Rayne is out to make the most thaney, long-lasting wheel ever with their new “Round 1” Prototypes. Working closely with the factory has allowed them to refine a ‘thane that is buttery smooth with lots of control. The Round 1s are a limited run released with the intention of showcasing some of the urethane formulas they are working on.
These 65mm wheels are quick, compact and totally shreddable. They’re poured in a classic freeride shape; round lips, a mid-sized, stone-ground contact patch of 47 mm, and an encapsulated core for fast acceleration. They’re a soft 75a, which is unique for a freeride wheel, but that just means that there’s going to be a lot of urethane trails. The formula is rumored to be awesome durability, and that attribute will continue to be a hallmark of the new Rayne wheel formula for future versions as well.

Importing boards to Europe is a thing of the past! Bastl boards is the local board company of your dreams, if you’re in Germany. Bastl Boards is a boardmaker based out of Leipzig, Germany, notorious for making top-notch dancer boards out of unique materials that you can’t find in many other board constructions. This time, they made a quick, nimble 40-incher freestyle deck that rivals the classics!
Introducing the Bolero; a 42.5 inch freestyle legend dead ringer. Featuring supple 3D twin kicktails and wheel flares, the shape of this board is perfect for doing the steps and twirlies all the while keeping open the possibility of doing small, quick boardslides and some introductory freeride. The concave is mellow, reaching 1 cm deep at the deepest point.
Bastl Boards Design & Construction
The construction of this board is unique in that it uses a combination of carbon stringers and a ply of organic basalt as the top and bottom ply. This creates a super unique flex pattern that’s friendly and consistent for boardwalking and freestyle. It also doesn’t lose its spring over a period of time.
If you’re looking for a do-everything cruiser/freestyle hybrid, the new Bastl Boards Bolero is the board for you! Hit the link and grab yours today!

Around a year ago, there was a reform in the skate scene. Some of the most legendary riders from all over, scattered across the map with different companies and initiatives each, one by one, started to drop their companies and joined a mysterious name: Prism.
What was Prism? Were they a board company? Were they a lifestyle company? Were they just a name that they all decided to compete under? No, Prism was all of these things.
Bones has been a prominent skate company ever since the word skateboard came into existence. They were the trailblazers of the Bones Reds bearings, purveyors of the perfect hard wheel, and now, they are dabbling into shreddable wheel territory!
Introducing the Bones Rough Riders, a street/tech slide hybrid wheel made of Bones’ new ATF (All-Terrain Formula) urethane formula. It’s hard enough to pop the high ollies that you’re used to, but it’ll shave speed with quick, snappy powerslides and gnarly hard-wheel slides. They’re also extremely versatile as filmer wheels, since they roll for a long time and dampen out road vibrations.
These boards are perfect for your double kick cruiser or as an easy cheat wheel for slashing banks and your favorite features! Take them to your favorite spot and get skating!
Update: 59MM Rough Riders are out. Tackle the chunder!

Bones Rough Riders in Action
Check out the 56″ and 59″ wheels in action across all types of terrain. Great for city riding where things can get a little rough and also great for testing out some new terrain off-road. We get stellar footage of the terrain and a wheel tech walkthrough of the Rough Riders.
Through the tech upgrades in the wheels, Bones tells us that you’ll get much higher rebound, despite the abnormal surfaces. We’re anxious to get bouncing on some granite with these new Bones Rough Riders!
