I purchased the Falcon Plus plates and was extremely wobbly once I tried using them. This was expected because as a heavier skater (220lbs) I knew the stock cushions (the Bionic Mediums) were too soft, even after cranking the kingpin nut down.I upgraded to the hard Bionics and it's smooth sailing! The cushions are fantastic and feel super responsive without giving up stability. I really like these cushions.If you're a heavier skater consider going with the hard cushions vs the medium ones.

Med cushions that come with the Falcons are fast & good for 27/5; but day to day, soft are better for agility & can be tightened up to med fir soeed

Changed my cushions that came on my beach bunnies from moxi to these. Holy cow! What a difference. I weigh about 115-120 pounds.going from a hard barrel cushion to these, I definitely prefer conical over barrel and soft over hard. I do mostly outside skating, so a hard cushion would just cause me to bounce all over and lose control. Even when i have them down tight I have the ability to do things I didn’t think I would with my others on. It really made my skates feel better than brand new. And I feel like it’s important to say that your wheels DO NOT matter that’s only cosmetic, yes the proper durometer matters of course. I personally like 84a-90a even for outside. Your bearings DO NOT matter (to an extent) and I’m talking using an ABEC5 compared to ABEC9. Lower is better and (safer). Since I don’t weigh very much, it doesn’t take me as much effort as it would someone who weighs more, to “gain and maintain momentum “ in the words of dirty debrah Harry. There are alot of scenarios for the different types. I’d reserve 7&9 to extreme quad skating 3&5 for artistic,rhythm and jam. Indoor vs outdoor. Skating outdoors you don’t want to get going too fast to where you can’t stop safely(unless experienced) so I probably wouldn’t want anything more than a 5 personally. Again I think of how much weight is coming down onto my wheels, and how much is like to continue rolling after I make contact again after “picking it up and putting down” with my feet. I know that I’m not going to jump down a set of stairs anytime soon, so I don’t need to maintain that momentum when I make contact again at the bottom, also important to mention it also allows for greater pressure to be applied before”locking or freezing up” “getting stuck or feeling choppy” again the idea of “gain and maintain momentum “ I’ll shut up now. They’re treating cushions id your light and feel like you can’t seem to move as freely as you like My skates came with power dyne marvel plates. I mainly came to edit and include a photo to help a particular reviewer. Hopefully they see and it’s helpful.

It's been hard to find out if these would fit various plates. I have 3 skate plates. Suregrip rock, powerdyne neo, and crazy venus.The producers do not have measurement or compatibility information out there which sets people up to buy a product they can't use. (Not cool).These will not fit the suregrip plate at all.For the crazy plates, the cylinder cushion fits but not the smaller cone one.For the powerdyne fuse, these cushions technically fit, but not really. I can put them on the skates but then the nut is barely on. It seems to pull the pivot out a bit from where it should be because the base cushion is a few mm taller than what came on them.My suggestion is they only fit pilot plates. A friend of mine has a bont tracer I will try them on but I expect the same issues as the powerdyne plate.I have a caliper and have included measurements.Please note that the cone cushion has a part that is suppose to go in the opening of the truck. Most trucks have a small opening here so these won't be compatible unless that hole (the one the kingpin goes through) is at least 16mm wide.As for medium hardness. When I squeezed them they felt on par with most medium cushions (bont, suregrip). I thought they might be more like the softer powerdyne or crazy cushions. Which have pretty soft "mediums". But they are not. They have great rebound and felt smooth on the powerdyne plates even though they don't fit. I would say they are high quality. They just don't fit other plates.

I like these cushions. I have the Jackson Vista roller skates and it fits perfectly, shipping was earlier than expected. These cushions make the skates more comfortable for me.

I have roller skates and I these are for skateboards, I think. I can adapt them, I believe, so they are going to be ok. Highly rated bushings. Fast delivery.

This really provides a new feature to my skates. Be careful though they are much different than the stock pads.
