Spitfire!! Was riding bones and a few late bs and they flat spotted not even one power slide.....Picked up the tablets in 52mm and they’re perfect not one flat spot after quite a few hard sessions! Gonna try out the conical fulls next!!
My favorite wheel is the lock-in but I believe they may have been discontinued. I can’t find them in any shop by me. A close second are the chargers. Levi is so right. They are soft and a gnarly pavement are wonderful.
My very first pro board, a buddy gifted some spitfire wheels to me. I've only ever bought Spits. Never gave another company a try. Since the early 90s. I wish they'd bring back 48mm ! Lowriding!
@@ShredzShop yes I got some. Unfortunately to build my old skool skateboard I had to do something I never did. Try another company. Got me some 50mm Primitive wheels. New Deal Siamese deck with Independent trucks and swiss bearings. It's about as old skool as I'm gonna get.
I always rode classics bit really wanted to try a formula four wheel all they had in a 53mm 99a was tablets and lock ins at my local shop, I ordered the tablets
I rode Spitfire in the 1992 - 1996 years. Once in awhile I would find some kind of metal (lead?) piece stuck in side one wheel. Not sure if that thing was embedded inside it when they made it or I ollied down gaps or stairs and the metal piece stabbed into it. A mystery...
Been riding spitfire 99 since the 90s .. I’ve bought the gimmicks through the years , like world industries devil cores ( anyone remember those? ) and rictas .. ghetto child wheels were big when I was in high school because of Muska .. but I always went back to my spitfires .. had a couple sets in my skateboard tool box , including the “ Blue Meanies” which were my favorite spitfire wheels of all time! Much love from Southern California 🤙🏻
I love the conical full I feel like it’s an all around good wheel for everything I mean I skate street better in them it’s weird but I can legit skate anything in them rails stairs and bowls so I love them but I’m a guy who can skate really anything I mean yes I love to have a setup made to how I like it but it will take a couple of tries and I really can skate anything with any setup
Can some one please explain to me how conical is better for skatepark transition and mini ramp. I saw some where less chance for hang up with conical but, I feel like that rounded classic corner would prevent less hang up.
They're a fairly new wheel! We did this around 6 months before the 97A's came out. Let me know what you think of the 97's though! I haven't rode a pair yet!
What shape and size did you get? How are they working out for you? The street outside my house is too rough for my 99a formula fours. Got some 95a mini logo which roll nice but on the sticky side. 97a might be the Goldilocks durometer
@@drewphifer4684 97 would probably be perfect then I got 56mm conical full and they just roll just as good if not better than my 90a wheels In like rougher asphalt
I am very much a park and bowl rider but I’m still learning in bowls would the conicals be the right wheel for me ? Or is there a better shape I should go for ?
I really like the conical / widest shape possible for bowls. I was skating Burnside a few years back and had some thin wheels on and my board was sliding around all over the place. Then I started riding a wider surface area and it was way more stable at high speeds!
I'd say the Conical Fulls are actually the best wheels for street skating. Especially the 99A ones in like 53mm or so. I strongly disagree suggesting the thinnest riding surface wheels are good for street skating, you'll feel every bump and get stuck more easily. And technical skating comes down more to the size of the wheel, less the shape. The width changes nothing, even when it can increase weight. And is beneficial to locking into ledges, benches and so on. And if you're riding with shock absorbers / riser pads on your skateboard, I'd say the Spitfire Formula Four Conical Fulls 101A are easily the best all round wheel (street, park, bowl, locking into ledges and so on, everything). If your streets are nothing but super rough with tiles sticking out, get 54mm (or bigger, like 56mm) 99A ones instead if street is mostly all you do. Yes bigger wheels will flip slightly slower, but nothing you couldn't work with really. I noticed I really do like the Ricta Clouds 92A for streets a lot too, but at 52mm that I've got they're on the tiny side for when streets get really uneven. Your knees aren't going to love it. And there's too sticky for smooth skate park surfaces, even when they do kind of slide somewhat.
Conical fulls really seem like the best. I have 52 mm formula 4 classics and they are phenomenal in the park. After just a couple sessions I decided spitfire formula 4 are the best wheels. I have some chargers and they are definitely awesome street wheels for rough roads. I can still get some pop out of them. I just picked up 54 mm F4 conical shape. They didn’t have conical fulls. I’m either going to order them online or ask local skate shop if they can get them for me
Great video, but i'm still confused. I skate tranny in smooth concrete parks. I have a small bag of tricks on the mini, far less on the 4ft mini and quick in/out backside grinds on shallower pool coping in the bowl. In other words, i'm intermediate, scared of coping but know i need to get better at it and am thinking of stepping up to a 9" (board from 8.5") in the search of further stability and confidence. I ride Spitfire radials at the moment because I was told I might not hang up as much. Is this true or am i on the wrong wheel? Thank you! Oh yeah, and what exactly do you mean by "control"?
Radials are good for all around skating for bowls and transition I lock in more when I skate the conical full 54mm and up Also the og classics which they make in formula four now. Any 54mm and up will be good for transition. Oh yeah he means control as in turning wise when you speed check or carve it responds how you want it to
such detail, many thanks, informative video as always. ima like and comment on literally every one of your video cause i know how the youtube algorithim works. you ever considered hoping from zones like pewdiepie did?
dude I need help really badly with what wheel from here to get. heres some information that could be helpful: I will not be going to skateparks cuz theyre not near me (so no smooth surfaces) I will be doing tricks like kickflips/ollies in my driveway (which is not a smooth serface) its bumpy and theres some rocks. I mainly ride in the street, which as yk isnt very smooth. what type of wheel should I get from spitfire (like size and the kind of wheel)? I was thinking 53mm or 54mm but I dont know about the style (like conical, lockins etc)
Usually people who ride all transition will go with the harder 101 wheels, they're faster on hard smooth surfaces. The one thing with that, if it's a really slippery wooden ramp, the 99's will give you little more grip on the ramp. Hope this helps!

We're total product nerds and love hearing everyone's favorite wheel brand, durometer shape & WHY?!?!
Ricta. 52mm chrome cores are my all time fav wheel.
Spitfire 99a formula 4 Lock-ins 55mm... basically stone and crack eliminators. Used Used to be Ricta Core 52mm but would never go back now
Spitfire formula 4 Conical 99d 52mm. Best all around performance imo.
Ricta Chrome Cores, I've had the same set for like 7 years atleast
Spitfire 54mm 99a classics
This is such a sick series keep it up guys

I’m tryna ride on a sharper and harder surface so what kind of wheels should I get?
Should I get 52mm 99a tablets or 53/55mm 99a classics? I use my skateboard for transportation and mainly doing tricks.
Have the 50mm, 99a Classics at the moment and they completely kill Bones STF. It is impossible for me to do a trick on Bones now.

Do some soft chargers if you're just cruising around and skating on rough surfaces! They're great!
radial slims vs classic both 54-54 range , for street skating , wich one is the best?
Slims bro, more contact patch on em and that in turn will make the ride a little bit smoother
Can you do bones everything you need to know?
I gotta find this skate shop
for transition and bowls should I use a 99D or 101D? I always had this doubt which durometer to use on wooden or concrete skateparks
Usually people who ride all transition will go with the harder 101 wheels, they're faster on hard smooth surfaces. The one thing with that, if it's a really slippery wooden ramp, the 99's will give you little more grip on the ramp. Hope this helps!
