Artisan Details & Authenticity
Natural aesthetic variations, such as tiny air bubbles, streaks, or light hub marks, are part of the handcrafted process. They don’t impact performance and in fact highlight the artisanal quality of each wheel.
Usage Focus
Crafted for indoor derby training and competition, especially on polished wood and smooth sport‑court surfaces, supports tight corner control, fast acceleration, and stability.
The natural-colored urethane may yellow when exposed to sunlight. To maintain its original look, avoid direct sun exposure. The wheel’s lip may appear slightly more yellow than the rest due to the manufacturing process—this is normal.
These high-performance wheels are not designed for drag-to-stop use. Flat spotting from excessive dragging or hub damage from incorrect bearing installation is not covered under warranty. Flat spotting is a characteristic of urethane under excessive friction and can occur on all roller skate wheels.
