Product Review (submitted on October 12, 2021):

Don’t get me wrong, I’ll still keep my regular reds in my set of indoor rink wheels because any faster and I will collide with people. But for my outdoor set, these are all I will have. Since I skate for fitness I count miles, miles on road and rough sidewalks. I weigh 160 and could wear out regular reds in -/+ 50 miles from the heat and impacts. The big balls still feel glassy at 25 miles and have a noticeably higher roll out, enough so I had to change my braking habits on sidewalks. They seem to cope with the textured pads at the ends of sidewalks that have made me do a few hand stands, none of that so far with my new big balls. The sticker was almost worth the money alone. It would be awesome if there were a 8mm to 7mm straight sleeve so we could try the race reds in inline wheels (they would work on 8mm axle skates if anyone has them)
