Rob Washburn kicks us some info about Bones “Rough Rider“ Wheels. Not every skateboarder has an ideal place to go and ride. We here at Bones wheels wanted to design a wheel that could not only be used for cruising and general riding but also to support skaters in areas without any access to smooth terrain. We believe we have succeeded at developing such a wheel and we have it here in our product line known as Rough Riders. They come in a variety of colors: white, black, red, green, orange and yellow. They come in two sizes: 56 and 59mm. The challenge for us was not just to design a wheel that could handle riding on rough surfaces but to design a wheel that would thrive on many types of harsh terrain. First we needed to design a hub to support the types of impacts the wheels would receive on rougher terrain as well as protect the bearings from these same stresses. We also needed the hub to bind naturally to our ATF formula without the need of any mechanical bonds. This natural bond allows more synergy between the hub and the urethane giving you optimum rebound and and unbelievably roll over harsh terrain. The two formulas within this one wheel, the hub and the All Terrain Formula are designed to work together to create a higher rebound. When rolling over obstacles in your path the energy absorbed by impacts on the wheel are then transferred into acceleration when passing over these obstacles. This is what we mean by higher rebound. These improved technologies for Rough Riders have opened many doors to terrain that was once overlooked. Rough Riders are not only used on roads less traveled but they are also a great cruiser wheel to cruise to the store and get that six pack. Boom!
