How to choose your surfskate wheels
Wheel Hardness:
Softer wheels, ranging from 75a to 86a, are recommended for surfskate.
These wheels offer smooth rolling and perform well on various surfaces.
Softer wheels provide more comfort on uneven terrain and better grip.
Harder wheels make sliding easier but offer less comfort on rough surfaces.
Wheel Shape:
Squarelips: Better suited for grip and control during carves, sharp turns, and downhill riding.
Roundlips: Ideal for slides, freeride, and surfskate with smooth transitions and flow.
Wheel Diameter:
60mm to 70mm: Small, lightweight wheels that accelerate quickly but sacrifice some grip and comfort compared to larger wheels.
65mm to 70mm: A versatile size that balances acceleration, comfort, and grip.
Over 70mm: Large wheels provide a good balance of acceleration, comfort, and grip but may require risers.
Important Note: For wheels over 65mm, it is recommended to use risers between the trucks and the board to avoid wheel bite, which could cause sudden braking. If you have any doubts, feel free to contact our customer service for assistance.
