I don’t want to be stuck to any certain brand. I just want the best stuff, and if it changes, then I can change.

I’d like to see a comparison between these and the slick foamies.

I’d put money on these over those for sure.
Flat contact patch alone wins.

But I would assume the lesser contact patch would do two things, increase range due to less rolling resistance and also soften the ride.

Not sure about either though.

Dude ive plowed over branches on my 97mm…

Yes to the first, no to the second.

Wide is good on urethane. Sooooo good

Ewwww… esk8 Jesus has betrayed the esk8 gods

Seriously though.
I learned to skate on normal skateboards.
I sometimes ride my popsicle board with 54mm wheels on the street. Not something I enjoy.
My roads are shitty. A combination of bad quality tarmac which is also slippery as ice even when dry, cracks and holes that can swallow my Trampa if I am not careful and lack of respect from drivers.
That said, can I ride my 85mm caguama equipped Tayto to work? Yes I can.
It would make for a lot longer and more dangerous trip to any of my pneumatic equipped boards.

I think this is just a case of great expectations.
Obviously people were comparing them to other PU wheels not pneumatics.

Agreed, prob clouds compared to clones, obviously harder then pneumatics. I don’t understand why this is a hard concept and has so much argument in this thread.

Eh you’re making sense. I have pretty good roads in my area in comparison it sounds like, and I want to make it clear that the good urethane like the 110’s is like riding on clouds compared to shitty chinese clones. I don’t know if that was ever mentioned.

Your downhill drawing makes sense, essentially trying to show that there is probably more force going directly down through your feet causing more vertical bumping when you are riding on a flat surface. I don’t know how the downhill guys do it at all tbh, small urethane or not haha

I don’t know how much of a difference it makes but I have never done downhill so :man_shrugging:

Sponsors change too! Just make a non permament/fixed amount Sponsorship. :stuck_out_tongue:

Wtf are those???

@anon54720240 What use does that thing have?

I have ridden both, so can tell you.

I personally do not like big wheels. So neither wheel is good for me but I at least have a bit of time on each one.

Slick wheels are not as soft as TB110. TB110 for me (and my friend also says the same) are too wide in contact patch. TB110 wheels are massive, like truly huge bits of thane that for me also take away that skating feeling. Neither of these wheels make you feel like you are skating, they instead make the board more vehicle like and less skateboard like.

For my money if I was riding exclusively street I say go TB110.
If you want to do both street and off road go pneumatics
If you want to do street and a bit of rough ground but mostly street go SR Foam.
