George Powell creates a wheel that's the best of both worlds.
The new Dragon Formula (DF) Urethane is another break-through in wheel science from Powell Peralta. DF-93A Dragons will not only roll over rough terrain, but also grip and slide like a 99A/101A, so that you can do all your normal tricks and more on the greater range of skate terrains made skateable by its softer 93A hardness. Imagine all the crusty spots that you can now skate because of DF urethane!Speed: Dragons are fast because DF-93A is super high rebound, an industry leading 18-20% higher than hard wheels. This higher rebound means you won’t lose speed in bowls or parks the way you would with an ordinary 93A wheel, and you will roll much smoother and faster on rough streets and sidewalks…even in places you used to have to walk your board. Grip & Slide: Dragons slide on both rough and smooth terrains, and also grip when you need it. This is because Dragon Formula is not just an ordinary mid-90’s wheel formula. It has been developed over a ten year period to optimize and fine tune it to perfection. No other wheel can do what these Dragons can.Durability: Dragon Formula is not only smooth, fast and slidable, it is also durable. The slidability comes from its unique blend of premium, high performance materials not by making the urethane weak so it will slide as the urethane wears away, creating flats spots.
