Orangatang 4 President 70 mm Cruising Longboard Skateboard Wheels (Set of 4) Review

Orangatang 4 President 70 mm Cruising Longboard Skateboard Wheels (Set of 4)

  • CARVING / RACE WHEELS – High-traction longboard wheels for pumping, hard carving, slalom, downhill, and general cruising and commuting.
  • FAST AND LIGHT – At 70mm in diameter, the 4 Presidents carry speed and accelerate quickly between carves and out of turns.
  • MAXIMUM TRACTION – Sharp, square lips provide maximum grip while still sliding smoothly when desired.
  • HAPPY THANE – The original Orangatang urethane formula is fast, smooth, plush, and grippy with a buttery-smooth slide. Now available in four durometers: 77a (blue), 80a (orange), 83a (purple), and 86a (yellow).
  • STRONG, SUPPORTIVE CORE – The encapsulated core maintains a smooth ride and supports the lips for excellent traction and crisp slides.

Whether you’re weaving your way through a hairpin-riddled downhill course or a pedestrian-infested urban jungle, the Orangatang 4President is your candidate of choice.

An offset bearing seat and smaller race/slalom shape allows for grippy hard carving and pumping with quick acceleration. Sharp, slightly angled edges allow the wheel to stay railed in hard carves and technical downhill runs, while a thick and solid lip profile ensures a smooth and predictable drift when kicked sideways.

The 4President is poured in Orangatang’s proprietary Happy Thane formula for high roll speed, excellent traction, and smooth, predictable drifts.

Now available in blue 77a: the smoothest, fluffiest, grippiest, most thane-line-leaving urethane in Orangatang’s history! The blue 4President offers max traction and smoothness in our most compact race wheel. Fits the bill for hard carving and pumping, commuting, slalom, and technical downhill.

About Orangatang

Orangatang Wheels was hatched in 2008 as a means of advocating for the civil liberties of the indigenous river capybaras of Southern California. They also gained international praise in 2009 for their brief and completely unrelated foray into exotic animal jerky manufacturing and wholesale.
