About Globe

Globe is a Melbourne skate brand through and through. Brothers Peter, Stephen and Matt Hill grew up skating in Melbourne, and in 1985 they started importing skateboards out of Fitzroy, a business that became Hardcore Enterprises. The Globe brand itself was born in 1994, starting with skate shoes. The company listed on the Australian Securities Exchange in 2001, moved into its Port Melbourne headquarters, and launched its own line of skateboards, cruisers and longboards in 2010.

Today Globe is still led by the Hill family, with Matt Hill as CEO, and still based in Port Melbourne. Its cruisers and longboards are known for epoxy-pressed maple decks, soft Globe cruiser wheels and bold, art-led graphics. The same cruiser wheels that come on Globe completes are sold separately, so you can freshen up or soften up any setup.

FAQs

What are Globe Conical Cruiser wheels best for?
Cruising and carving on longboards and cruisers. The 70mm size rolls over rough roads, and the stone-ground 47mm riding surface grips from the first push.

What does 83a mean?
83a is a medium-soft cruiser hardness on the A scale. It's smooth over cracks and rough footpaths but a little firmer and livelier than a 78a wheel, so it still feels responsive for carving and the odd trick.

Do I need risers for 70mm wheels?
On most drop-through longboards and cruisers with wheel wells, no. On a topmount longboard, a 1/8" to 1/4" riser is usually needed. On a standard popsicle deck, 70mm is too big without tall risers.

Do they come with bearings?
No, they're sold as a set of 4 wheels without bearings. You'll need 8 standard 608 skate bearings (2 per wheel), which fit every standard skateboard wheel.
