Product details
Dead Wheels was started by Adam Johnson and Alex Broskow nearly a decade ago. Being skater owned and operated since the very beginning it clearly stands out from the vast numbered competition. Although it is difficult to reinvent the idea of a wheel for skating, Dead Wheels has been known for addressing the community needs and providing its customers with the wanted features.
Unique profiles, dedicated spacers or optimal diameter are the most distinctive Dead Wheels characteristics. With the start of 2023 the offer has been expanded again with long awaited 56 mm sized model, designed for flat skating. Well-known semi round profile of proven 58 mm model was shaved down to create a lower-riding wheel that is well out of the way while grinding. This will noticeably improve stability during landings, and also make it easier to balance longer when performing manuals on the front or rear wheel.
Smaller diameter of 56 mm gives the low centre of gravity liked by aggressive skaters and simply translates into more fun grinding experience. Yet the key feature of Dead Wheels collections is their various hardness option. The 56 mm models comes as universal 92a, as well as in slightly harder 95a option. The wheel with a hardness of 92a provides an excellent balance between grip while skating and reduced friction when grinding, while the 95a version will make it easier to perform any slide tricks, but at the cost of a significant loss of grip.
Thanks to the availability of the same wheel model in different hardnesses we can create a proper flat wheel setup of 92-95-95-92 with ease. New 56 mm models are offered in black and white colour schemes.
Dead Wheels are products crated by and for street skaters. Durable, fast, in line with the current hardware trends and meticulously tested by the Dead pro team: Alex Broskow, David Sizemore, Soichiro Kanashima and Gavin Drumm.
About manufacturer
Inline skating wheels are by far the most frequently replaced component of our skate gear. The current market is obviously flooded with different manufacturers engaged in the production of specialized wheels for various purposes, but as far as the aggressive inline skating scene is considered, one of the most respected brands is Dead Wheels.
The project is the result of a collaboration between well-known film maker Adam Johnson and a blade goat Alex Broskow. Adam made his mark on the scene with the iconic KFC video series, which undeniably helped spur Alex Broskow's fruitful career. Over the years, both have been heavily involved in a number of other projects (Street Artist, Vibralux), but in retrospect it is Dead Wheels that can be considered as their greatest success.
The reason for the brand's immense popularity lies in its unique business model and products that possess key features, seamlessly fitting in with current hardware and trick trends. Dead Wheels supports a permanent pro team featuring top skaters like David Sizemore, Marius Gaile, Soichiro Kanashima, Gavin Drumm, Dom Bruce and John Bolino, but it is the brand's collaborations that truly set it apart. These skilfully curated projects, such as limited edition Too Easy, Bacemint and 5th Floor wheels, as well as the highly popular reissue of Randy Spizer's vibrant pro models from the late 90s, have been warmly embraced by the inline skating community.
Without a doubt, Dead Wheels are top-of-the-line products. They have been put to the test by the world's most talented aggressive skaters and remain one of the few brands still manufacturing their products in the USA. The urethane compound is tried and true, the cores are solid, and what really sets them apart is the distinctive shape that's available in the most sought-after sizes: 56 mm, 58 mm, and the increasingly popular 80 mm diameter. The brand is always refining the offer, ensuring they are tailored to the current needs of their customers while their superb marketing is demonstrated through sick promotional videos, expertly shot by Adam Johnson.
