THESE WHEELS from SKATEONE/POWELL coming to PIONEERS in NH

George Powell the urethane guru and the guys over at Skateone are at it again!! This time they created a new longboard wheel and if there anything like any of the other wheels/urethane that have come out of skateone over the past 30+years they should be insane.

These Wheels is a new freeride/slide wheel created by the guys over at  Skate One Corp which consists of other great brands as BONES Wheels, Powell Peralta, Bones Bearings, and mini logo.  They started testing wheels on their local hills well over a year ago and in the past half year or so have sent them out to multiple cities worldwide. After some great feedback, they tweaked the formula's a bit and they are ready to release their first Freeride wheel that is meant for Freeriding and Sliding. The first round of wheels will be available in 69.5mm X 80A, is ground is 51mm wide with a 42mm contact patch. The second size is 74.5mm x 80a is ground and is 54mm wide with a 45mm contact patch. What makes These Wheels so great is that they built the wheel from the core out so that the Ultra High Rebound core enhances the performance of the outer urethane. The end result is good grip, smooth slides and a VERY fast and long lasting wheel.
Look for These Wheels at PIONEERS end of may/beginning of June.. Everyone is going to need These Wheels. Call the shop or email to reserve a set.
