It's going to take more than a miracle wheel to improve my skating.

I’m 47 and absolutely love the Dragon wheels. My knees, feet and back have thanked me for switching. I tried OJ dual duros and they were an instant remove from my set up.

Thank you so much for your insight and this 1 year review of these wheels!

Great production quality, great video overall! Keep up the good work. Best Regards

Been riding 93a Dragons since June and about to be on my second set. I love how much control I have with a softer wheel that slides when I want it to.

34 and love these wheels, the best for older style guys who still slightly shred, try it if you haven’t already

Solid review. Thank you!

Love my dragons. I'm 40 and just got back into skating last year after 20 years, the dragons were the second set of wheels I tried when I came back and they really helped reduce knee and foot pain. That alone makes them pure gold for me. I got a set of Nanocubics at the end of last season and I really like the shape of them but haven't got to skate them too much, Nova Scotia weather is shit and I haven't been able to skate much at all for a couple months. Awesome video, loved the honkin goose reference.

Great video. Never owned a Hawk before but always admired the deck shape. Lucky enough to preorder a series 15 so can’t wait to try one out finally!

I've started rotating my dragons like the tires on my truck 😂 because I ❤ them so much

I've had the original 93a dragons, 97a X formula, and currently the AA 97a dragons. I found that over time the 93a dragons got really slick on smoother surfaces. I feel like the 97a dragon\x formula are the way to go for all around street\park skating. X formula comes in more shapes, but I'm liking the AA so far.

Good review! First time here. I’ve also found this duro great for street.. but def slow for park(learning transition) I’m loving the new Nanos though (97a) Same sound and def fun at a park. They come in all sizes too!! 🎉

Bones formula X 99A 👀 gamechangers🔥🔥🔥

Nice review I ride dragon wheels almost every day on my last km commute to work and on the weekends at skate parks they are great as a all season wheel for rough weathered spots

I love my Green Dragons. Long time ago in the 80's I had some Powell Rat Bones 94's. That was my favorite formula.

This is why I still ride dragons after almost a year, I can get to the park, go to the store, haven't died from a pebble yet, my bones thank me, I can Ollie, grind, carve, drop in do flip tricks etc. all on the same board and wheels. Muy first impression with dragon wheels was" they suck" now I can't skate anything else

I love the dragons, they are amazing for street, though I prefer f4 in parks. The only downside I can think of is that they wore down more quickly than my other wheels. 4 months and I'm down 1cm from 54 to 44mm Still rocking them, but at this size they're not quite so fast. Still smooth though. Next Up are the 97a AA wheels, I am hyped to try primo tricks.

Ok I'll add a little more to this review. I'm just about 20 years older than the this guy. For me using Dragons is the first time I've ridden a soft wheel in a skate park since late 70's/early 80's. I also have been using these for a year. This review is about spot on. I've been doing Bert slides for well over 40 years and these slide really good. Infact they slide better than the Spitfire 99A 60mm wheel I was riding previously. So less effort. Now when I do layback slides I found that this is one of two tricks I do that fools the wheel into gripping rather than sliding. So when I go into a lay back on a bank or incline you really have to push that back foot away from you. Eventually it will go into sliding making it an easy roll away. The other is alleyoop slides in vertical ramps or bowls I find it wants to grip there as well. So you will need to get used to transferring your weight differently to get them sliding. For me I found that these wheels are faster than the spitfires I was using. Carving in a bowl is deceitfully fast as well. I also found when you bonk them on the coping to get air or air out, that it is much smoother on the bonk. Lastly I would not ride slippery parks since I do land somewhat harshly and depend on grip to not slide out on my ass. These have allowed me to skate any park. The wheel is incredible. As stated mine have gotten louder but I have had no loss of grip as of yet. I've also ridden these on outdoor ramps with skatelite and they grip that really well. The only thing to beware is they do cone. So you will have to rotate or invert the wheels from time to time. I was surprised with this since I thought modern wheels had done away with that issue. Thanks for a great review!!!

If you are skating the streets on the way to the park these are perfect

I'm torn between these and the Andy Anderson ones which are 97A. I think I will go for the AA's as during winter I will probably be skating indoor parks more than crusty outdoor spots but maybe get the normal dragons for spring/summer

I'm also surprised how the dragons are so soft, but they avoid flatspots somehow. I do try to keep my slide angle away from 90, and I guessed maybe the ride being so soft was masking the flatspots, but after riding 54mm ones down to about 50mm and riding a new set for a few months now, I think they are just good at avoid flatspots lol I agree with them being perfect wheels, and I don't think I'll ever ride anything else outside of skating parks which I rarely get a chance to. Even then, I'd be on the X-formulas.

I skate the new Flux Capacitor wheels send me back to 1985 😂 started skateboarding again at 49 I mean wreaking, I think the thing to do would be to take a nice toke of some green ganja to relax my muscles for when I body slam into the concrete!!

Practicing surfskate for 1y, I tried DF and I have to acknowledge that they are a killing machine for Bert slides BUT feeling sometimes very uncomfortable in the bowl since suddenly deciding to slide in straight line for no any reason …. which leads to a disaster since, yes, the speed increased significantly compared to conventional surfskate wheels

I like my dragons but that wheel bite is bad. I'm 37 now and had to switch because i tweaked my back from the wheel bite too many times. But they do feel good on the streets. They do help with knee, ankle, and lower back pain while skating street.

I have both the rat bones version and the regular 93a dragons. I have to say the rat bones are a lot smoother and faster in my opinion. You should definitely try them out if you haven’t yet.

You have the 56mm diameter for this dragons?

I find these a tad too soft and bouncy, when I go off anything higher than a curb, I feel a crazy amount of spring/rebound that shoots up into my legs, causing my board to shoot out from my feet :/

These Dragons sound like the Ricta Coulds I have, 55mm 92 or 93 hardness & they are Awesome at the Skatepark or on the Streets. I recently got a set of Spitfire 58mm 99 dur & the ONLY place they're good is at a Skatepark, other than that they're Useless, Rough, Slow, Vibrate your Soul...I also have 2 sets of Super Juice 55mm 78dur and they are the Fastest wheels on the Street & at the SKATEPARK toooo. I also like the way they look, the SUPER JUICE, very 1970's Vibe....

I also use the same wheels and are very and till now no complains. Is like having all terrain wheels. A 4x4 skateboard hehehehehe

Everytime i see review of these i just hope to see someone have the same problems i did with these wheels but i never seem to find anyone i had two sets of these dragons and within 3 to 6 months of having them the core stretched out so much my bearings were falling out of the wheel and that second set was sent to me for free by skate one cause i emailed them about the first set i for that did the same thing after that ive just wrote these wheels off entirely they skate very smoothly qnd slide great as advertised but their just faulty and i think its because their softer wheels

Dragons chip in the street and wear down a bit faster than most regular wheels

Basically, Dragons for asphalt and harder wheels for concrete then.

99-101A wheel’s definitely have drawbacks.

i have the 58mm .the only thing bad about them is you will be wasting money trying to find anything better

Settle down nerd

I wish we could stop calling them “cruiser wheels”. I’ve been skating the 78a Ricta Clouds for years. I ride them on a regular street setup and do regular street ticks with them. It’s just a soft wheel.
