Classic white wheels. The base of most of the setups around are classic white wheels. Today we got some clssic white Ywheels over here:

Ywheels were designed to fit perfectly on Ytrucks. They have centralized dual bearings. The hardness and grip of our wheels was tunned in various types of surfaces to provide better performance, stability and control.

Compared to older sets of YWheels you really feel the harder new urethane. The wheels roll even better than the old ones and even the old ones had a TOP performance. With a set of these wheels you push your fingerboard another step into the direction of a real skateboard. YWheels are dualbearing wheels. They work perfect together with Ytrucks. If you use Blackriver-Trucks you need to glue in the nuts and you´re ready to go! Get this color right here: Click Click Click! or some other color directly over here: Click!

Maybe some of you know Uschi Obermaier? Well, when I first saw these glasses this was the first thing I got in my mind. You´re guessing right! Today we have some Yellowood sunglasses over here:

And one more:

Well, summer might be over but you need sunglasses the whole year. Trust me! A really cool detail on these glasses: The Yellowood sign is mounted with Yellowood/YTrucks screw to the frame. I really appreciate details like this :-)

These glasses aren´t available at the moment. And I really don´t know, if they will be back in stock sometime soon or this is just an older part of the Yellowood product range. And even if you don´t like this cut and just want something bigger or in wayfarer style, just check out the other sunglasses at the Yellowoodstore: Click!

BIG THX! For the package De Goyri bros!

Product Blog: Joycult – 60D Slime Green 0

September 22, 2015 by MartinB. | 6:34 pm

Maybe some of you remember my previous Joycult product blog two days ago!? Well, as I posted up the site: the wheels are back! I found the lost fingerboard wallet at the beach of Katwijk aan zee so now I can show you some pictures of the new Joycult 60D wheels in slime green color! Lets call this the Joycult wonder.

So who you gonna call? Ohm, yes, Ghostbusters, but this time you should call Slimer:

Another one:

“Joycult Original Shape and Premium 60D “INSANE-A-THANE” , in Slime Green. These wheels are great for all terrains but are most shred-worthy on the roughest of surfaces. This durometer will handle anything you throw beneath it. From grit to granite, these wheels are made for shredding

Joycult wheels are handmade in Brantford, Ontario Canada by Matt Watkinson using only premium materials. From face, to bearing, Joycult wheels are designed for fingerboarders, by fingerboarders.”

What could I tell you about the wheels? The wheels look perfect. You really feel the softness and they fit on YTrucks and even on Blackriver-Trucks without glue. The slime green color is solid and you get a little cat sticker with every set of wheels. So H Y P E ! The shipping from Canada to Germany only took 5 days. In my opinion this was really quick and they arrived well packed in my mailbox. The wheels cost 40 USD per set and you can choose between these colors:

You really need to hurry up when the stock is online! This brand is really new to the scene and just kicked ass in a really short time! Matt is a super nice dude and you should check out Joycult over here:
