Ricta Desarmo Vortex Naturals Skateboard Wheels

These wheels are engineered specifically for technical street and park skating. The slim profile and 99A durometer make them ideal for skaters who prioritize flip tricks, quick acceleration, and precise control over cruising.

The slim profile reduces the overall weight of the wheel and minimizes drag. This makes your setup feel more responsive and agile, which is particularly helpful for technical maneuvers and flip tricks where every ounce counts.

Ricta designed these with a focus on durability, specifically to resist flat spots during heavy impacts. While no wheel is completely immune to flat-spotting, this formula is built to handle the demands of aggressive street skating.

A 99A durometer is on the harder side, which is excellent for speed and slide control on smooth surfaces like skateparks or polished concrete. If you primarily skate very rough asphalt, you might find them a bit harsh, but they are a standard choice for technical street performance.

At 51mm, these are on the smaller side, which keeps your center of gravity lower and your board lighter. This size is a classic choice for technical skaters who want quicker acceleration and a more nimble feel under their feet.
