I have them in 54 and 58 and there’s a big difference in how smooth they feel on rough surfaces, to the point I kinda prefer the 58’s. I’m turning 40 next year. So maybe bigger and softer wheels are a sign you’re in the old man skate club. Because I also have 59mn Bones ATF’s and love those too

Seems like a decent wheel. I've been riding the 56mm X-Formula 97 wheels with Bronson Raws and hands down the best combo I've ever ridden!! Which is strange because I've never really liked Bones wheels. I always flat spot O.J.'s, I chunk Spitfires but I've been on the X-FORMULA's for about 3 months and absolutely no flat spots and no chunks at all!! Not the greatest on rough ground. But still pretty decent. They slide great!! And still have great impact protection for my old legs and back LOL!!🤘🛹🛹🤘

@@likeSK8 thank you for your suggestion. I've been thinking about trying them for a little while now. My buddy got the 58 mm radials and loves them. The only reason I've shied away from them is because I have a bad history of chunking spitfires.

Great video brother 👍 👌 I really dig the little add on to the video, like the cleaning of the bearings. I'm interested in these wheels and thanks for hill bombing and skating over the crusty parts that's my kinda skate preference. This review was detailed and I appreciate it. Stay rad always

I’d be curious to try these for sure. I’ve been underwhelmed with the dragons (I have em on my big shaped board set up). I’d got them for skating curbs, but find that they catch and stick on slappy noselsides and crooks and just sorta kill the curb sesh. I can do those tricks but not nearly as well as on my spitfire formula fours. Even coming in hot the noseslide or crooks screech to a halt quick. I always go back to the formula four conical full. But I do like just riding with the dragons. If these 93a spitfires don’t catch like the dragons on slappy noselsides and crooks I could be very hyped.
