murphtehsmurf 0 Report post Posted August 13, 2009 Okay good to know. I'm trying to decide whether to use the Red Star or the Mission that _HSB_b345t graciously sent me (thanks again!). Here's a pic of that one. What do you guys think based on size. Wheels are just props to gauge scale. I have essentially the same setup but Quest 2's and Generator chassis (Pg. 84 B) ) I'd go with the Mission chassis I think it looks a bit better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sprungster 5 Report post Posted August 21, 2009 depending on how much you weigh,the soft for front and back might where quicker.No?If the floor is tacky I use my bronze Revisions on toe and heel with my golds inside. If the floor is less tacky or very uneven, I use the golds on the ends and the bronze inside. Having traction on the toe and heel is important to me, and the difference between the traction wheel being inside or outside seems to be enough, one way or the other.

Fandangles_hold the fan 0 Report post Posted September 4, 2009 I was thinking of converting a pair of s12s for roller, just have one major question or concern, would dremmeling the skates be neccesary or could i just use smaller wheels using hummer chassis.

steve66 45 Report post Posted September 7, 2009 My brother has some easton skates mounted to a Hilo, he loves tehma nd they have been really durable, the toe cap is great for inline. When they were first mounted though, the third wheel back didn't quite have enough clearance, so we had to file the outsole by a few mm to let the wheel spin freely.
