Bustin – 2015 Shrike – Deck
The Shrike is designed to be an all around speed/freeride/freestyle board. The “Not-Drop” Platform will cradle your feet gently while the Venusian Dimples put you into comfortable, yet assertive control. Adjustable wheelbases for adjustable speeds, double kicktails for wildly rotating and aerial maneuvers, and lock-in pockets for relaxed, effortless riding.
The Shrike is built out of 8-plies of the industry’s best; Canadian Hard Rock Maple, sustainably harvested out of the Great Lakes Regions. This “king-of-woods” is pressed into a progressive concave shape that is gentle on the soles of your feet, while providing steep rail concave for that extra locked in feel. Beautifully shaped dimples grip the ball and heel of your foot on each side to give snowboard-like control, without the bindings.

Bustin – 2015 Sportster Pro Thermo Carbon – Deck
The race-ready counterpart to our popular Sportster decks, this freeride specific version of the board is stiffer and lighter with our new ThermoCarbon design. For those of you who love the Sportster shape, but want something a little racier. Bustin added a small nose and tail to the Sportster in order to protect your expensive race trucks in a worst-case-scenario, a couple layers of Carbon Fiber to dial in the race stiffness, and wrapped it all up in a sleek, sexy, brand new graphic from artist Colby Snyder.

Seismic – Tekton Precision Profiled XT Steel – Bearing Spacers
Tekton Precision-Profiled XT Steel Spacers
Premium 0.400-inch steel bearing spacers.
Machined from premium bearing steel and given advanced heat treatment, Tekton Precision-Profiled XT (Extra-Tough) Steel Spacers have extra-wide ends that square up against classic (non-built-in) bearings with nearly 60% more surface contact – aligning the bearings far more stably than traditional thin-tube spacers formed of much softer iron or aluminum (which can actually compress and deform under the stresses of modern downhill and freeriding).
The resulting optimized alignment means:
– Improved speed & acceleration
– More consistent wheel contact & grip while cornering
– More predictable slide release & hookup
– Longer wheel & bearing life

Sector 9 – Butterballs – 65mm/80a
ABOUT THE WHEEL
The 65mm Butterball offers the same formula and shape in a more compact package compared to the 70mm… so you can fit it under your double kick! You might find a little better speed control and responsiveness with this smaller version of the Butterball.
ABOUT THE CORE
Core technology has come along way and is one of the final frontiers for the progression of the modern skateboard wheel. Many avenues of wheel shape and urethane compounds have been hammered out but, the inner world of the core has been largely unexplored. We have finally stepped up with our own core design, and the list of positives is just the beginning: from increased roll speed, to better controlled slides.
Welcome to the new COSMIC CORE!

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.

Orangatang – Cage – 73mm
Tall and charming, The Cage holds it together with an air of calm and collected charisma… but is always prepared to lose its shit and get wild. The Cage is here to deliver when the script calls for inordinate momentum, firm yet pliable grip, and high-speed slides. Step away from the bike… and get your downhill fix on four wheels.
Purchase price includes set of 4 wheels.
FAST & BUTTERY – The Cage features gently bevelled sidewalls, rounded edges, and a stone-ground contact patch for buttery-smooth slides right out of the box. At 73mm tall and 48mm wide it offers high roll speed and reliable traction for fast and technical downhill freeriding.
STRONG, SUPPORTIVE CORE – A custom 38x38mm core with a deep “valley”-shaped cross section keeps the lips firmly supported like a burly botox injection, promoting smooth, consistent slides and even wear.
PEACHY THANE FORMULA – The Cage is poured in our proprietary Peachy Thane for a balance of buttery drifts and high durability. Slightly grippier than Euphorethane yet slipperier than Happy Thane, Peachy Thane offers a balanced blend of buttery speed control, long slides, and a cush ride.

Orangatang – Durian – 75mm
Much like its botanical namesake, the Durian is a big, meaty, and succulent gob of urethane designed to carry you across town to the not-so-local fruit stand or to be smeared liberally over your favorite downhill freeride run.
The Durian is poured in our proprietary Happy Thane formula for high roll speed, plush feel, and smooth, predictable drifts.
Purchase price includes set of 4 wheels.
FAST & BUTTERY – Combining an offset bearing seat and relatively wide contact patch with stiff, rounded lips results in a product that feels like a blend between a perfectly broken-in race wheel and a driftier freeride wheel. The stone-ground contact patch ensures buttery-smooth slides right out of the box. The 75mm diameter and 52mm width give the Durian tons of speed and grip for higher speeds without compromising driftability.
STRONG, SUPPORTIVE CORE – A tall and moderately wide internal core provides just enough support for clean and chatter-free slides without compromising the wheel’s plush ride and progressive level of traction.
HAPPY THANE FORMULA – The Durian is poured in our proprietary Happy Thane formula for high roll speed, plush feel, balanced traction, and smooth, predictable slides.
