Durometer: 76a

Notes: Resurfaced, No Factory Skin, Lips Trimmed, Standard Rain Grooves
Flatspot rain grooved wheels are upcycled from lightly used scrubbed wheels that are less than ideal for gripping and sliding clean lines in the dry, but perfect for being grooved for the wet.
Each wheel is checked for solid cores, good urethane, and no flatspots and then trimmed and grooved. These cuts give wheels the added edges and channels necessary to flex, grip and push out water to help you hold lines and maintain controlled slides in ways you’d never be able with standard factory wheels.

With grooves in your wheels you’ll be able to grip in the rain! This technique is key for skateboarding on wet roads. The grooves allow for the water on the road to escape from bellow the wheels, allowing for more contact with the road. Additionally, the edges of wheels flex to help with grip. Grooving adds more edges resulting in increased grip when turning. Combining the reduction in water-to-wheel surface and increase in edge grip means more traction and control and less hydroplaning and icing out.
Flatspot rain grooved wheels are upcycled from lightly used scrubbed wheels that are less than ideal for gripping and sliding clean lines in the dry, but perfect for being grooved for the wet.
Each wheel is checked for solid cores, good urethane, and no flatspots and then trimmed and grooved. These cuts give wheels the added edges and channels necessary to flex, grip and push out water to help you hold lines and maintain controlled slides in ways you’d never be able with standard factory wheels.
Each set of Flatspot Upcycled Rain Grooved Wheels are unique and custom made, by hand, by a skateboarder with over a decade of wheel machining experience. Flatspot uses a now, mostly standard, groove pattern and edge trim that has been tested by our experienced team of pro and am riders across the globe, in countless riding environments and road surfaces from casual cruising to World Cup Downhill races. If you would like a custom set of wheels either with a specific brand of wheel or style of groove pattern, we can make individual sets on demand, by request.
