I need to order new wheels. What Durometer (hardness) rating do I need?
The higher the Durometer rating, the harder the wheel is going to be. If you plan on skating on an indoor surface all the time, you will desire a softer wheel (72-76A). If you are going to be skating exclusively outdoors, you will need a harder wheel (82-84A). If you will be splitting your skating time between both indoors and outdoors, you will want a Durometer rating that falls somewhere in the middle (78-82A). For aggressive skaters and roller hockey players, your Durometer ratings will be different.
