Just started skating on these super narrow wheels.  We skate on treated concrete and it is pretty slippery so I definitely like the grip of the 88A Stalker wheels.  They offer just enough grip to still get some power from your stride while the super narrow profile means they are still speedy wheels. I didn’t feel that the grip was holding me back speed wise at all.  Heartless is dedicated to making narrow profile wheels for derby skaters who are interested in and working towards ultimate agility in and through the pack.  They have succeeded with this wheel!  In addition to being a high performance wheel I also love the way they look.  Definitely the coolest designed wheels and I am also a sucker for black wheels – I wish all wheels came in black!  Whether you are a jammer or a blocker if you are looking for a grippy wheels and to increase your agility I highly recommend these wheels.

Check out the Heartless Stalker wheels along with a full selection of Heartless wheels here.

Atom Stinger Slim Wheels Review

Hi!… I’m Dust Bunny from Toronto Roller Derby, and I bought a set of Stinger 38mm wheels and I love them!!! As a jammer I was much more agile, and I was able to achieve much more powerful crossovers around the corners. I seriously kept saying that I felt like a super hero!
