64.5mm tall x 44mm wide ENCORE Wheels
33mm stone-ground running surface • Centerset bearing seat • Double-radius profile
4 oz. each • Sold in sets of FOUR wheels

The first wheel carefully designed from the inside-out for the rigors of modern Longboard Freestyle and Dance!
(Outstanding for technical freeride, too!)
• Finely-tuned height and width with beefy, well-radiused edges.
• Unusually light for a wheel this size, with mass highly concentrated in the tire for enhanced momentum and angular balance.
• Tough and durable – optimized to resist the extreme impacts of big Longboard Freestyle jumps.
• Stone-ground running surface for near-instant break-in – consistent grip and easy slides from the get-go!
• Poured in the very fastest urethane the skateboard world has ever seen, bar none.

Molded around our trimmed EC core.
• 37mm tall x 37mm wide – the largest and most supportive hub ever seen in a Longboard Freestyle / Dance wheel.
• Thick, unbreakable bearing supports!
• Improved “halo” hub configuration for more robust mechanical lock inside urethane without compromising tire thickness.
• Formed from 85D fiber-reinforced thermoplastic – the toughest hub material in the industry.

Available in DEFCON ultra-high-rebound formula, in three finely-tuned durometer choices
Guinness WR speed – more tricks per push! • slow, consistent wear • predictable handling
• 75A Bubblegum: Plush roll with extra grip. Velvety-smooth even on rough surfaces.
• 77A Mango: Fast, smooth, and lively underfoot. An optimal balance of properties for most surface conditions.

75.5mm ALPHA Wheels

Seismic Skate — Sat, 07 Apr 2018 19:26:41 +0000

75.5mm tall x 62.5mm wide ALPHA Wheels
62mm running surface • Bearing seat offset 6.5% • Square outside edge, straight-cut inside edge
8.125 oz. each • Sold in sets of FOUR wheels

A highly-optimized balance of properties for modern racing
• Size and momentum to carry you past the competition in straightaways – yet agile enough for quick acceleration, fast edge-to-edge adjustments, and snappy technical pre-drifts. Welcome to a whole new realm of FAST!
• Finely-calibrated width and supremely supported edges for smooth, predictable handling through even the hardest corners.
• The very fastest urethane that the skateboard industry has ever seen, bar none.
• Named after the Greek letter “alpha” (α), used in science to represent rotational acceleration.

A giant step forward in race wheel engineering
• Stout S-shaped edge profile optimizes lip support, maximizes traction under extreme G’s, and ensures predictable slide initiation and hookup.
• Running surface features a 0.5mm concave that pre-loads edges, heightens rebound, and enhances in-slide feedback.
• Bearing seat offset 6.5% for progressive lip engagement and more consistent wear.

The Fusion core – integrating 15 years of advanced hub R&D
• 46mm tall x 44mm wide – the largest and most supportive hub ever seen in a wheel this size.
• Deep, wide “saddle” profile regulates lateral wheel flex, supercharges edge support, and ensures absolute mechanical lock with the urethane.
• 8 lateral support beams (hollowed-out for lightness and aesthetics) form wide ridges that create unprecedented circumferential lock and rebound.
• Robust bearing lugs.
• Formed from 85D fiber-reinforced thermoplastic – the toughest hub material in the industry.

Available in TWO proprietary formulas, with finely-tuned durometer choices.
BlackOps: comfortable and predictable on all pavements • exceptional balance of speed and grip • extreme traction fresh • buttery and smooth sliding broken-in
• 77A Blue: Sticky and predictable “in the pavement” slide. Perfect for rough and inconsistent pavement.
Defcon: Ultra-high-rebound, thoroughbred race ‘thane • Guinness WR speed • directional slide • long-lasting grip • slow, consistent wear

A major update on our classic small freeride shape. We split the difference between the two original Cry Baby sizes and settled on 62mm by 38mm. Then we expanded the urethane formula options and added stonegrinding for easy sliding from the get-go. These Cry Babys perform better than ever! Smooth, predictable slides with great hookup, grip when you need it, and awesome ‘thane lines. Baby bottle and teething ring included… but only on the graphic!

Available in THREE proprietary formulas, with finely-tuned durometer choices.
Defcon: Guinness WR speed – get up to speed faster! • easy, predictable in-slide feedback • extremely slow, consistent wear
• 80A Mint: super fast roll; exceptionally easy release; ultra-smooth sliding; minimal grip
Premium Clear: the best beautiful clear urethane in the world
• 82A Crystal Clear Blue: Smooth-rolling, fast, and grippy when fresh; sugary smooth sliding when broken-in
Elixir: smooth, predictable slides (even on concrete) • easy release and hookup • supreme control • bright ’thane lines
• 84A Red: Floaty, velvet-smooth slides with bright ’thane lines
• 88A Blue: Slick and chalky-smooth for effortless BIG slides, even at slower speeds

“The consistency is unbelievable – no chop at all, just sugary crisp sliding and slow, even wear,” said Seismic team rider Dre “Grizzly” Nubine. “The slide and hookup at high speeds is perfect.”

“Everything about these wheels is a blast,” added Lamin Cassama. “They’re just the size and shape I’ve been searching for, with an amazingly consistent, controllable slide.”
