Omen – Sugar – Deck

The Omen Sugar boils down some of the most basic aspects of what makes a freeride board good and blends them into a carefully balanced meal of radness. Start with a solid rocker, add some flares for clearance, flushmounts to not overpower the flavour of your trucks, and finish off with a kicktail. Gangster graphic as garnish adds a nice visual touch. Voila, a culinary masterpiece! Cutthroat kitchen would get dominated by Omen if they were to somehow come together.

    $39.99CAD

    Zealous downhill Ceramic precision Spaced longboard Bearings

    Ceramic Balls
    -Ceramic balls are lighter, stiffer, smoother and naturally corrosion resistant. This means we can use a lower viscosity lubricant which makes them fast right out of the tube.
    – Precision 8mm axle holes
    – .4045″ built in spacers
    – .5mm built in speedrings
    – Strengthened Nylon Ball Retainers
    – White rubber seals to keep dirt and debris on the outside of the bearing.
    – Lubed with Custom Nanoceramic Grease
    -The unique feature of our lubricant is how the nanoceramic compound fills in deformations or asperities in the bearing. These deformations cause friction and heat around them which hardens the nano-ceramic compound to that specific area. This micro coating is 5 times the hardness of the host alloy and has a molecular bond with the host metal, filling in all the asperities and eliminating friction over time.
    -The coefficient of friction is the lowest in the field of Tribology at 0.003% creating a near frictionless surface. Mainly because the nanoceramic compound eliminates all asperities.
    -Corrosion on the inside of the bearing is nearly eliminated.

    Sold in sets of 8 bearings.

Flatspot Team: Sho Ouellette is too young to be so talented. Its not fair and makes everyone else feel washed up! But if you can’t beat em, join em, right? There isn’t anyone who can blast a roman candle faster than him. Thats a scientific fact. This summer he did some glob trotting, and skated all around Japan and Colombia! He came home from the summer with his own Pro-Model board with Valhalla Skateboards!

Kyle Hansen

Kyle Hansen kills it more than most are willing to admit, he is going to redefine “washed up” with simple gnar-ness. If the steeze market crashed kyle hansen would be sitting pretty cause I swear he’s got a monopoly on that stuff. One time kyle powerslid UP a hill with pure willpower. He hails from Abotsford, and rocks it traditional coasty and yardwaste style: anywhere and always no matter if its pooring or covered in salt. We are proud to welcome him onto the Flatspot team!

Check out this awesome video in the rain, and this awesome video in the dry. Kyle shreds regardless of weather conditions.

May his axels be preserved by the skate gods.
