| get another deck if u dont have one already if u do save up and buy somthing realy nice dont waste your money on somthing you dont want or need cause fp slim wheels are like any other wheels but i can see you just want to order off fingersized so my sujestion is to get a ramp or get the wheels or get one of the new fingerplant decks and some propaganda tape |

The wheels are made of a hard urethane. You can't squish them with your fingers. They're hard. Just as a skateboard wheel would be on a hardwood floor or something like that. I can't compare it with concrete because not everyone uses that to fingerboard on. |

| Oaks picks up dirt which makes them realistic. Ofcourse you can clean them off. |

| I would classify Oaks as being medium hardness compared to Substance Ultimates (hard), Substance Zero's (hard), Substance THCb (soft), Substance Flaked Edition (soft), No Comply Roll 9's (soft/medium), Flatface G1/2 (soft). |

| First of all, could you try putting some periods in your posts, so they are readable.
I have both Oaks and THCb's and THC's are definitely a softer feel than Oaks. |

| just go find a local place that sells tiles/that sort of thing and ask if they'll cut a granite tile for you to a specific size. Smaller places will be more likely to help - just say it's for a model project or something and they'll normally be helpful |

Tech deck longboard trucks, just joking but Close Ups are kinda soft but they roll horribly. |
