There’s a lot of different sub categories within downhill skateboarding, one of the most fun being freeride, a style that involves doing larger stand up slides on slippery wheels.
Right now in eskate, wheels companies tend to focus on the grippy high proformance compounds that compose both eskate a downhill skating wheels. But no one has tried to make a 100mm free ride wheels specifically for doing larger stand up slides on an eskate. I think a 100+ mm 80a+ freeride wheel for eskate would be sick, and open up a whole new style of riding eskate. Somthing similar to landyachtz ez hawgs, just larger and with a kegel core

The first TB110 batch in 78A 110mm Kegel core are pretty darn close to that.

yea, but they’re kinda soft. I’m thinking a larger rounded lip stone ground wheel, something ~85a.
The 85mm purple (83mm) orangatang caguamas are probably the best option for sliding an esk8. Although they are fairly wide, they have a slightly rounded lip and 83A is hard enough for some sliding
