I havent tried them on a Scoob but they are not up to the S-02 by any margin. They are not marvellous in the wet and the dry grip isnt very exciting either. Rather stick with the tried and tested options.

Cool

Had a set on my scoob for 6 months now and never had a complaint with them, although to be fair I've never tried the bridgestones.
