Sizing Chart
HOCKEY WHEEL HARDNESS GUIDELINES | |
---|---|
Roller hockey wheel hardness or durometer should be decided on factors like a player's weight, skill level and playing surface. The higher the durometer rating, the harder the wheel. For example +2 wheels (similar to an 80A wheel hardness) are built for players up to 230 lbs while +0 wheels (similar to 76A hardness) are designed for players up to 180 lbs. More advanced players can also benefit from harder wheels since they can utilize the extra rebound and speed. |

Good speed but no gripNot a good wheel for indoor sport court for experienced / competitive players. I skated with these for 1 game and durometer is too hard. I weigh 185. Cannot stop or maneuver hard without sliding out. Nice speed but grip is not there for the surface compared to mid priced Labedas or Revisions I've used previously at the same rink.
