Soft + Fast + Rebound
Hard wheels are great because they are fast and they slide great. Soft wheels are great because they cruise well on rough ground. You had to choose one or the other... Until now.
Powell's new Dragon Formula 93a Wheels slide well, ride smooth, ride fast, and lock in. They have been declared the best wheels by many top skaters already.
Be warned, once you try these, they may ruin all other wheels forever.
Ultra Premium Urethane for Park and Street Skateboarding
The amazing new Dragon Formula™ (DF) Urethane used to create these wheels is another industry leading innovation from Powell Peralta. DF-93A Dragon wheels will not only roll over rough terrain, but also grip and slide like 99A and 101A wheels do, so that you can do all your normal tricks and more on the greater range of skate terrains made skateable by its softer 93A hardness.
Speed
Dragons are very fast because DF-93A is super high rebound, an industry leading 18-20% higher than hard wheels. This higher rebound means you won’t lose speed in bowls or parks the way you would with an ordinary 93A wheel, and you will roll much smoother and faster on rough streets and sidewalks…even in places you used to have to walk your board.
Grip & Slide
Dragons slide on both rough and smooth terrains, and also grip when you need it. This is because Dragon Formula is not just an ordinary mid-90’s wheel formula. It has been developed over a ten year period to optimize and fine tune it to perfection. No other wheel can do what these Dragons can.
Durability
Dragon Formula is not only smooth, fast and slidable, it is also durable. The slidability comes from its unique blend of high performance materials by making the urethane weak so it will slide as the urethane wears away, not creating flats spots. Dragons are very long lasting so they are not only better skating, they are a great value too.
What Size Should I Buy?
Powell is offering 4 different sizes, so it can be tricky to know which one to try first. If you are doing more of that old school type of skateboarding, we recommend going with the largest 56mm Dragon Wheels. If you are doing lots of flat and freestyle, we recommend going with the 52mm. For park skaters, we recommend going with the 54mm.
There are two widths for 54mm, so get 32mm for the most typical skateboard wheel and the 34mm if you want a bit of extra grip.
Don’t overthink it too much though, all four sizes are awesome and you’ll enjoy all of them!
