Powell had already been baking his own urethane wheels and building his own boards since the mid 1970s, and in 1979 the pair formed the Bones Brigade, the team that included Ray \"Bones\" Rodriguez, Steve Caballero, Tony Hawk, Lance Mountain, Rodney Mullen, Tommy Guerrero and Mike Vallely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eToday Powell Peralta still puts a big focus on urethane research and its own wheel formulas. Dragon Formula covers street and park, while Soft Slide Formula (SSF) covers cruising, freeride and downhill. Riders pick Powell because the wheels last, roll fast and slide when you want them to, and because the brand has been part of skating for close to five decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are G-Slide wheels best for?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nRiding rough streets on a regular skateboard. They're soft enough to smooth out bad bitumen but small enough to keep your deck low, and SSF urethane means they still slide. Great for commuting, transition cruising and mellow slides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does 85a mean?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n85a is the hardness on the A scale. Lower numbers are softer and grippier, higher numbers are harder and slidier, and most street wheels sit around 99a to 101a. At 85a these G-Slides soak up cracks and rough bitumen, while the SSF urethane still lets them break into a slide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill 56mm wheels fit my board or do I need risers?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nMost popsicle decks run 56mm wheels without risers on mid or high trucks. On low trucks, add a 1\/8\" riser to avoid wheel bite in hard turns. They're also a fine size for small cruisers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo they come with bearings?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nNo. You get a set of 4 wheels with no bearings. Any standard 608 skateboard bearing fits, so you'll need a set of 8 (two per wheel), plus spacers if your bearings don't have them built in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Buy From Twelve Board Store\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔️ Free shipping Australia-wide on orders over $90\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔️ Expert skate advice from real riders, 7 days a week\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔️ Easy returns for a hassle-free experience\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔️ Huge range of skate, snow \u0026amp; electric gear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔️ Proudly Australian owned \u0026amp; operated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBones Brigade roots.
