I will need a second set of wheels for my skates as I'm currently murdering them on the FNS. THose wheels will only be used for racing.

Is there some interest to try and organise a group-club buy? Does anyone have contacts for cheaper prices than shop prices?

The wheels that have caught my interest are the supesonic 100mm Microbearings. I'm happy to consider other wheels.

Vinny had packets of 100s at Spalding. No races for a bit though. I don't get through 100s much but could do with a new set when I get round to training in my old ones later this summer.

Belotti Dave sells those supersonics, Hans bought some and will know how much they were. Personally I don't know if I rate them that high tho.

But hold off buying for a little while if you can... I'm trying to organise something on a club-level and will get back to you in a few weeks.

I bought some of these (plus other 84 and 100 ones) at Le Mans last year at the Hawaii Surf stall. Can't remember what I paid for them, but they probably were around €10-11 methinks.

There also were other traders present at the event who were selling 100mm wheels.

Hawaii Surf will give you their "club price" (ie RRP - 10%) if you go to their shop (just outside Paris) with your current FISS/FFRS/etc. licence. Something to keep in mind for anyone who would plan on getting a full set-up or a load of stuff maybe...
