Shark Wheel

Despite the unconventional look, the ride feels surprisingly smooth. The design is engineered to mimic a sine wave, which creates a consistent contact patch that rolls over cracks and debris more effectively than a standard round wheel.

These wheels excel on rougher terrain. The 78A durometer is relatively soft, which helps absorb road vibration, while the unique geometry is specifically designed to maintain momentum over cracks and gravel that might stop a traditional wheel.

The shape provides a distinct grip advantage. Because the design naturally channels water and debris away from the contact patch, you get more consistent traction in turns, though they are not designed for technical sliding tricks.

72mm is a standard size for longboards and cruisers, but you should check your deck clearance first. If you are riding a standard popsicle-shape skateboard, you may need riser pads to prevent wheel bite during sharp turns.

The high-quality polyurethane formula is comparable to premium longboard wheels. While the shape is different, the wear pattern is actually quite even because the design distributes pressure across the surface differently than a traditional wheel.
