Shark Wheel Sidewinder Longboard Wheels 70mm, 78a

My best friend ordered these for her brother's 50th birthday. He had heard about wheels like these and wanted to try them out. He has been skateboarding since he was a kid and has tried many other types and styles of wheels. He was like a kid in a candy store when he opened his new wheels. He did not even wait to open his other gifts --- he went straight out and put them on his board. He absolutely loves these wheels and says he won't ever buy plain 'ole round wheels again.

I love the wheels and how they ride but the color isn't what is shown in the picture I got a much darker green but my big problem is that I think mine are defective. I noticed when I first opened them they had air bubbles in the rubber and now after a week of hard riding on them a bit of rubber has opened up where some of the bubbles are causing a few small holes. *EDIT* I got word back from the company and the holes are normal and I've ridden them for probaby a few days of total ride time. One of the little holes has a tiny pebble in it and that bothers me but other than that everything else is fine. The way I drift has caused the back to wear more but I can easily just swap them. Not the easiest to slide on being a person from florida with not many hills but I manage and they're not bad high lock in good design.

Add these with v2 avenue trucks, bones swiss ceramic bearings ,9 rubber riser pad, a bamboo deck, mob grip tape, and independent hardware .

When I opened the package the wheels where split in 2 and there was a dirty make up removed pad in it

Fantastic ... according to my 12 year old son. Run like a dream.

Despite how the wheels look they do roll smoothly over ANY surface. Large cracks in the road/sidewalk still tend to be a problem...

Too cool😎

They're great !
