    to conclude, silver fox = jade air with thinner surface and a little bit more control? look forward to see ur magic ice video i heard its upgraded tiger ice

    Im using the pink ones and im extremely confused as to why they are still lasting even after a month when my jade dots lasted 10 days. They aren't scratchy at all yet and I simply just dont understand why. Outside of donuts, I've never had any PTFE dots last me this long before.

      @@kami3449 yeah I've had the same experience, but someone else said they've lasted like 3 months on their SP004. I guess they're using fingertip grip or something as with my claw grip any hard-pad absolutely destroys some skates.

I also use fingertip grip which actually kind of makes sense as to why it would last longer than other grips since we arnt putting as much pressure on our mice.

    I'm using the ac pro soft and the obsidian seems slow over time, which would be better to have the same or similar experience as the corepads pro, the silver one or the black one?

    • @mel0nFPS
      @mel0nFPS  Місяць тому +1

      I'd actually recommend against using dots on soft pads as they'll have the same issues the SF's do on soft pads. Better to get the X-RayPad Obsidian donuts or GHOSTGLIDES Mini Donuts for soft-pad usage.

    2 weeks of use with my Skaypad 4.0 these are starting to feel slow, they feel very sticky with high static friction but once you get moving fast left and right regardless of stopping the dynamic friction is excellent just slow motions and stop to start slow motions feeling sticky.
    Not sure if I will keep them on much longer, skates should last months but these are already very thin and the bottom skates are reaching the edge already, ZA13-DW 6 dots.

    • @kami3449

      PTFE skates are too soft and thin to last months, if you want longevity then you need to use harder materials, but you will lose speed doing that.

    • @mel0nFPS
      @mel0nFPS  2 місяці тому

      Yeah 100% PTFE skates like the SilverFox won't last long on hard-pads, that's why I said in my review I was confused as to why they are included with pads like the HANA and BEAST due to their short-lifespan. If you want a longer life-span try the Obsidian Air Dots or Obsidian Air Pro dots.

      Not 100% sure actually, I've been meaning to try them myself but on paper they look the same. I assume the skate shaping or material has been altered slightly but I'm not sure. I should be getting samples of them soon though so keep an eye out for a review on them!

      @@AminuddinAiman-o7x If you're running a soft-pad dots won't be usable so you're best to stick with Donuts. Only issues is donut due to their larger surface area have more friction than dots, so while they'll be compatible the initial friction will be higher.
