powell peralta gslides Review by resolve

Rating

these wheels last - i use them on my cruiser for commutes to work and back.

they knock pebbles and rocks out of the way and are good to roll over rough cracked up pavement.

they simply do not chunk like other soft wheels do. so slappy them to your heart’s content.

they slide given you’re going the proper speed. consider them the goldilocks wheel of softness-hardness. (Posted on 5/31/2022)

Loving these wheels. Review by David

I’m really liking the feel of the wheels. Not too hard and not too soft. Just right! Great for street cruising matched with Big balls bearings. (Posted on 10/20/2021)

The Size Is Right Review by Joe

Rating

The 56mm Soft Slide works really well for more technical (flipping) skating, and also rolls over gnarly suburban terrain. The width is significantly less than the 59 mm version of this wheel which seems to work better for me. Thank the maker, Powell Peralta. (Posted on 10/15/2021)

How are they doing it?!! Review by Matt C

Really like these wheels. Never had a soft wheel so fast! Great for my park which has 10 year old crete. They manage a great balance of speed, grip and slide. I am hoping they release a narrower profile in the future. (Posted on 9/30/2019)

Best of both worlds Review by Scott

These wheels are the perfect cruiser wheels. Smooth, fast and quite, but can still powerslide, revert and speed check with no problem. They slide better than the 92a wheels I was using previously, which is amazing. I have these on my cruiser to ride to work and back now, but if I go street skating or to the park on my way home these wheels are still awesome for that too. (Posted on 5/23/2019)

Impressed with this modern wheel Review by Corgan Pictures

Rating

These are very fast even on smooth park concrete, which surprised me considering how soft they are. I’m impressed with this modern wheel. I haven’t noticed the slide capability, but I don’t ride at extreme downhill speeds. These are great to use if you don’t like the longboard thing, but still want that soft smooth ride. Pairs well with the classic Powell decks. (Posted on 9/13/2018)

Soft yes, but do they slide??? Review by Joey

Yes they do.... I am surprised that that you can get 85a wheels to slide out of the box when not even broken in yet. Yup I tried it, mounted it and slid on assphalt. (Posted on 9/7/2018)

These wheels are awesome! They are smooth plenty fast enough for me in the concrete park, and ride so nice on regular streets and sidewalks on your way to the park! Thanks guys! (Posted on 7/17/2018)
