I got some new heelys last week. But there's one pair of Heelys in particular that I'm really pleased to have gotten a BRAND SPANKING NEW pair of, in the perfect size for me 
I found these in a store in Florida 
"Can ye giss what it iz yit?"
A big thanks must go to the Great Merlyn  without whom I could never have gotten these Heelys from the USA.
A little video of the box: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OBKh9KzYHB4
And they were on sale at $39.97!  Talk about a sweet deal! Out of dozens of kinds of Heelys I've tried so far, Torches are my favourite kind, and I'm lucky to get standard Torches for less than $100 here, so getting Brand New Toxics in my size for less than $40. . . well, perhaps I've died and gone to heaven

| Nice, I didnt think you can find those anymore without some very hard searching and big phone bills. I still dont know if my torches are better to heel in because its been raining pretty much everyday since I got them. Also Nice Pic I dont think this one will disturb anyone xD |

Mmm, nice Feel free to post more pics of those babys for us to drool over.
How are you liking them now that they're broken in? You still prefer torches, or are advantages to the Pro Series beginning to become apparent (apart from the nice looks I mean?) |

If you decide to run through them, let me know how they last you... |
i tend to not use graphics wheels. but the plates do feel more flat and slower. theyre a bit stiff but theyre skateable, the brakes dont wear down as easily but what is annoying is the laces. how the last one is soooo seperated from the ones near the bottom, makes so taht you have to go up that one to get a nice feel to skate in and destroys the whole really wide tongue aspect. the tongue is really skinny but really wide so it gets annoying and DOES slide into the sides. |

Nice one IGO - 9116 torches were the first proper Heelys I got. The first pair I bought were Size 6 rebels, which kinda sucked as the wheels were smaller than the smallest FATs, and no grindplates etc, but luckily it didn't put me off Heelys, just made me realise I needed to buy a better pair, and after getting some advice I bought the 9116
Only problem is I forgot to STOP buying more Heelys. . . . Another brand spanking new pair of mega-grinds arrived in the post today:
The Silver/Black "Emo" Evo's (9093) will now take their rightful place beside their Yellow Tevo 9092 and Red Spidey Evo 9094 Brothers - Man, I wish my new shoe rack would arrive
Fresh from the box:
Top view:
Back view (with shallow depth of focus)
I thought they'd just be kinda grey/black like 9116s, but the silver seems much more silvery to me, or maybe I just love that silvery goodness. |

| yes i can see how heely buying can get out of hand. BUT if the company stops making them and shuts down you will be able to last a VERY long time before u run out of shoes, think of it as your dooms day stock pile. And if dooms day happens and u survive, all the more obsticles to skate on. |

Aditionally,
RUMBLES ON FRIDAY!!!! |

size 11, i had to refresh the page a few times to believe my eyes. It took a second for me to believe it.
Hey quick question. How long will the torches last with light skating. Maby 1 1/2 hours every 2 or 3 days? How durable are these shoes. |
