Product Blog: Winkler Wheels – Fatman Signature Wheels
January 29, 2018 by MartinB. | 2:48 pm
It feels like more than a decade since Winkler Wheels have released a new set of wheels. The last big step in the history of WW was adding a graphic print on professional fingerboard bearing wheels a few years ago. Don´t get me wrong, that must not be bad! I´m a Winkler customer since the first hour. I had a set of WW of every cut and generation. From the metal core to the first bearing, I bought them all. A decade ago WINKLER was the person with all that mindblowing stuff. He changed the whole fingerboard wheel game. BUT, to be honest, there was silence around WW the last couple years. And the competition is much bigger now. Especially if you watch all the “new” things the other companies blow out on the market. Fingerboarder always search for new products and evolution. If you don´t change your products or create something new, the people will check out other brands and buy their latest creations. This is normal in the fingerboarding scene and our world.
What to tell you about Fatman? Well he is some of the nicest guys I´ve ever met in the fingerboarding scene. And he is a great fingerboarder as well. I would love to be like him or if I were a girl I want to get fucked by him. Thats all I can say.
So I´m really happy to tell you, Winkler Wheels dropped a new shape. The Fatman signature wheels are out for a few months now and these wheels are hot like the person behind the name of these wheels. Lets have a look at the Winkler Wheels Fatman edition wheels:
Shape:
“The Fatman’s signature wheels are characterized by a wider contact surface compared to the other signature wheels and also to the Big Daddy’z. They can be used for any styles and surfaces.” This shape is big, no wait it´s hugeI This is up to date. Every fingerboarder rides bigger decks with boardrails and stuff like that and a lot of the establihed wheels are to small for this trend. So it makes sense to produce some bigger wheels. Now you can ride your wide trucks and 35mm+ decks without looking stupid.

Ya all know Winkler Wheels. And ya all know these are some perfect round and roll and roll and roll. These wheels are, as the other WW, single bearing wheels. They fit perfect on Blackriver-Trucks and for other kinds of trukcs you need the world famous FBS spacer. The wheels last long and work superb under all conditions. The new cut is the most up to date shape they offer at the moment. Hopefully these wheels will be dropped in more colors. I think the Fatman shape could be the topseller of the product range. I´m really excited about these wheels and really recommend you guys to get a set of this wheels. You wont regret buying. Get yourself a little bit Fatman. These wheels are in stock right now. Get them right over here: Click!
This product blog wouldn´t be possible without Fatman. Since Blackriver and I are not in contact anymore – because Martin and I have different opinions on different topics – I did not expect a Blackriver related product blog on this site again. I still share everything they do, but as I said, there is no contact anymore and I think there is no interest in some close collaboration anymore. So BIG THX Fatman for sending me this set of wheels. You are right, these wheels feel sexy and really need attention.
