Orangatang Longboard Wheels In-Heat Orange 75mm 80A
by
Orangatang
SKU: OTANG-HEAT-ORN
Description
The Orangatang In Heat 75mm 80A Longboard Wheels (Orange) are the orange 80A version of Orangatang's 75mm In Heat. The sensible middle, and the one Orangatang hands to friends.
Wild and sticky action. The In Heat lives for summer. Sharp lips, suggestively rippled sidewalls, and a permanent forecast of short shorts and warm pavement: this is a wheel in its courting season, and the object of its affection is the road.
Poured in Orangatang's Happy Thane formula for grip, rebound, and speed. The 56mm contact patch spans the full width of the wheel, and the sharp lips bite into pavement at full lean, holding your line when the carve gets serious.
