They do work like Bones says they should. They slide like a 101a but are a little easier on the knees with the X-formula. They are loud when you power slide which is nice for some reason. Black wheels make you look more hesh too so be careful when the vape moms start flirting with you.
They skate just like F4 conical but a little bit smoother and slide more. They do chip tho

Bones X-Formula V5 Sidecut Skateboard Wheels
I like them better than spitfire 97a. They’re also faster and louder in both park and street. No bounce compared to dragons. I think this is as close to a perfect skate wheel as it can possibly be. Wish there were more shapes available.
