Powell Peralta Snakes 82A SSF PRO Skateboard Wheels

Powell Peralta has introduced a new line of SNAKES SSF Pro 82A Skateboard Wheels, available in 66mm and 69mm diameters and in blue or yellow colors. This latest 82A formula promises a grippier ride compared to the previously offered 75A SSF wheels, delivering a more "in the pavement" feel while still maintaining a smooth, sugary slide.

The key specifications of these new wheels are as follows:

Wheel Diameter: 66mm or 69mm Wheel Width: 46mm Wheel Ride Patch Width: 38mm Durometer/Hardness: 82A Wheel Formula: SSF (Soft Slide Formula) PRO 82A

The 82A SSF PRO formula, found in the 59mm G-Slides as well as the 66mm and 69mm Snakes, has been developed through extensive research and development. This new formulation is designed to provide a grippier ride than the current 75A offering, made possible through the innovative urethane compounding process.

Compared to the 75A formula, the 82A SSF PRO wheels will have a more "in the pavement" feel, providing a heightened connection between the rider and the surface. On warmer days or under the weight of heavier skaters, the blue and yellow wheel colors are expected to leave vibrant "thane lines" as they grip the pavement.

Furthermore, the 82A hardness of this new formula will help reduce the common issue of chunking that can occur in 75A or 80A wheels. This makes the 82A "SSF PRO" wheels an excellent choice for dancers, freestylers, or those seeking increased engagement with the road surface.

In essence, the Powell Peralta team has successfully developed a new 82A SSF PRO formula that delivers a grippier, more connected ride, while maintaining the smooth, sugary slide characteristics that have made their wheels a favorite among skaters. Whether you're looking to upgrade your current setup or explore new wheel options, the 66mm and 69mm SNAKES SSF Pro 82A wheels are worth considering for their enhanced performance and durability.
