If anyone's interested I've recently uploaded a updated review with these wheels after using them for 12 months! - ruclips.net/video/TEzgxgzVZi0/видео.html
I was looking for really hard wheels for my board, and man I gotta say you blew it out of the park with this vid. At first I thought it was going to suck cause it only had 200 views, but nope it was everything I was looking for. Detail after details man, you got literately everything. Now I know exactly what I want and have confidence I will love these wheels. Glad to be here before you get big. Keep making them man your doing an outstanding job.
@@Skiddyskates Cheers mate, it's a BenQ colour grading monitor. I pretty much only use it for grading and as a preview monitor and the widescreen for my timelines.
Dude this video was awesome. For some youtubers it takes years to achieve this level of quality but you just nailed it! I really liked your opinion on these wheels, but i’m thinking of getting some softer ones. If you could review some 60mm 70-80a I would love it!
Just bought some of these on the strength of this video. I’m going to learn to skate vert my self this year and funnily enough it will be at ramp city! Maybe see ya there. Cheers for this.
Just subscribed and thanks for this video. I have just got the caballero spf 84b. I mainly skate mini ramp and wanted a wheel that had a bit of skid about it as i really wanna get down reverts from a drop in etc. They still feel a bit sticky to me i can't quite get the revert down
I had to rewatch to see why you wouldn't recommend them for bowls but when you put the speed and grip on the pros list. But the word "wooden" was substantial. I only ride concrete bowls and absolutely love them. So fast yet grippy on the transition. But as soon as I feel a single raindrop I stop riding.
I need a recommendation for wheels. Around 53-56mm and I skate mostly park but I do a decent amount of street. Just wanted to know if there’s any good in between wheels.
Have you tried asking Jackie? In all seriousness, I'm not too sure, it's been a while since i've had anything below 60mm - spitfire would most likely be a solid choice though!
Lewis Farley I’m thinking of the spitfire f4 classics 54mm and 99a but the roads where I am aren’t that good so idk if it would be to hard. I’ve seen some people recommend the ritca clouds 92a but people say they aren’t that good for grinds.
@@freddie9190 I wouldn't think too deep about it really mate, if you're buying from a solid brand and you go for a mm and softness you like, you'll be happy. The spitfires you mentioned would be good enough. Also, don't listen to anyone saying those rictas are not good for grinds because a wheel won't make a different to any grind you do.
Lewis Farley ok. Thanks mate that’s helped a lot. I’m going with the rictas because I plan on skating street, park and just riding and I feel like they’re soft enough for English roads
Hardness, rebound, grip, breakout, and thane...downhill world would tell you they are all different elements on their own. SPF 84b are harder and faster yes, but grip more, more difficult to powerslide than STF 83b and STF 99a. Both SPFs and STFs are more difficult to release into a slide than the usual Spitfires, OG formula or Formula Fours.
I remember 101a wheels from the 1990s, and they were _small_ too, something like 48mm were probably the average for street back then-which I realize goes counter to what you said at the beginning of your video, but that was what people were skating back then. Maybe you remember? THOSE were hard wheels!
@@LewisFarley Haha! But seriously, I was going to ask you something. There must be a difference in the 'A' versus 'B' hardness scales, right? Your review is for 84B wheels, so is that a different scale or..? It's been a _long_ time since I rode on anything hard. I'm not as young and crazy as I once was, so now I ride longboards-the skater's retirement program, haha!
@@bveracka So, from my understanding - the 'B' scale is more of a marketing term by Bones more than anything, though I do believe their 'B scale' wheels are going to be the slightest bit harder than anything on an A scale, so again - B is the slightest bit harder than the hardest A scale wheel but it's mostly used as a marketing term.
Bought 2 sets of white bones wheels One set r gone and last set I still have and would like to find out what they were called I can send anyone an image of them as I can't find them anywhere. I know there old school and have plastic inserts where bearings go if anyone can help me let me know and I ll send u an email with some pictures ,images of them nice one thanks jon Kent
The Wheels i really like are BONES STF V-1-V-5 and 50-55mm I need to Go get BONES Easy Wheels STFs try them out. BONES FAN 100%LESS FLAT SPOTS 100%SLIDE ABILITIES 💀WHEELS 100%😍🤩🤘🤙👍, or some times brabed BONES 100S, IF THEY RUN OUT OF STFS.
Believe me on vert pools or big ramps you would be much better off with Hosoi rockets 97a .....10 times faster ,10 times more control....61mm...fast....
It's really incorrect to suggest the hardest wheels are what you'd want on smooth hard surfaces though. A 104A wheel slides so well, you're going to lose grip on vert. I'd suspect you've gone from one extreme (too soft) to another (too hard). It's also perfectly fine to ride super hard wheels on rough grounds, it just isn't comfortable without shock absorbing riser pads. But for street skating you really don't want to use soft wheels at all, because it means anything makes you get stuck as far as sliding / grinding street spots goes. And reverts or powerslides are something you will want to have access to in street skating. I'm not surprised you liked Spitfire F4 wheels a lot, as they are a great example of how well hard wheels work for street skating and park. People in vert doing longer grinds or slides on coping might want more grippy wheels, but ironically Bones wheels are a bit more sticky than Spitfire F4s are.
you are slightly wrong here believe me there is no such thing and it is a gimmick in skateboarding they go to 100a it is rock hard plastic after that point....b scale is a gimmick in skateboard urethane hardness....
I totally get what your saying here man. I did buy these wheels however and they are basically plastic. Def harder than the 101a spitfire formula 4 that i had been riding. Weird but the 101a seems to slide easier even though it is softer? I feel like even though the 84b is harder the formula makes it stick more than the 101a. Maybe i just gotta wear the spfs in though idk. I have only skated them 1hr so far. Maybe different after a few weeks when i round them out a bit who knows
@@lotwizzard1748 Thanks buddy! Im gonna buy a set and see how they go. Pretty disappointed with the sPf i gotta say. Definitely wasted money buying these

