I have never seen any wheel lower than 78a since the late 70s. Rule of Thumb... 78a to 83a are for outdoor, Durometer 83a and up strictly indoor

@joshuasmith2486 2 года назад

Thanks for breaking this down for me. I really needed that. 😊😊

@angelsworld1733 Год назад

Mine just say 62mm🤷‍♀️ I've used them for indoors for yrs. So not sure if they are outdoors too?

what about a good hybrid wheel? i dont want to keep swapping them out everytime i skate

@mirandamartinez8107 6 лет назад

Nesspie31 I personally use the brand Mini Logo, which is owned by Bones. I use their Hybrid 90a 55mm wheels (larger wheels are available). They are skateboard wheels but they work just as great, actually better. You can get them from skateboarding websites or Amazon for around $30 for an 8 pack of wheels.

@Devaskation 6 лет назад

These -- www.devaskation.com/Mota-Hybrid-Quad-Wheels -- or these -- www.devaskation.com/Atom-Poison-Hybrid are the best!!

@MystiqueRisingSun 5 лет назад

Honestly? Get a second pair of skates. It's easier than switching out wheels all the time....especially if you skate a lot! I've got a set for my local rink, another for the rink on the other side of town, a pair for the skate parks, a pair for cruising around town/hitting the local tennis court, and I'm now working on a pair (shoe build, cheaper than a full skate) that I can use for indoor dance. I'll also be getting another pair (first high boot I'll have had in over 12 years) for distance and outdoor dance.

If I skate it's at bury rollerworld uk..the floors massive..its like a slippy vynil ? Fake wood..perfectly smooth but slippy.. what do you recommend ?

@daniellebetton8365 Год назад

Why no one talks about wheels on sticky wood floors and slippery wood floors. Which hardness to pick.

@bambam6231973 4 года назад

So best wheels for indoor skating grip are? And the best wheels for outdoor skating are?

I agree. I’ve found they are ok for the rink but I’m my skate dance class I have trouble doing the moves. Did you have any luck finding new wheels?

@saraaronzon4562 3 года назад

@VitalizedG 2 года назад

I was curious if anyone knew, but i was debating on taking 57mm 94a aggressive inline skates to my local rink which has pure wooden floors. Just curious if these would be good for that or should i use them strictly for ramps? Or would it just be easier to rent a pair of skates from the rink?

@estherwebber1491 6 лет назад

Also, so theoretically is it possible to buy any pair of roller skates from anywhere and change the wheels on them to suit different surfaces?

@Ricky-tu9qn 5 лет назад

Esther Webber yes

@Devaskation 5 лет назад

Absolutely!

@MystiqueRisingSun 5 лет назад

As long as you start with a skate marked around $80 (U.S.) or more. Roller skates are one thing you DO get what you pay for. Cheap skates aren't good and good skates aren't cheap. But, yes...change the wheels and you can skate wherever you want. :) 70A (if you can find them) to 78A is great for bumpy paths, asphalt, anywhere there are lots of smaller twigs, pebbles, gravel, sand, or slightly uneven sidewalks. 82A to 85A is good for skate parks and other outdoor flat surfaces (parking lots, tennis courts, basketball courts, etc.), as well as most street skating surfaces (other than asphalt).

@parisrousseau9561 6 лет назад

I just bought a new pair of Bauers and it will be the first time I have converted a pair of ice skates. I skate both indoors and outdoors at the park once spring hits (properly). My last skates came with wheels. I'm confused on what to get to suit both surfaces.

I'll be skating on a concrete running track in my park and in NYC streets. What type of wheel do I need?

@elleyj1754 3 года назад

I have skated on Atom Poisons on (painted) concrete and they were real nice. I have used them on a rougher surface such as asphalt and they were still pretty good, just bumpier since there is less shock absorbance. For asphalt I love the Atom Pulse outdoor wheels because they ride smoother on that bumpy surface. I have also been trying out the Atom Boom wheels (firm-pink) and they are ridiculously good on concrete, sport court, coated wood, and I've even briefly rolled in them on asphalt and they are good on all surfaces. I hope you've found wheels you like.

Which wheels or better for hard surface outdoor rink in artistic dance 95 A mm I have taken or not please suggest me

@apossessedsock5223 6 лет назад

I have a hybrid with indoor and outdoor. Will it still work outside? Or should i get an outside wheel

@Devaskation 6 лет назад

A hybrid wheel will function just fine outdoors on a smooth concrete or sport court. If you plan on skating more on asphalt, or for longer distances, we would definitely suggest a true outdoor wheel. Either the Atom Pulse or the Radar Energy wheels are great options for outdoors wheels ;)

@danbo8034 3 года назад

which wheels you can use for everywhere? but not slippery

@glimbotz 4 года назад

would 85a be safe for outside ??

@rbfprincess4846 3 года назад

I skate with my 90a wheels outside fine. Ground just can’t be too bumpy for me so 85a should be pretty good for outdoors. Better than mine.

@sonique70 4 года назад

I recently bought a pair of rollerbones team 101a wheels. When I ordered them it stated smooth however when I received them they were treaded. Is there a big difference between the two? (Skating on indoor concrete rink)

@emmaroberts534 4 года назад

What wheel do I pick for mainly riding outdoors but also probably a lot indoor or should I get different wheels?

@BaptistJoshua 6 месяцев назад

Get gummier, softer wheels for outdoors. These roll right over twigs and pebbles and even cracks in the road, instead of stopping you suddenly and launching you into space.

@hulladaemon unfortunately no, I managed to make a decision on the brand I can get here - Rookies but no available sizes for me at this time. I commented on so many videos absolutely no one wants to help so I keep digging 🤣

@BaptistJoshua 6 месяцев назад

Hello. I live in Cherry Valley, Il. Does anyone have any suggestions for good outdoor wheels/bearings. I just bought a pair of Size 12 Chicago 8601K I believe. They have 805 wheels. I do not know the size of them yet. Or bearing size. I want skates that grip the streets well enough so you do not slide, and that let you ride over small pebbles and twigs and cracks, without launching into space. Any advice? Edit: The skates themselves are also 805s according to Chicago. 8601K is the lot number.

@VictorCruz-gq5bu 6 месяцев назад

If your skating outside, your gonna want a soft wheel. The most common hardness seems be 78a. I’ve been using Bont Jesa Black bearings & they are really good! There are cheaper options out there too, but you get what you pay for. Happy Skating!

@caitwinner6237 5 лет назад

My campus has a lot of gravel sidewalks. What kind of wheels would you suggest for a smoother ride?

@MystiqueRisingSun 5 лет назад

Anything with a durometer of 78A. When outdoors, the only difference in size is really how far you can roll after a single push....larger wheel = longer distance. So, the size is really up to you.
