ORANGATANG Dad Bod 105mm

 DESIGNED FOR SPEED. BUILT FOR COMFORT.

The Orangatang Dad Bod is the most high-performance 100mm+ urethane skateboard wheel in existence. Four years of development, our new TrypoCore, and our tried-and-true Happy Thane formula combine to create the ultimate big-wheel experience at a shockingly light weight.

Designed for next-level commuting, long-distance pushing, long-distance pumping, and e-skate, these wheels are meant to roll. The large 105mm diameter provides exceptional roll speed, tons of momentum, smooth rolling, and absurd distance per push—it's kinda like cheating. Just add risers!

Shape:

 Firm yet cush outer lips provide comfort and speed.  Big wheels tend to be hard to control, so we developed our new Traction Trench technology on the inner lips for dependable control and grip. The bearing seats are offset so the wheels can be flipped for narrower boards. The wide, smooth contact surface increases grip and the rounded edges prevent catching on cracks. 

Featuring the brand new Orangatang TrypoCore:

• Significantly reduces overall weight
• Stiff glass-filled urethane construction increases grip and durability
• Wide with a deep valley shape for extra urethane damping without feeling sloppy
• Compatible with e-board pulleys designed for Kegel and Caguama style cores. E-board manufacturers can design new pulleys around these cores for even more power and control. 

Recommended Loaded Setups: Works with most top-mount boards can work (with enough risers).  Loaded’s personal favorites are:

• Vanguard with ¼” risers, Paris 180s and Knuckle bushings. Flowy and fast with ultra deep carves.
• Mata Hari with ½” of risers, Paris 180s, Nipple bushings with a cup washer roadside.  Scaled up big boy skateboard.
• Ballona with ½” of risers, Paris 180s, Nipple bushings with a cup washer roadside, flipped wheels.  The ultimate flat-land-cruiser that rolls forever and rolls over everything.
