is fun to dream of complexity usually saved for situations and purposes unjustifiable to many others
