FoeJo Wheel Co. introduces the Skid Freeride.

The Skid Freeride, release date May 28th 2012, is the first wheel in the FoeJo Wheel Co. lineup . With this 72mm, 83a, round-lip freeride wheel, crap never looked so clean. Dubbed "Poothane" by its fans, this brown, unscented urethane has a buttery smooth feel that will give you some of the longest, cleanest slides of your life! You will shed 'thane. Here at FoeJo, we strongly encourage you to claim your territory and leave Skid marks everywhere you skate.   http://www.foejo.com/

The wheel design was decided upon after extensive testing.  Having skated for many years and never finding the perfect freeride wheel we decided to set out and find the characteristics we liked for one of our own. The result was the FoeJo Skids.  The "Poothane" gives you a smooth release and hook up, and remains clean and consistent through the slide.  You will never find yourself questioning how the wheel will behave.  The wheel's round lip prevents it from catching grooves during your slides that can make the ride choppy and sloppy. And for those that like even wear, the "almost center-set" core helps to keep your wheels looking and feeling good until the end.  This wheel is ideal for the freeride oriented skater.  Click through to check out more!
