| I admire your technical talent slicer, every week there seems too be a surprise you should be sending in to heelys. But anyways as soon as I get my Mega's I'm going to use them indoor. I have noticed I can't manual as far since all of the friction slows the big duece down |

Nah - you'd get used to the megas. I ride a lot on pebble infested roads. Megas work fine. Just take some getting used to.
Megas and Big Deuce use completely difference materials. The Megas are 86A in hardness (called 'Durameter') .. I prefer 99A or higher since I ride a lot of ramps.
Different riders need different wheels. |

Higher than 99A? Isn't that on the order of hard hat plastic and riot shields?
At least your wheels aren't in the middle of the Rockwell C scale.  |

I like the low profile of the Fats. It helps me maintain my story that these are not acutally skate shoes, but "Hover Shoes"(tm) that I brought back with me from the future |

Yeah, I got some 101A .. but I've had them slip out from under me more than once. Just no friction on those really hard ones.
Too bad I'm such a speed junkie.

i got my heelys last june and everyone was like WOAH because not many people new about them. There was this one lady who tought i had fans on the bottom of my shoe carrying me around. The most classic reaction ive gotten is the wide eye  and opened mouth  but now everyone has them and theyre not as surprising anymore |

101A? Is that possible?
Hover shoes! I could go for a pair of those. Sonic Riders anyone?  |
