They ride like a cloud, roll forever and roll fast! I can roll over just about everything. Tons of grip and smooth as butter!
The downsides:
They are heavy. Takes some strength to get them rolling but you are paid back by momentum because they roll for a while.
They are heavy and soft, and I've had some rips (the beginning of a chunk) after only a couple of months. So, I might try some of the harder duro next time.
But if you know that and don't care (like I did when I ordered them) you'll be freakin' happy with how juicy these suckers are.
I think all owners can agree that the boosted mini X is a fantastic piece of engineering, and some of the most fun you can have on 4 wheels. There are 3 very slight detractions from the stock board, but these wheels fix all of them!
1. Ride quality: the boosted mini doesn't have a flexible deck between the motor and battery, making it quite rigid. This coupled with the extremely hard stock wheels mean that you are made very aware of any road imperfections, dirt, pebbles, et.c, and small imperfections can be quite dangerous. These wheels totally smooth out small pebbles and cracks in the road and allow you to stomp with much more confidence.
2. Top Speed: You get the sense on the boosted that the top speed is limited not by the strength of the motor, but by a speed regulator. I may be wrong here, but it pulls like CRAZY to top speed then levels out quite quickly. These wheels give you an extra 2mph at the top end, which may not seem like a lot, but it allows you to basically go the speed limit in the city, which is huge!
Torque: The boosted mini x torque is unbelievable, but it can be so torquey that if you are a little bit careless on the remote, it gladly bucks you off the back. These slightly larger wheels flatten out the torque curve just a tiny bit, making the board more rideable and less jerky.
Here's what I'm getting at: These wheels may seem almost exactly the same as the stock wheels on paper (only 5mm larger) but they make a WORLD of difference. A must buy for a mini X owner.
What I don't really like about these particular Caguama wheels is that after a while using them, they turn a pea soup green type of color and then after that they start turning greyish. It's only a minor complaint, but they start looking kinda ugly after a while although when new, they look totally awesome especially on the Stealth. This might be helped some if you clean the wheels regularly though to keep them more clean overall.
The grey stock Boosted wheels still look cool when they get dirty but these Caguama wheels do offer better handling and feel.
You may however notice more of an difference if you're going from 80mm wheels such as if you have a Boosted Mini model or a 2nd Gen. model since these wheels are 85mm. Note, they do fit on the 2nd Gen. Boosted Board as well as any of the Mini's as well.
Recommended wheels!

I fitted them and realised my deck wasn’t compatible with such wide wheels. I just shaved a bit off each side of the deck with my jigsaw. Away we go! It’s a totally different ride now
Die Wahl fiel dann auf die Caguama-Rollen in Härte 80a. Trotz des stolzen Preises bin ich super zufrieden mit dem Kauf.
Ich hatte einfach das Gefühl, bei meiner Größe von 1,87m und Gewicht von 100kg, von größeren Rollen zu profitieren. Mit den "normalen" Rollen bin ich gefühlt an jedem zweiten Hindernis hängengeblieben.
Mit den Caguama-Rollen hingegen fahre ich über Risse im Asphalt, raues Pflaster, sowie kleinere Zweige und mittelgroße Kieselsteine einfach hinweg und allgemein fühlt sich das Board nun sehr viel stabiler an.
Ich benutze mein Board viel im Alltag, z.B. um damit durch die Stadt zur Arbeit zu fahren. Die Wegverhältnisse sind dabei alles andere als perfekt, oft muss ich z.B. auf Gehwegen mit dem üblichen Rechteckpflaster fahren oder in der Altstadt sogar auf altem, ungleichmäßigem Pflaster. Mit kleinen Rollen eine Qual und nicht ungefährlich, mit den neuen Rollen deutlich besser machbar.
Auf glattem Asphalt machen sie dann richtig Laune. Ein paar Mal pushen und man rollt ewig weit. Es sind auch hohe bis sehr hohe Geschwindigkeiten problemlos möglich.
Die Rollen sind auch erstaunlich leicht für die Größe und sehen absolut genial aus. Es haben sich schon einige Leute nach mir und meinem Longboard umgedreht und im Stillen oder auch direkt heraus ihre Bewunderung ausgedrückt.
Also zusammengefasst, wer etwas größere Rollen sucht, ist mit den Caguamas optimal bedient. Auf jeden Fall vorher überlegen, ob die Rollen auf das Board passen. Bei Boards mit cut-out sollte das kein Problem sein; bei anderen Boards kann es aber sonst zu wheel-bite kommen.
Ganz zu Beginn sind die Rollen wie alle Longboard-Rollen etwas glatt; das legt sich aber nach den ersten Touren schnell, wenn sie etwas angeraut sind.

Great wheels for this old longboard roller.
They can take on most terrain with ease. Orangutans provide a fast, comfortable roll.
Have fun when you get them, cuz they’ll get you cruisers there faster, comfortably!
