Powerflex Wheels, born in 1975… Reignited in 2015….
Powerflex brought choice and a new level of urethane quality to a fairly bland skateboard world. With the Powerflex 5 wheels they are doing it again! When Powerflex came onto the early skate scene, most companies offered few sizes and colours, Powerflex offered the 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9 in a variety of colours. They had wheels that were ridden by tons of skaters, supported by an amazing team. Now it’s time to do it again. Powerflex is back!
These Powerflex 5 wheels are the perfect addition to any old school set up, or anyone who just wants a rad cruising wheel. At 63mm and 88a the Powerflex 5 wheels are ideal for park/bowl riding. If you can find one, they would handle really well on a snake run. These wheels are back from the past to kick your crappy skate wheels in the nuts.
