Wheel Shields keep you dry while skating on wet roads, end wheel bite, prevent wheel lock and more.
Wheel Shields are a longboard skateboarding accessory with three powerful features: Splash Protection - Typically when skating over a puddle or wet environment, your wheels will fling dirty water all over your clothes. Instead, Wheel Shields act
similar to a mud flap and keep rain and sludge on the ground. Your longboard is now a versatile all-weather transportation vehicle.
"Wheel bite" elimination - "Wheel bite" is a dangerous safety problem that injured Chase and inspired him to invent Wheel Shields. “Wheel bite” occurs during a hard turn when the bottom of the board comes in contact with the top of the wheel. This stops the wheel suddenly and throws the rider to the ground. By creating a physical barrier around each wheel, Wheel Shields effectively eliminate “wheel bite”. Instead of the board coming in contact with the wheel, it is stopped by the Wheel Shield, allowing the wheel to rotate freely.
New tricks - Wheel Shields also allow riders to stand directly on top of their wheels, opening up all sorts of new trick possibilities. You can invent brand new manuals, colemans, slides and dances with Wheel Shields!
Wheel Shields work universally with almost any longboard and attach to the end of each truck axle. We originally designed Wheel Shields to work with the nuts that come standard on longboards, but found that Wheel Shields would rotate off if you hit a curb or pushed them sideways. Wheel Shields mount using our custom nut setup to ensure they stay firmly in place. Almost all trucks are compatible with the custom nuts except Churchill RKPs, which have a non-standard thread count on the axle.
Wheel Shields work with almost all wheels 75mm and under. Certain wheels with massive contact patches or extreme shapes won’t work, but almost all of your favorites will. See the video for more details.
