Sector 9 Slide Butterballs Longboard Wheels - 70mm 80a (Set of 4)

Thought they would be harder nice ride though

The butterballs work wonders. I'm able to slide and powerslide on my longboard. Love these wheels. Altho I wish they came with extra bearings

Great wheel overall, but particularly smooth. It takes a bit to break them in for effortless slides. Effortless slides, by the way, is an oxymoron. These are more transparent though look white in the photo, but I ended up liking that about them. Worth the money in my humble opinion.

They slide they cruise they don't last long but they are great for a fun sliding ride

The media could not be loaded.  They are extremely fun wheels. For me they have the perfect amount of grip and slide! They are fun for sliding when you start going faster because they let you slide and still have control of where you are sliding.

Awesome wheels for power sliding while Hillbombing! Riding like a pro with these wheels on. Don't fear any hill when you know you can slow down/stop at will.

These wheels are a nice combination of grippy and slidely (they feel secure but slides are decently long once you break into them). I'm surprised this hasn't been mentioned in other reviews, but these wheels have pretty poor durability compared with other similar ones ("Remember Hoot Slide" wheels were also an 80A slide formula and lasted me at least twice as long per amount of skating). That said, these are fun and it's cool to see the "thane" lines marking how far you slid, just don't expect these wheels to last long if you're looking for durability.

These wheels are perfect! For a more experienced rider like me, they're great. I'm sure they'd be fine for a beginner too, especially if you've been wanting to learn how to slide or want to make sliding easier. Be careful in the rain though. Although sliding is crazy fun and easy in the rain with these wheels, they do slip a LOT. I would get 70mm and not 65 for speed (and more wheel to core) Other than that, these wheels are beauts.
