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. |
| KONIXX PURE-X WHEEL HARDNESS CHART | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Konixx's "+" rating allows players to obtain the perfect balance between speed and grip based on a player's body weight and skill level. If you find yourself between two stiffness ratings based on your body weight, we suggest the softer of the two options for beginner to intermediate skaters and the stiffer of the two for advanced skaters. | ||||
| Level of Play | +0 (similar to 76A) | +1 (similar to 78A) | +2 (similar to 80A) | Surface |
| Recreational | Up to 180 lbs | 180-195 lbs | 195-230 lbs* | Indoor |
| Performance | Up to 170 lbs | 175-190 lbs | 190-230 lbs* | Indoor |
| Elite | Up to 170 lbs | 170-185 lbs | 170-230 lbs* | Indoor |
| * - If you are over 230 lbs, we cannot warranty the Pure wheel against breakage. If you are, we recommend one of Konixx's single-pour wheels such as the Pulsar-X or the Catalyst2. Any purchases outside of the recommended stiffnesses above may result in voiding your warranty. | ||||

Way increased controlI just upgraded from my labeda grippers to these, and its night and freaking day (M, 185 lbs, 6'3, bought the +1's) and whoo boy are these night and day.
Everyones talking about speed and grip, so i'll offer a different advantage...control. when I asked my skates to do something with these bad boys on, they just did it. stop on a dime, quick turns, hold when I need it, speed when I need it. found my cuts on offense to be crisp and precise, and my turns when D man to be exact.
Only thing I dont know is how they hold up (just played this week on them) but I'm hopeful for sure bc they're the bomb.
Great wheelsBeen playing roller for 20 years now, and these wheels are by far the best I’ve ever had
The bestStill the best wheel on the market. Longest lasting premium wheel by far. This wheel has top marks in 3 key areas for me. Grip, glide and durability. I'm a big guy at 6'3" 225 and I always use the +0. I recommend you buy your wheels based on your skating style and skill vs weight. If you are an advanced player and know how to skate in a manner that requires more wheel grip, you'll appreciate the +0. The +1 are okay for people that don't hockey stop much and coast around a lot. While the +1 will grip well for a few games but, they will lose their stickiness fast. Stay away from the +2. Again, I recommend the +0 for just about everyone that is playing roller hockey at an intermediate or above level. If you're looking for more glide vs grip, try the +1.
Inline hockey wheelsI’ve bought these back to back. They are great wheels and have excellent grip.
Insanely Sticky on Sport CourtI was very impressed with these after my first use. I play on a poorly maintained sport court tile floor that is known for being slick, especially if you have old/hard wheels.
To be honest, I still have to get use to the grip as my ankles weren't prepared for some of the quick stops.
I'm looking forward to how they perform after a few more games of getting acclimated to the grip. WAY stickier than the Addiction wheels that I just swapped out.
I am 6'' 2'/198 lbs and went with the +1s.
4 Month UpdateStill rolling on these and after some harder use, I've ripped the urethane off the inner hub. The outside has not chipped or broken compared to other wheels I've had in similar conditions. Very well designed wheel and will purchase another set for sure
AmazingI've been a hockey skate user for over 23 years. I've used Labeda's line of wheels along with rink rats. I'm aggressive & the last $12+ Labeda wheels I destroyed in 2 weekends of use, super grippy but the core design sucked. Ripped off the hubs splitting down the center. I'm 155-165 lbs and I always use an extremely soft wheel for the stopping and corner grip. These Konixx have been my absolute favorite wheels I've ever skated on. I run a rocker setup & first time out, they instantly felt different. The grip is insane, the way they roll over feels completely different than the high-end Labeda wheels. It's very difficult to describe more of a sense than a feeling. I skate 3-4 times a week, 4 hr sessions, been rolling on these for about 3 months now and they have been holding up fantastic. These are expensive in comparison to other wheels, Trust me. These are 100% worth the cost.
