Frequently Asked Questions
Yep, they're pretty awesome. Ricta makes some of the best skateboard wheels on the market. Clouds are a best seller because they can basically replace your hard wheels for soft wheels. This gives riders the ability to film silently or just get that smooth ride for cruising.
You can still do tricks with Ricta Clouds, but we recommend using hard wheels for tricks. Soft wheels, like Clouds, can hang up on landings and copings. This is not ideal, obviously.

We recommend checking what size wheels you are running now and then just buying the closest option, leaning towards on sizing down. For example, if you have 55mm, we recommend getting 54mm Ricta Clouds.
Why do we recommend this? Well you really don't want to get wheelbite with Ricta Clouds. They're going to grip and stop your deck faster than hard wheels. So size down to be safe.
