My interest is in the differences between the differently colored wheels and how they act differently towards game pieces. I know that green is softer than orange is softer than blue, but I don't know how that correlates to interacting with past game pieces (frisbees/basketballs/inner tubes especially). Any info that anyone can give me would be greatly appreciated!
In general, the softer wheels grip game pieces better but wear faster.
