| Featured Product: FreeRide CTX [carve] Skate
Currently, our most popular skate for several reasons. The new Hyper Dubbs wheel is 10 percent more narrow and 15 percent lighter than conventonal skate wheels. There are 3 wheel colors including clear, black and blue (lady dubbs). There are also 3 bearing choices from ABEC 5, 7 and 9's. The BSB ABEC 9 bearings really cruise, too.
The Dubbs is an 82A durometer wheel, compared to the DHX [race] at 85A (harder) and the FTX [fitness] at 78A (softer). So, it's not too hard or soft. FYI: Harder wheels are faster and last longer, but are less comfortable regarding vibration on rough surfaces. The softer the wheels the more comfortable, but wear out faster and are a bit slower. So, there is always a balance between comfort and performance.
The stealthy image is really cool too. The clear and black wheels with chrome-color inner hubs offer a unique mono-chromatic look coupled with the all-black frame and sliver, grey & black bindings.
