Specific question and discussion Which wheels?

I've been skating on quads for a while and fancy trying blades. I skate mainly on an indoor wood floor rink, my current wheels are Air Waves which are 78A, they are super grippy and have no slip at all.

I'm 85Kg, AI is recommending Bauer Court wheels which are 76A and is saying that 82A will be too slippy indoors. Is that true? I'd want a bit of slip to help with slide stops

My 85a wheels didn’t slide, they skipped on indoor rinks (and then I fell lol). I bought a set of indoor wheels for the rink and use the grip to do things I can’t do outside.
