DETAILS

How They Shred:

 

The R.A.D. Release wheels are designed to let you release your inner freeriding beast. James Kelly and Louis Pilloni, the founders of R.A.D. Wheels are monsters on the hills. If you haven’t seen any of their freeriding videos then do yourself a favor and go watch some. The R.A.D. Release wheels have a big crown core that creates a dense hold around your bearing. This gives you an overall higher roll speed and smoother slides. They are a center-set, stone-ground, and round-lipped wheel that get better and better as you wear into the different layers of urethane. The 78a option has a lot of grip so they will really perform best when freeriding at higher speeds, otherwise they do have a tendency to grip up rather quick. The 80a option is great for mild speeds and will last a little bit longer than the 78a’s. These wheels are truly an amazing wheel and are definitely taking the longboarding world by storm.

If the board is to be used for all-around riding or getting around town, spacers are NOT needed. Spacers sit between the bearings in the wheel and provide additional stability for more advanced riding.
Used to keep the bolts on your board nice and tight and/or to assemble the board.
Lubricant and cleaning kits are used to keep the bearings in the wheels turning quickly and smoothly; if this is your first board, these upgrades are not necessary. Make sure you love to ride first!

I learned 180 standies with these after struggling with my orangatang stimuli for weeks. Get the 80a for amazing slowspeed slides and huge fast slides.
The name says it all!

Ive had the 78a version of these wheels for about 5 weeks now, they are very smooth right out box and leave wide faint that lines. they are particle good at speed as they are very predictable and don't ice out like other wheels on the market. however i havent had these wheels for very long and they have worn about 15mm which is alot for me because im very lite (55kg) , and another negative is they slow alot during slides as the are such a low hardness. would recommended getting the 80a for that reason.

I have the 80a's on a Original Freeride 41 'Beast' w/ W-concave and calibur 50's and i love them on the first day with both (i got them together) i was throwing 180's in parking garage on my first run. They SHRED right off the bat no break in required. Even though there big you still get nice smooth spins at slower speeds. Compared to the O-tang 83a Stim's I rode they are more consistent in there slides and breaking point, plus they only make noise on slow speed slides. They grip great except when your getting in the high 30's they didn't lose grip when i was jamming carves but you could them starting to break contact. So overall Awesome all around wheel just for really high speeds get 78a's. But these are great I highly recommend them.
RAD quite literally

Simply they are fast and will grip a beautiful line but at the same time when you break out they are chatter free, quiet, and quiet when sliding. They slide better than Metro Motions even though they will grip more because of the contact patch as contradictory as that is. Just a great wheel!
