Hey anybody riding these indoors on that slick a$$ park wood?? I just tried w/ new set and nearly killed myself...SO slick. Scuffed them up w/ some hard carves / rub-em-edgez but little effect. Anybody??

I've ridden a smaller size on rough skatepark concrete and absolutely hated them. They were grippy 80% of the time, and the other 20% was slipping out. Too grippy and too slick at the same time somehow. Can't imagine that on slick indoor concrete and wood. Lol

Thx! I was going to save them for concrete parks but not now!! Ya they were scary!! Hell 80% sounds damn good!! I had them holding maybe 30% and only at shallow slopped sh!t. Try to carve close to vert...FORGET IT!! Regardless of speed!

Yeah, i have them. They were grippy, but in quartes they kinda loose grip and slyp. I am talking about metalic stuff.

I liked the one i had. I need new ones for the summer. They will probably be my summer tires. They grip quite well in bowls and such. If they arent for you, get Animal MTTs haha

They are slippery than slicks on snow, on half / quarter pipes & everything else covered with that slick indoor park wood... They are brand new so "scratched" them a bit on the street b4. Looked like all surface crap was off but very little difference. Can't be a pressure thing??? Running at 70-75 psi.

My favorite types for grip were my dehart gums. 2.35, grippy as fuck riding in rain, snow, even over some ice patches. I've ridden them in the rain on cheap metal parks. Wasn't the best, but they did a good job all things considered. They can be a bit ugly depending on the colourway, but other than that they're my favorite

I had Cult Gum Tires. I have em still. They arent that good. I mean they grip okay normally but when i had them, in the wet they almost got like.. buttery? Like they slipped around a lot and when you touched them when they were wet, they felt like slimy almost. They dont last too long. They get holes in them if you ride in less than perfect ground conditions. Sometimes some bad punctures.

Overall i did like them. I may put them on if the weather gets better.

They get holes in less than perfect conditions? From seeing some of the places and spots that Dehart rides I would've thought the tire would be solid enough to handle that shit haha

Honestly? Who gives a shit. Its the fucking internet. I hate all of you equally.

By the way, 2.4 front last REAAALLY long. I have been with it like 8 months and still look like new, id say at least 75%thread left.
