The new Globe shape is a revolutionary fingerboard wheel shape that is optimal for a variety of surfaces and tricks. The spherical shape combined with the soft, 61D urethane allows the wheels to conform to the style of the rider. The Globe Apex Wheels provide a completely new and exciting riding feel that can be adjusted by finger pressure and bushing hardness. Many fingerboarders love the squeak sound that urethane wheels make as you powerslide across a surface or do a sharp turn.
The Apex Globe Wheels contain premium bearings with an ABEC-9 rating. These bearings are our highest quality fingerboard wheel bearings. They are extremely smooth and completely silent. These are sturdy bearings that will allow extreme movement and control. However, due to them being greased and completely shielded, they do not have the free spin our "Ultra Spin" Edition bearings do. In actual use, they are extremely responsive and have a very free roll. Additionally, Apex wheels feature a full, custom bearing lock that prevents the bearing from coming out except while using a bearing press.
The 61D wheels are our softest wheels yet and are equivalent to 101A hardness. The feel of these wheels are very similar to real skateboard wheels. Measuring 8.3mm in diameter and 6.3mm wide, these wheels are great for doing tricks on all kinds of surfaces. These wheels are designed and made in the USA using a premium quality, custom Teak blended urethane. Each wheel is casted and cut in New York. Colors are hand mixed and may vary slightly between sets.
Without the pivot cups its not that smooth and they’re pretty stiff. Better than tech deck trucks if ur looking for an affordable alternative. Invest in some pivot cups if u ever buy gen1 trucks
