Orangatang Beefcake 73mm Longboard Wheels

The new generation of Orangatang slide wheels are here: The Beefcake!

The Beefcake follows the Stimulus and the Cage... but is way better!

Big core: You'll be hard pressed to find a slide wheel without one. The core is much stiffer than the urethane and provides it with support - especially the outer edges of the wheel.

This means the urethane has less chance to deform and warp out of shape as you slide. And a more consistently true and round wheel will slide smoother. And don't we all want more consistently buttery smooth slides?

Super round lips: Not just a slight bevel on these - its a super round lip! That means nothing to catch when breaking traction, and they'll do it as a whisper not a shout.

The big radius on the lips also means that as the wheel wears down through its sliding life, it won't begin to develop sharp trumpet-like lips but will offer a consistent slide throughout its whole life.

Stoneground finish: We see stoneground finishes on many slide wheels, however Orangatang have taken it one step further and have ground not only the flat riding surface but all the way round the lips too!

Centreset: You can flip 'em round to promote even wear... they should wear evenly anyway, but if you find yourself sliding in one direction more than another, you can wear one side down quicker than the other. When it happens, flip 'em over, get them even again!

Three duros: In classic Otang style, you've got 80a, 83a and 86a up for grabs.

The softer ones will be that bit better at soaking up rough asphalt, the harder ones will slide that bit smoother on good asphalt and need less speed to push out.

From Orangatang themselves: 

BEEFY PHYSIQUE FOR PERFORMANCE-ENHANCED FREERIDING.

The Orangatang Beefcake is here to add some bronzed brawn and brains to your freeride fantasies. The burly shape, stone-ground contact patch, and muscular roundovers provide consistent lip shape for smooth, catch-free slides and effortless slide initiation. Designed for high-speed freeride and technical sliding alike, these hulking specimens score best in show for throwing slides and linking rotations run after run after run.
