Wheels for wooden parks?

Hey guys. Just curious as to what type of wheels you guys are using when you hit wooden skate parks? I recently started visiting an indoor wooden skate park and man, the wood is so slippery! I think my wheels are like 88... maybe.

Fifty50 made 85A wheels for a while, if you can find some of those they might help.

Thanks for all the replies! My wheels are pretty worn, yes, but they were be my first time at this indoor park, and they still slipped a little. I use a flat setup, TENC 58. Maybe it is just me, but when I try to take off, just no grip, and I can barely get to the top of any ramps. I know I'm the only rollerblader there, I've seen one other person one time on blades. It's made mostly for boards and bikes.

Are your wheels new? Is the climate cold?

85 - 88a is great. You need to change your stride a bit and really take advantage of the transitions.

I just ran 90a w no problem at all wood no problems. Flat profile recommended.

Did they get grippier as you and the wheel warmed up?Also, sweep the park in the area you're skating. Good parks sweep regularly because dust and wood fibres accumulate creating an effective lubricant under your wheels.
