Dragonskin is a ultra-premium formula concocted from the most expensive raw ingredients ever used in skateboard wheels to produce a soft wheel that outlasts, outrolls, and outperforms every other wheel formula ever made. At 82a the wheel rolls hard and fast, but has substantially more edge grip and traction than other formulas like SSF – but breaks out into smooth slides and glides over top of even the worst pavement.
The DS formula is tough as nails and will outlast all others on smooth pavements due to using a proprietary formula made in our own California urethane pouring facility.
As well, the DS formula roll faster than anything else out there due to extremely high rebound, and due to the immense edge grip that will allow you to grip corners better for optimal exit speed. When you want to slide, it effortlessly breaks into a slide that feels tacky and sticky such that you can put it back on edge when you want, but still glides over the pavement with zero chatter.
This formula excels in high temperatures, but feels sticky and comfortable even when cold.
