Pantheon – Black Sliders Wheels – 66mm 78a

Pantheon Longboards – Black Sliders Wheels – 66mm 78a

Diameter: 66mm
Width: 46mm
Contact Patch: 39.75mm
Urethane Depth: 15.38mm
Core placement: Center
Durometer: 74a Milky, 78a Black

Pantheon Sliders wheels are on the menu! The Sliders are a 66mm slide wheel that prioritize grip and feedback and a high value, long lasting slidey experience. These wheels are an expression of what we think is important in a smaller wheel, solving some of the issues that we find pretty typical of smaller wheels. Usually, wheels in the 65mm range have a bit of a rough ride due to shallow urethane depth as a result of using one of a couple stock freeride cores available at most wheel manufacturing facilities.

We prioritized feedback and longevity with this design by designing a custom core. The core features peaks and valleys that you might be accustomed to seeing in much larger downhill wheel cores, helping the urethane to stay on the hub and provide for consistent wear across the contact patch. But we did it with a core that is only slightly over 35mm in diameter, meaning you get a lot of urethane depth to play with and more bang for your buck. On the Sliders, that’s a whopping 15.4mm of urethane depth. This is actually a more standard urethane depth when compared to most 70mm slide wheels. That’s a lot of wheel. This pays you back in longevity, and it also makes the wheels feel super plush underfoot.

Lastly, the Sliders come with skin. Our manufacturing methods result in no mold release on these wheels, so you don’t have to wash them with soap to get them feeling right. The 74a are quite grippy out of the box and even suitable for a Surfskate deck, while the 78a are a touch easier to get sliding right away. And because they have a wider contact patch than many wheels of similar size, they offer quite a bit of mechanical grip. This results in a nice, in-the-pavement feeling slide with decent stopping power. These are not what some would call “cheater wheels.” They are built to do the job of slowing you down when you need to cut speed, and they will reliably hold you on the pavement when you need them to.

Pantheon – Milky Meatballs Wheels – 73mm 74a

Pantheon Longboards – Milky Meatballs Wheels – 73mm 74a

Diameter: 73mm
Width: 60mm
Contact Patch: 56.29mm
Urethane Depth: 18.9mm
Core placement: Center
Durometer: 74a Milky, 78a Black

Pantheon Meatballs wheels are on the menu! The Meatballs prioritize grip and feedback in an all-mountain wheel that’s meaty all the way to the core. Fresh out the wrapping, the Meatballs are really quite grippy. You can trust them to lean hard into a corner and hang on. After you break in the wheels, the consistent urethane depth across the contact patch of the wheel accounts for a great high speed freeride wheel that you can really lean on and count on for strong braking power. These aren’t a long-slide wheel. They are a scalpel on the mountain.

Lastly, the Meatballs come with skin. Our manufacturing methods result in no mold release on these wheels, so you don’t have to wash them with soap to get them feeling right. The 74a are intensely grippy out of the box, and the 78a are a little more forgiving. And because they have a wider contact patch than many wheels of similar size, they offer quite a bit of mechanical grip. Once broken in, this results in a nice, in-the-pavement feeling slide with a lot of stopping power. These are not what some would call “cheater wheels.” They are built to do the job of slowing you down when you need to cut speed, and they will reliably hold you on the pavement when you need them to.

Pantheon – Freestyle Ember Logos 2 – Deck

Pantheon Longboards – Freestyle Ember Logos 2 2024 – Deck

The Pantheon Ember is back! Many riders know and love this board already and can skip this paragraph. For those who have yet to get acquainted, the Ember is a top of the line commuter board designed around 149mm TKP trucks. Compared to a board like the Pranayama, the Ember sacrifices some of the low-ness and instead shaves some heft and adds a tail. The platform is slightly smaller than the Pranayama, but similar enough that if you can ride one, you can ride the other. The width gets cut down a meaningful half inch and puts the widest part of the deck at the center in the “belly” of the board. The ends of the standing platform are closer to 8 inches in width. This makes the board feel notably smaller and it will suit smaller riders, women and children, and people who just want a commuter deck that feels small–like a mini cruiser but way easier to push around.

The Ember is sexy and curved with care. It screams style, and we’ve got four styles of Embers to fit whatever your needs may be on the road: Classic Ember (Tail Kick, Small Nose), Urban Ember (Tail Kick, Chopped nose), Freestyle Ember (Nose and Tail Kicks), and the Eco Ember (Chopped Nose and Tail).

Please note: do not set this board up RKP-style longboard trucks. The Ember is built for street trucks only, and putting the wrong setup on this board will cause wheel bite. If you’re going to put this together yourself, be sure you pay attention to our available options here and set it up very similarly, and you’re assured to have a uniquely awesome riding experience.

Details
Length: 33in or smaller depending on the nose or tail kicks and chops.
Width: 8.5in – 8.0in
Wheelbase: 25.0in
3/4in crescent drop.
1/4in rocker
