Not really. I've never heard of anyone using them for slalom. People used Road Riders or OJ's, then later on used Park Riders and Kryptos.
The Hollands were 55mm high and 46mm wide, sideset, and looked a lot like first-generation OJ's. |

They're just a wheel. Back then, there weren't a whole lot of specialized wheels.
I can honestly say I never saw a set in use. We used the Rocks for skating pools and pipes, because they were hard and fast (for the time). And Mitch's/Tunnel was only maybe 20 miles away, so they were definitely a locally available wheel, like RR's, OJ's, etc. I just never saw them outside of a display case, and still haven't. |
