Landyachtz Chubby Hawgs Wheels 60mm 78a, Blue Features
-
GREAT FOR CRUISING - Coming in at 78a durometer, these wheels are nice and soft. When you hit bumps and cracks in the pavement, these wheels absorb some of the energy from the bump to give you a nice cushy ride.
-
SLIDEABLE - Although these wheels are soft, they are nice and slidey. When freeriding and sliding at higher speeds, these wheels won't kill too much speed and should leave nice, thick urethane lines.
-
SKATEPARK CAPABLE - These wheels come in at 60mm & 63mm which is optimal for a soft wheel at the skatepark. If you're tired of wrecking your knees on hard landings, these wheels will absorb from of the impact.

About Landyachtz Chubby Hawgs Wheels 60mm 78a, Blue
Wheels are arguably the most important part of a skateboard, responsible for roll speed, comfort and traction. While it is easy to copy the shape and color of a wheel and call it "high-quality", it requires a lot of experience, knowledge, and testing to produce a wheel that rolls fast, stays round and provides a predictable, safe ride. We've spent years testing urethane, developing cores, trying different lip profiles. The result is the absolute best custom formulas to balance the needs of riders in every skate situation. After feeling the joy of riding good wheels, you will never go back from Hawgs. Fatty Hawgs are possibly the most versatile cruiser wheel in our lineup. Measuring 63mm tall by 50mm wide, they do everything you could want a cruiser wheel to do. They grip when you want to carve deep and slip when you need to kick them out and shed speed. The high-quality 78a urethane formula means that they also roll faster and further with every push. Stone-ground vs Glossy - Hawgs Wheels recently added 2 Fatties to the lineup that have a gloss/slick finish, as opposed to the the scrubbed finish they typically use. Gloss wheels come with a sticky/tacky rolling surface - on a Stone-ground wheel this layer is removed after the wheels are poured. The gloss versions will be grippier out of the box, making them better for hard carves, but once you wear through the gloss layer they perform the same as scrubbed. The reason most wheels like this come scrubbed is so that you don't have to break-in your wheels - sliding gloss wheels, to break them in, can be very challenging and sometimes results in flat-spots.
