    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?

    do u think they would be a better rear wheel then my 70mm 80 zig or do u think a 66mm rear and 86 or 83a zig infront would be more grippy,more fast, and just in generally bettr then a zig

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

    It does something strangely awesome to the ollie mechanism and makes it work absurdly well.

    I rolled up to the EWS warehouse right when UPS did; so this is the first set to hit the streets. I've put in maybe 45 minutes of riding on them and don't ride slalom; so I don't want to make any judgments here.

    It's flipped.
    The axle is exposed where it's held in the right place when it's cast into the hanger.
