4wd carvon drive train. its absolutely insane (best board ive ever ridden) but sadly since i dont think @PXSS ever made those kegel adapters im gonna need abec
ive tried
evolve 83mm (rock hard)
abec 97 refly (small contact patch and quite hard still (also 1 of them chunked when i hit a pothole )
evolve 107 (hard and losing a torque at that big)
any other options?
need something grippy and hopefully a little softer (i got bad feet)
thanks a lot and please let me know where my options stand
76a duro is quite soft! Look at most longboard wheel duros and you will find under 80=soft(not too many softer options…). Those evolve 97s do feel really good, i bought a set some time ago on sale to try them. Was pleasantly surprised at comfort and silence and a wide contact patch(yes, these are wide). Boas and tb 110s are the widest but that doesnt mean others are narrow. For your weak feet, try skating more often and invest in good shoes like etnies jameson (my faves). But yeah, evolve 97s are much better feeling than abec 97s but not as durable. Tradeoffs everywhere ya look!!
Not all 76a urethanes are made the same. Some of the other brands compounds are less or
More. The evolve ones are made in the USA same with gen1 boas. Both are good in my opinion.
i have currently 97mm reflys which are 74a. i wouldnt call them hard but they are soft either
could just be my feet
difference is i like to go fast on this board (40mph)
and i need something that wont lose grip as soon as i hit gravel or a little crack in the pavement
