The Spitfire 80HD Chargers Classic skateboard wheels are soft, smooth and promise lasting speed. Spitfire's 80HD formula prevents unwanted flex that occurs in other wheels of the same durometer. Essentially these wheels won't flex like most soft wheels, giving you the best of both worlds and a crazy smooth ride.

I got this set to try out between my Slimeballs and Hot Juice to see how it performs and check out its "reformulated" formula. First, the traction patch is definitely smaller that its 60mm counterparts, but being at 58mm, I don't really feel a big jump. It also looks good under my feet as the profile is definitely less chunky that the OJ's and Slimeballs. The 80a formula has a nice roll to it without being too squishy but stiff enough that it still rolls well on smooth ground. The size is perfect for bulldozing pebbles and carving through nasty pavement and sliding onto the occasional dirt paths and grass. Also a plus that the graphics don't seem to scratch easily as I only ever rock graphics on cruiser wheels. Get these!
