RIPTIDE FORMULAS EXPLAINED | |
---|---|
APS The APS formula is described as having a lively and responsive feel because of its high-rebound characteristics. APS is RipTide's most popular formula and great for derby jammers and dual-positional players, outdoor skaters, and anyone new to roller skating or new to changing cushions. RipTide recommends 75A-80A as a starting point for most skaters. | |
KRANK The Krank formula is RipTide's hardest cushion formula and provides a solid base with strong edge support to give skaters precise control over their skates. RipTide recommends Krank for aggressive skating styles and disciplines like derby blockers, park skaters, and speed skaters, with 84A being the recommended starting hardness for most skaters. |
