Yum? New bollie colours are really great. Grey wheels look really interesting, much like the graphite flatface wheels that surfaced a while ago. Its great that people wanting something other than bearing wheels when they're just starting out can get such a high performing non bearing wheel, and in more than one colour! They have white, black, red, and now grey? Awesome stuff. I don't know what material bollies are made of, but I hear its a really nice ride. Shame I'll never go back to no bearing wheels, else I'd try a set! That's the thing I guess, lots of new colours, we'd all like some interesting coloured winklers now! Or, actually, not for me personally, I love white wheels, but I'm sure red + grey winklers would sell really well! I always thought it odd how that given winkler wheels are probably the most or second most used bearing wheels in the world, they only ever offered three (correct me if I'm wrong there) colours.
Anyway, tangent aside, thats the new bollie wheels, they look great!
Also new out:
Rooftop! You might think 'well thats just two box 4s next to each other!', and, well, you'd partly be right. But, the fact is, its the same price as two box 4s, so if you brought two, you'd save no money. And this ramp looks a bit wider + bigger than a box 4. There's no dimensions on the site, so I don't know for definite, but I saw another picture lurking on FFI and it does look slightly bigger. I must admit I'm a bit disappointed its not the manny mania rooftop ramp they had at kasselost in the spring, that was lower + wider, looked amazingly fun. Still, at the same time, I like the size of this one, as you'd be able to do all sorts of grinds + manuals on it easily. Its wide enough for manuals, but not soo wide that getting over to the other side for bs grinds can be a bit of a reach. I've always wanted a rooftop ramp, so, I'm very tempted to buy one! With that said, I've brought my christmas presents to myself yesterday, so the rest of my money is going on other people, and saving up for a new computer. Maybe if I get any surprise extra money from christmas, this might end up being ordered? Probably, haha..
Overall, its great to see a ramp that so many people have wanted, finally available. And also great to see new bollie colours! Check out both these products at BRR.
