Will I destroy Millennium Grippers?

[white91 0]

I have been offered some cheap Millennium Grippers (red which I think are xsoft?), being just under 200lbs will I destroy these? I want a cheaper wheel for the off season, then I will revert to the wheels that are on my brand new skates (Rink Rat Hornets XXX).

Obviously the Labeda Addictions would be first choice, but very expensive! Are there some new wheels coming out from different manufacturers to compete with the Addiction?

I'm 220 and I've found the Orange grippers to be the best wheel for someone my size. I'm also on the rink 4-5 days a week so yes, they last well.

I had the orange millenium grippers, but they ended up cracking after 2-3 weeks.

I'm about 200, but our rink has a pretty sticky surface.

As I'm a student right now, the original grippers (the white ones, soft?!) work best for me as a cheap wheel.
