Skateboard Cruiser Wheels & Penny Board Wheels
Enjoy a Smoother Ride with Skateboard Cruiser Wheels
Skateboard cruiser wheels have been crafted to let you glide effortlessly around town. In contrast to skateboard wheels, cruiser and penny board wheels feature a larger and softer composition, ensuring a comfortable ride even over uneven surfaces. These softer and more sizeable wheels enhance your speed and provide excellent grip.
For newcomers, opting for cruiser skateboard wheels can serve as an excellent introduction to board sports. They tend to be easier to handle compared to skateboard wheels, and mastering cruising can be a useful step towards conquering the skatepark.
Both cruiser and penny board wheels are constructed from polyurethane. You might observe that certain penny and cruiser wheels carry the SHR label, indicating Super High Rebound, which offers a more springy experience.
Which Size Cruiser Wheels Should I Choose?
The necessary wheel diameter greatly depends on your deck’s size. A longer deck necessitates bigger wheels. Although smaller wheels can be paired with a longer deck, they don't provide the optimal riding experience.
Choosing the wheel shape is another important consideration. With cruiser and penny wheels, you can select between sharp-lip or round-lip designs. Sharp-lip wheels promise superior grip, whereas round lips excel in carving.
Lastly, the wheel choice correlates with the rider’s weight and personal preference. Similar to wheels used for skateboarding and longboarding, these are measured using the durometer scale, with a harder wheel represented by a higher number.
