Vandem is next level! Having wanted to get a longboard for a few years, I finally decided it was time. After searching online, I came across Vandem. The reviews were so positive and I can now confirm why. I ordered the Lush Longboards Freebyrd Lo-Pro Woodgrain Drop-through Longboard
Elite Complete after seeing that other novices had been recommend this as a starter board. The online ordering process was faultless. From ease of website use, clear item information/descriptions and helpful reviews of others who have purchased in the past. I ordered at lunchtime and it came before lunchtime the next day. It arrived well packaged (with a hand signed message on the receipt, nice touch) and the board itself is beautiful. At 39 I’ve never skated before. I’m only just starting my journey, however, Vandem will be the only shop I use after my positive experience. 3 days into my skating and I love it. I get excited to wake up each morning to take the board out for practice before work and look forward to more practice when I get home. I hope to visit the store in person one day when I need to get more skate parts and meet with the team. However, the online process and customer service means those who can’t go in person can still a positive experience online. Thanks to everyone at Vandem, you’ve really set the standard for how a company should operate. Anyone thinking about trying longboarding for the first time… please do and consider Vandem for your needs!!!

Orangatang Fat Free 65mm Longboard Wheels

The 65mm Orangatang Fat Free is the smaller of the original Orangatang "freeride" wheels - the larger being the 70mm Orangatang Stimulus.

Featuring a slightly offset core, narrower contact patch, stoneground running surface and rounded lips, the Fat Free was intended to be a smaller freeride version of the 4President Grip Wheel. It's poured from the same "Happy Urethane," which is fast and sugary - a lot of fun.

The Fat Free is available in three duros:

  • 80A (Orange) - Maximum cushion for a slightly slower roll speed and less durability, we'd recommend the 80A if your local roads are a bit rougher. You won't find a plusher ride in any 65mm wheel than the 80A Fat Free!
  • 83A (Purple) - A slightly smoother slide and faster roll speed, this is good if you have nice smooth surfaces nearby, but for freeride has been superseded by the Keanu. 
  • 86A (Yellow) - A dedicated freeride duro, which to be honest is fairly limited in use. We can get them in for you - just get in touch if you want a set!

The Fat Free may not be Orangatang's premium freeride offering any more - but it is still a great smaller wheel, perfect if you are looking for a smooth ride on a smaller board that's prone to wheelbite.

65mm is a great size for a cruiser wheel - nice and light, fairly well supported and rolls over most things, and the premium Orangatang urethane represents a serious upgrade over the cheaper wheels that probably came on your cruiser board. The Fat Free may be an older shape - but it still have a place in the Orangatang wheels lineup and you should definitely check it out.

Orangatang Fat Free wheels

Smooth ride, easy slides and the 80a orange really adds a splash of fun and colour to drab and grey skate spots!

Knowledgeable and quick service

I contacted Vandem about purchasing some wheels and bearings, Matt gave me some honest advice about what I needed and where to get the most bang for my buck. No upselling, just well informed advice. My order was posted and received ****** and I'm super happy with the whole experience. I look forward to using Vandem again.

Perfect sized soft, squidgy wheels that grip & slide!

Great wheels, nice colour, along with some new bushings they've boosted my surfskating fun!

Excellent

Very please with the wheels - they feel smooth on my micro cruiser. Just a beginner but they give me much more confidence when going on awful London pavements. Also brilliant service: the handwritten sign is a small but nice touch. I will definitely buy from them again - and probably contact them for some advice on my next setup. E
