Changing Wheels for Sport Court

Recommended Posts

I have talked to somebody about wheel hardness on sport court and they said that I am going to need a softer wheel than what I am currently using. I am confused because he told me to use the Revision Platinums and the matrix on their web site told me otherwise, I also wasn't sure what playing surface the matrix applied to. If there are any other suggestions regarding another brand I should look into let me know.

If I do go the revision route I would probably get the 07 Variants

I weigh 167 lbs and I am currently using Rink Rat Hornets 76A

Well my weight is 194 lbs and i use 76a on sport court. actually i use the hornet too so your fine. For someone who is 167 lbs, anything lower then a 76a might be a little to low. As for revision i dont know. Check hockeymonkey and they tell you all there durometers.

it's personal preference. Typically a softer dual pour wheel does better on sportcourt, ala Hornet, Hot Shot, etc. I don't have any experience with Revision wheels as of yet, so I can't speak to that.

I agree it's all personal preference I weigh 215 and I've only used X-soft, never really had a problem with cracking wheels or anything only thing I felt was a was a bit sluggish while coasting.

Then again last game I used Labeda Asphalt wheels on sportcourt and it felt better then the Fuzion. Go with what you want is my suggestion.

you should be using either a plat-gold-gold-plat setup or an all gold.

I am 180 and use all gold, experienced some cracks on my back wheels after a couple games...but I am very hard on wheels. for 167 lbs all gold would be perfect.
