Sucrose – Bogart – 61mm 78a

Levi Green and I went out and skated the Sucrose Initiative bogarts. Which was a fantastic idea, because they are super fun. We had reviewed the Free Thoughts previously, which left no lines at all. These little shredballs on the other hand were SUPER dumpy. Speaking of which, I interupted the session half way through to destroy a porta-potty at a nearby construction site (sorry construction dudes, it was urgent). The Bogarts are made with the Fusion Formula (which is in between their freeride and race formula) and the  Momentum Core. These work nicely as a go quick freeride wheel but would also be more than suitable for a double kick alleyway destroyer.

ABOUT THE URETHANE
If the average rider really knew what our wheels went through to make it into our line-up, he might be confortable putting them on his car. On a serious note: these wheels are nitpicked through and through before even become prototypes. Then we dissect them, test them, rework them and test them again. This process often seems tedious, but it has proven successful time and time again. Whether it is our Race Formula, our Shredthane or our Nineballs, these wheels all stand up to the rigors of the road and perform for you when you need them most.
