A Little Soft Wheel At Val Surf: For What?

Post by Wesley Tucker » Thu Mar 29, 2007 6:21 am

OK. Somebody help me with something. I found this tonight on the ValSurf.com website:

Girl Skateboards Bad Dog wheelset 58mm 80a. $27.95

What would someone do with a small soft wheel like that? Well, besides tight slalom on a mediocre surface?

Seeing that soft little wheel amongst all the typical 97a and 99d stuff just threw me.

Here's the link: http://www.valsurf.com/detail.aspx?ID=3363

Anyone got an insight?

I'm part kickflipper. not nearly as fun as slallllom, but anyways...

boards for filmers. soft wheels dont make noise right near the camera.
