Hi,

I was out with my mountainboard en the problem is often the speedwobble then i saw i guy with doomwheels and was going FAST so i decided that is was time for doomwheels i just bought these for a start and will this winter change them into real doomwheels. They are sold in the netherlands for 70 euro's but i bought then second hand for 10. what do you think of them.

They look similar to the old Rollerblade Coyotes which are fine for kiteskating at slower speed and on smooth terrain like grass fields. Watch out for rutts because the short wheel-base will cause you to stumble forward. These skates will at least give you a limitied feeling for off-road kiteskating and you should be able to use the boots when you are ready to convert them into Doomwheels.

Enjoy!
