100+ PSI with Skyway Tuff II's. Any Problems?

Just thinking ahead mate! I just read in an article that freestylers run with High Pressure these days, thought they might know something I don't.
At least I know now that sticking 100psi into a tuff is a big no no. I'm glad I asked now!
In early December I stuck about 50psi in my other coasterless tuff II's and they looked a bit squidgy. They also didn't feel too healthy when I tried a couple of back hops. I'll check my pump and make sure it is putting the correct pressure in, it could be under-inflated but I doubt it. I'll use 55-60psi and see if that makes any difference.
Thanks for the advice.

a lot of people have said you couldn't have that much pressure in tuffs and the tyre wouldn't stay on at that pressure. but bitd i used to ride with Haro tyres at 80 psi with no problems. i then moved onto Peregrines and ACS and rode with 100psi. Never had any problems with that either. Maybe I just got lucky. I used to have them that high as they were better for lots of spinning tricks. Tricks like McCircles needed a lot of pressure.

The tyre will blow off the wheel while you're pumping it up if you go to that kind of pressure - always has done with me anyway!!!
