Blockhead Hard Times in Frostbite Blue! Fast as F#%K, Ultra-Premium “Wild Thanes” Urethane! Flatspot Proof!
These are the same sidecut shape the company made in 1990…not because it’s nostalgic but because it’s still a really damn good shape! They might say Hard Times but no corners were cut with these! This is the best urethane out there!
“Since we relaunched the Hard Times wheel line in 2016 we’ve had many requests from skaters who don’t have the luxury of always riding perfect smooth concrete surfaces and want something with a more forgiving ride. We’ve answered with a 95a 57mm wheel that fills the void between a harder 101a and a softer 78a cruiser wheel for an amazing all around wheel to save your feet from those weathered ditches, mean streets and rough parking lots but will still keep you rolling with speed at the skatepark.” – Blockhead

Sit down with Ron Cameron and Dave Bergthold to get the low down on the 30 year “Whateversary” Nothing is Cool Plank. A truly unique creation starting with the custom “plank” shape, then custom spray painted backgrounds and a new NIC graphic designed just for the 30 year anniversary all by the legend Ron Cameron himself. To top it all off it features the Tragicomic customized as a full board graphic on the top, multi-color and all screen printed like it’s 1988….this has never been done before! Ron even jumped back in and pulled the squeegee on a few of them.
Blockhead Skateboards, which took its roots in a Northern California garage in 1985 under the leadership of Dave Bergthold, had a remarkable journey that spanned approximately a decade. During this period, CALSTREETS played a crucial role in distributing Blockhead skates throughout Canada in the '80s. This collaboration led to the forging of enduring friendships, unforgettable moments, the launch of successful careers, the creation of iconic skate ramps, and a wealth of unforgettable skateboarding experiences.
The impact of Blockhead on the skateboarding world was profound and multifaceted. Be it the original and striking artwork by Ron Cameron, the intense and heated sessions on 'The Blockhead Ramp,' or the numerous talented individuals who emerged from this era to leave their mark on the skateboard industry as professionals and industry shapers, Blockhead's legacy remains deeply ingrained in the fabric of skateboarding history.
