8 Best Skateboard Wheel Companies

Not only is creativity shown through skateboard deck designs, but its also displayed through other parts as well, like the wheel.

 

Skateboard wheels are commonly made from polyurethane and come in many different shapes and sizes due to the different types of skating. Smaller wheels (48-54 mm) keep the board closer to the ground and allow street skaters to pull off tricks easier. Larger wheels (65-90 mm) roll faster which is perfect for vert skaters. Design is also important because it adds a sense of individuality to a skater.

 

The following is a list of 8 companies that have taken skateboard wheel designs to a whole new level.

Chocolate Skateboard Wheels

Alias TT Wakesurfer by O'Brien

As the only true twin tip wakesurfer the Alias is in a class of its own. While it's 4'6" long, it rides much shorter due to the fact that its designed to be ridden in the center. What is a center stance going to do for you? It's going to give you more of a skate feel, and be a lot more stable when riding fakie. This is the perfect board for the skateboarder that is looking to get wet, Wet, WET. (Yes. I did just do that). The Alias TT Wakesurfer by O'Brien is available now for $250.
