Default New Hotness from Earthwing

Check it out, y'all.

All-new 66s:

-66mm 82a black urethane
-Same core as the 56s (wicked urethane depth)
-Thicker, more rigid lips than 66 zigs
-Killer grip, smooth ride
-Available now.






The Thruster

-36 x 9.75 (9" wide at the truck mounts; so run center set wheels on 169s or offsets on 149s)
-Dual-drilled 15 or 16" wheelbase
-7-ply Biaxial Canadian Maple
-9 or 10" nose
-Bitchin' concave
-Ollies like a beast
-Good for cruising, sliding, street, ramps, and stabbing dudes*





The Mystery Model

-Light
-Stiff
-Awesome
-You want one
-6 weeks out.
-Worth the wait.
-shhhhhhh

That Thruster does look wicked. It's stiff, correct? No flex?

That last photo is very intriguing...

I love the 76mm Superballs. Super sticky, super fast. So the 66's should be about the same.

What did you do to your Randals (semi-visible axle)? Or is that normal with the new ones?

Whichever wheels are underneath a rider who actually SKATES rather than just post on the internet will be fastest.
