Introducing the Orangatang Dad Bod: the wheel equivalent of a comforting dad hug for your skateboard. In a cushy 77a durometer, this wheel is like slipping into a pair of well-worn slippers but for the streets.

Perfect for those who love to push their limits (and their boards) over long distances, engage in the art of pumping like they’re trying to get water from a well, or electrify their skate experience without shaking their fillings loose. The Orangatang Dad Bod is your go-to wheel for getting around, with enough comfort to make your feet feel like they’re being cradled by ergonomic pillows.

And let’s talk about size. These wheels are big, but not your average “I’ve had too much pie” big. They’re thoughtfully big, with a special groove on the inner lip lovingly dubbed the Traction Trench. Because even in the wheel world, it’s important to have that one feature that keeps you grounded when things start to get a bit wild. It’s like having a built-in safety rail for when your wheels decide they want to start living their own life at high speeds. So, if you’re ready to ride with the stability and comfort of a father figure, the Orangatang Dad Bod is here to cradle you to your next adventure.

The new Orangatang Dad Bod wheels have arrived to deliver exceptional roll speed with reliable traction and vibration dampening to all the big-wheel fanatics out there!

The Dad Bod towers over the rest of the Orangatang Wheels line up with it’s impressive stature of 105mm of full-bodied urethane goodness.

Designed for long distance pushing, pumping, and electric-skateboarding, the Orangatang Dad Bod has all the right stuff to take you to all the right places!

The Dad Bod’s firm yet cush outer lip provides comfort and speed. Big wheels tend to be hard to control, so Orangatang developed a new Traction Trench technology which helps the inner lip to comply with the rigorous demands of the road, bending and molding to suit your needs for grip around turns or between your carves.

The bearing seat is offset so the wheel can be flipped for narrower boards. The wide, smooth contact surface increases grip, and the rounded edges prevent catching on cracks.

Four years of development went into crafting this behemoth. Orangatang combined their tried-and-true Happy Thane formula with their newly designed TrypoCore to create a super-wheel of epic proportions that keeps you rolling but keeps your setup lightweight (relatively speaking).

Orangatang also made sure the TrypoCore is compatible with any electric-skateboard pulley that works with the Orangatang Kegels or Caguamas for easy adoption.

TRYPOCORE DESIGN:

In addition, the Dad Bod wheel features a brand-new Orangatang TrypoCore design. It consists of a wide core design with a deep valley-shaped cross section for efficient urethane damping and crisp handling. With a stiff glass-filled urethane construction, the TrypoCore increases grip and durability, while significantly reducing the overall weight of the wheel.

The new TrypoCore is compatible with all e-skate pulleys design for the Kegel and Caguama styled cores, while offering a second set of mounting holes for larger-diameter pulley systems. As a result, E-board manufacturers can design new pulleys around one or both sets of mounting holes on this core.
