 Hey Rubio,

I very much like this video, especially since I was skating downhill myself on Sunday on two Swiss locations. It wasn't quite as rad as your footage but it was a lot of fun nevertheless. Especially since I was skating with my roller skate buddy Alex.

 Oh yeah, Bernhard! Downhill!!!!

Rubio, I'm up for that when I come visit.
I'm going to need some speed. HILLS!
What hardness wheels do you recommend I use?
Also, what size? Been years since I skated big hills.

 Biff, I'd recommend the softest and biggest wheels you can attach to the skates under consideration. I ride 78a on my street skates, it would be difficult to get anything softer. There where rumours about 74a inline skate wheels back in the times, but I was never able to get hold of them. Apart from that, the wheels on my street skate aren't that big and they are pretty roughed up too. I should get some now street wheels.

BTW, you mentioned that Alex has some pretty small wheels on his ramp skates. I have given him my set of Autobahn wheels which I had lying around since about a year or so. Better he uses them than me having them lie around.

 I use is 80A hardness
And as is well 70mm
Kruis Kryptonic of 78A or 80A 70mm
You can also use longboard wheels

Transparent and green, are the best material for downhill for me.

 Nice wheels! And not expensive. I have to check my skates to see which size would fit.

 Thanks for theinfo, guys!
Kinda what I thought, but a second opinion never hurts.

I like these :



Though, I do have some really old school Kryptos laying around that are 70mm, 78a that will do the trick. ;)

 What did you use to make those skate plates?
Not the sliders, just the plates themselves.