Old video but the quality in detailed description is much appreciated man. Camera work and review was spot on.
Saw you on reddit. Swinging through to show a fellow RUclips skater some love. Really well done video and great skating
Your editing setup as really impressive. What is the monitor you are using to preview footage at the top?
@@Skiddyskates Cheers mate, it's a BenQ colour grading monitor. I pretty much only use it for grading and as a preview monitor and the widescreen for my timelines.
Very nice. Looks great man. Looking into a setup very similar
@@Skiddyskates Worth the investment for sure, just a little pricey (around £500) for the colour grading monitor.

Hey it’s the guy from Reddit here, I just wanted to say thanks again for making this👌
Smashing video ol' man, imma big fan 🙌🐈
Thought these were softer than 90a. Glad you cleared that up for us 👍🏽

I bought some and they feel kinda sticky to me too i wonder if i need to wear them in? Yours still feel sticky?

Well explained ! Keep it up you'll become a good RUclipsr and make some banks out of this!
holy crap why is this video really well made 😂
I'm also a filmmaker 🤓
So do you not have any riser pads? Thought you’d need them with 60mm!
you are killing it on the vert
Hey bro, which is the high of your truck for avoid wheel bite? Do you use those indy with 55mm high? Thx!
Really nice man!

@@freddie9190 clouds 92a stuck on grinds but Powerslides decent much better then even 97a wheels
60mm wheels without riser pad? do you ride tight trucks? I am going to try 56mm wheels and thinking if riser pads are needed.
I've never really used riser pads tbf, I I have tight trucks on my vert board (60mm wheels) and very loose trucks on my street board (52mm wheels)
Hardness, rebound, grip, breakout, and thane...downhill world would tell you they are all different elements on their own.
SPF 84b are harder and faster yes, but grip more, more difficult to powerslide than STF 83b and STF 99a.
Both SPFs and STFs are more difficult to release into a slide than the usual Spitfires, OG formula or Formula Fours.
The Bones SPF 81bs are supposed to be grippier... but one advantage to the 84 is it should be easier to do alley oop 50-50s, smiths and 5-0s etc
You need more subscribers for how well you rip

@@LewisFarley Ah, I gotcha. That's also why I'd never heard of it; I haven't bought a Bones product in ages.
Do you need risers to run these
great info thanx:))
I love this guy
🤎
Do they stay white with the spf?
do you use riser?
Nah, I haven't used risers for years
@@LewisFarley 60mm doesnt wheel bite? how bout your trucks setting? tight?
@@sfndemo6373 My trucks are always fairly loose, though I tighten them when I skate vert. I can't remember the last time I had wheel bite
@@LewisFarley thanks bro. your review got me buying them. SPF. ruclips.net/video/z7vJYhqoLsw/видео.html

P.s due to new hips I've got to sell and maybe just cruise on a long board as dislocated new hips 16 times in two years and they're fucked
..j.k
I don't wear elbow pads or knee pads I just wear a helmet when I'm skateboarding
Oooooooooh you’re such a “daredevil”
Are you a 🧛♀️ 🦇
Buy some risers, loosen your trucks and you dont slip out in the bowl.

There's plenty of 101a and 103a wheels.
The thumbnail makes you look like a franciscan monk
That's what she said
Tried em, not ass good as spitfire formula 4 101 duro
I’m pretty sure softer wheels are for park skating and harder are for street skating
Rock solid wheels are not suited for street really. Middle-ish are the best for street.
Wheels start at 56A, not 1A.
It's really incorrect to suggest the hardest wheels are what you'd want on smooth hard surfaces though. A 104A wheel slides so well, you're going to lose grip on vert.
