| Get either G6a's from flatface which are pretty good in my opinion or get them off of ebay. people post there used wheels for like $15.00USD which is a good deal, or go with OlliePop? I wouldnt because their wheels are so BIG! go with no comply.flatface.oaks. or............ winklers |

| >well priced wheels
I think No Comply have the best value wheels for their quality. There are the Minis which are at $22.50 but they do sometimes have sales where you can get decent bearing wheels for under $20. You'll be hit by more expensive shipping and possibly import tax + handling charge depending on the size of your order. Forget this. No Comply offers cheap $3 flat rate international shipping and undervalues your order so you don't get hit with import tax.
Close Up do some good softer wheels for €14.90 and these are what I currently ride. These are from the EU so there's no extra tax on these. |

| Cheapest are Nocomply V6, haven't tried them, but hear good things about them. I like Winklers BRR edition and substance (quartz 2010 BRR ed) Was a lot disapointed by Oak v1, not roundish, bearing slidding of them. Tried V2, they barely correct both problems. Haven't tried RV, but don't want to, cause all the littles things I had with YW/Ytruck/oak policies, and shipping price. I've also tried some cheap china wheels, they were pretty good for the price. |

| the Rvs are a real improvement Grendel....no more bearing moving and they are round this time ......still a little bumpy perhaps, but thats the trade off between plastic wheels and ones made from urethane |

We have a regular crew of at least 4 peoples, but the sessions to come may be huge, at least 10 peeps One year ago there was no sessions, but we decide to meet in september, at the same time Joaquin move to Paris, now we try to do one session each month I often see Jo, we like to hang out, FBing, sometime shooting. He has a so amazing style, it's a pure joy to shoot and film him, trying to get the best shots, and use deph of field in the filming. I've done some nice deph of field tracking today really improve my filming skills thanks to him. I progress a lot thanks to that, and they mostly the only time when I have space to FB (not enought space at home to really set some good space, can only use one rail/box. Edit : and if any of you ever come to Paris, tell me so we can organise a session |
