Sick, bro. I came to philly for school from Arkansas and remember my parents' first visit. I also just got these wheels a couple weeks ago! Helps maintain speed on these chunky philly streets. Love to support Reynolds too of course. I want to try 97s next. 93 is too soft for me. Messes with my pop
The 97s are good but like u said if you want to ride on more rough surfaces then I think the 93s are probably better the 97 are just a lil to hard to be more for like cruising I think they are prob better for vert skating
That’s great to hear! New York City was definitely a culture shock for my dad haha. And word! I have tried the 97s but honestly prefer this duro more, but that is from mostly learning on the dragon wheels.
I was a spitfire only guy until I started skating the x formula and dragons, (I still skate F4 in parks) and I realized that spitfire is not just harder in the durometer scale compared to other companies, they are rather inconsistent even among their own lineup. For example, I was on f4 tablets for nearly 2 years, skating them down at least 3mm, and I was shocked when a set of f4 classics I bought later felt way softer.
Thank you for sharing your experience! As someone who has only dabbled with Spitfire’s lineup for a few months, I really appreciate hearing other people’s history with them, especially someone like yourself who has ridden them for a lot longer🤙
If you're looking for an alternative to Dragons, these aren't it. Feels like regular FF urethane. Spitfire always feel inconsistent with duro ratings. I rode them for 2 weeks then gave them to some kids.
While they don’t feel as soft as my dragons, I will say that they feel a lot softer than my set of 97a Formula Fours, especially when it comes to the powerslides.
Getting some good height on your Ollie's in this vid!! Powerslides n reverts all looking clean af too
Dang some phat noseslides too!!
Thank you man! Definitely been trying to put in the work😁🙌

Congrats on your graduation and enjoy the coming weeks, sounds like youve got a lot of exciting things coming up!
Thank you so much homie!! I really appreciate that!
Dude I just got these myself but haven’t tried them yet. I also grabbed a set of dragons to compare. 😮
Ayyy nice!! Let me know how the two compare for you, I personally really like both!
