(With all due, genuine respect to Liam Morgan and Full Circle) these wheels aren't built for freestyle. Yeah, I know I'm prolly gonna get some comments like bruh these are freeride wheels, they for slidin. I bought these wheels because I'm p sure Natalie Pluto, and Hans Wouters, who are phenomenal riders, recommend these wheels.
For some context, I bought, and received these wheels for 50 bucks, received them on October 13th, 2023, but didn't use them till later, and they broke January 16th, 2024. So that might sound like it lasted 3 months, I never used these consistently, nor skated the month of December due to finals and travels. Yes, they do feel pretty good for freestyle, however, if it lasts 1.5 months to 2 months for its price point, I definitely wouldn't recommend them for dance/freestyle.
Even more context, I weigh 110 lbs and this was its first time on the LY Stratus. Because it's a rather long, and heavy board relative to my weight, I don't typically freestyle too much on that board (nor have I really seen it except Andy Pacemaker, dude's insane)
Out of all my other wheels though, these lasted the least longest, followed by the LY fatty hawgs. Ironically, I know someone who is selling Blood Orange Smokes (66mm/84A), and I'm thinking of giving it another chance. However, I got another post about Cal 3s I plan to write that make me question the consistency of Full Circle, particularly the Cal 3 kingpin (again, I mean no disrespect or insinuations to the company). The main point of this post though, is that these wheels shouldn't be recommended for freestyle and dance.
Again, I know that there are a lot of DH/Free-riders here, and I am very grateful and aware of Full Circle and its contributions to the community (especially as a sponsor of this forum).
