Orangatang Durian 75 mm Freeride Longboard Skateboard Wheels (Set of 4)

These wheels are on a level of their own, seriously. They were an upgrade for my son’s board and make a huge difference in his confidence to in that he can roll over just about anything without having to worry about taking a fall. They make the ride much more comfortable as well, so smooth - like butter.I bought from Orangatang (seller) and they are fantastic to deal with. I initially ordered the wrong wheels, contacted them, and they cancelled my original order for the wrong wheels within an hour with no hassle or problems.Pleasure dealing with a company with great customer service and great products. I owe a few pairs of their own wheels, two pairs of their knuckle bushings and a pair of the nipple bushings. All are superb products and drastically improve the performance and feel of the boards they are on.

I thought my old wheels worked well. I cannot believe how wrong I was. These wheels are awesome. If my old wheels crawled, these dance in comparison. I can make almost any turn, go almost any direction, and do things on my board now I never thought was possible.

The description states that wheels may have cosmetic blemishes that do not affect performance, but this is not true. One of my wheels is out of round! You can see in the picture on the left edge of the wheel there is a patch around half the wheel that does not contact the ground as it should. I'm not super concerned as this board is just for cruising but I would not use these for downhill due to manufacturing defects that DO affect performance. I love the wheels otherwise, but cannot give a good review to a wheel with a flat spot.

These wheels are much faster than the 70mm wheels I had been using, which makes cruising and downhill more fun. They are also slightly driftier because of their relatively narrow contact patch and hard durometer, and also because the surface of the tread is not smooth but mildly textured, which I assume is meant to simulate a wheel that's been broken in already. I've never done much sliding, but I think I could with these wheels. The factory blemishes seem to be just small bubble pits on the rear face of the wheel (the side without lettering), which I can't imagine affect performance. My only complaint is that getting the bearings in was a very tight fit.

These are good wheels for my skating style... I kinda put em through the ringer because I tic-tac and carve for miles at a time (not on a "Carver"; on a DogTown BullDog). I cone the right front pretty bad 'cause I skate the way I do... so I regularly rotate em and replace them every couple years or so. They give a little on pavement so I can power slide some also.. they take to the street pretty well.

Im not a 'seasoned' skateboarder but when googling wheels for my longboard, these were at the top of the list. I swapped these for the wheels that came on the board and its a huge difference. Especially when rolling down the street with the kids. Will be purchasing again once these get warn out.

Minor bubbles but worth the price difference

These. Wheels. Are. Amazing. I'm not joking. You can roll over just about anything. They feel so smooth compared to the any other wheels I've had. These wheels are BEEFY and kinda heavy but it's worth every minute I have to carry my board to be able to cruise these bad boys. AND they are purple. boom.

Absolutely spot on, cheers, super fast

Comfortable, fast and grippy wheels that looks great as well. My second set with a softer duro. Wheel really last and with rounded edge is not prone to chips or chunks like sharp lips. Also makes it easy to push into a slide if needed. No regrets with orangatang urethane

Meine ersten Rollen von Orangatang und bin super zufrieden. Rollen liegen gut auf und es macht einfach nur Spaß zu boarden! Unebenheiten werden super ausgeglichen und man rollt mit einmal pushen gefühlt ewig. Nur zu empfehlen. Haben meinem Freund sogar noch 80mm Rollen von Orangatang gekauft.
