    This may sound stupid but how can you use a Hummer chassis with the 80,80,76,72 setup and have all four wheels on the playing surface? Or do the wheels eventually wear down to the point where the chassis/wheels ride flat?

    A 80,80,76,72 setup on the hummer is the only combination other than all 80s where all the wheels touch the ground. They they dont touch by much, but they all defintely touch.

    wouldn't that give you a lot of wheel slip?

    Never thought of that, could go a long way to explaining me slipping more frequently when stopping.

    Yes but would he not be faster with all four wheels on the floor? Also how does going from forward to backwards feel on a frame meant for all 80’s when you have a setup of 72-76-80-80? I remember at one time I skated on my sensors with a 72-72-80-80 setup and it was throwing me off so I went back to what it was meant to be.

    I actually find it alot easier to pivot with 72-76-80-80 than I did with an all 80 set-up.

    I understand that my setup may not be everyones cup of tea but Im comfortable skating with it and I think at the end of the day thats all that really matters.

    72-76-80-80 <-- Doesn't that give a huge forward lean?

    Not really. I have noticed a slight lean due to previously using an all 80 set-up but I cant say Ive noticed anything out of the ordinary.

    A friend who has the same setup as me was speaking to a Tour rep recently and he actually said that the Hummer chassis is designed to use either a 80-80-80-80 setup or a 72-76-80-80 setup so it can't that unusual.
