Bustin Swift 78a



78a.
70mm.
40mm Contact Patch.
Stone Ground Finish.

So I can never find the perfect wheel for me, huh? I seem to always find a new wheel which is better than my previous ones and these are no exception. I traded these for my 84a Krakatoa's and I am so happy I did!




These are crazy, super amazing, jizz-tabulous wheels which may as well be called 'Blue Steeze'.
These things are the perfect balance of buttery and icey, I though I love buttery wheels and hated icey wheels, but because these are right between the two, I/m at a loss. They are so smooth, yet have an Icey quality. I guess you could say they are controllably Icey. Ive been riding these wheels for around a month, already ovalled one wheel which is expected after non stop freeriding for 2 weeks when on Break.

While these slide super smooth, they did wear rather quickly, Ive worn through about 10mm i suppose in under a month, coned and flatspotted them to death but are still ride-able. While they aren't strictly center set they are offset slightly, so you can still flip them around to de-cone them i guess which is a positive of this wheel.

In conclusion, these wheels are smooth, predictable, sexy and crazy nice for freeride and I give it 4/5 Jizz-tabulous slides.
