The Powell Peralta Cross Bones 64mm 97a Skateboard Wheels bring back one of Powell Peralta’s most recognizable classic wheel designs with the original shape, graphics and performance riders expect from an authentic reissue. Built as a versatile all-around wheel, the Cross Bones are a strong choice for completing an old-school setup, restoring a classic complete or adding vintage Powell style to a modern board.
Made with Powell Peralta’s original 97A urethane formula, these wheels deliver a sturdy, durable ride designed to handle a wide variety of terrain. The 64mm diameter provides smooth roll and solid speed, while the 35mm width and medium riding patch offer a balanced feel for streets, parks, ramps and general cruising.
The original Cross Bones shape features a symmetrical double-radial profile combined with the classic OG sidecut design for predictable handling and a smooth transition from edge to riding surface. Center-set bearings keep the wheel balanced, while the double-sided front and back Cross Bones graphics allow the artwork to be shown from either side.
