Blue Series

70 × 42 mm · Offset · 78A

The original 70 mm offset freeride wheel behind Rob Laing’s 220 ft standup. Stone-ground, round-lipped, and poured in 78A Original formula for a live, predictable slide.

In January 2014, Sydney rider Rob Laing, on a set of first-production-batch Blue Series he had ridden for only a few hours the day before, threw a 200 ft (61 m) standup at Sydney’s Thane Destroyer, past Liam Morgan’s famed 180 ft world record (previously Ryan V.’s). Two years later he followed it with a 220 ft standup finished with a shuv-out.

Simply put, Blue Series thane gives a lot of slide while staying controlled, predictable, and consistent.

The Blue Series keeps an extremely live, chalky-textured, and natural-feeling slide. Whether you are a new or experienced rider, the Blue Series will make freeride progression easier and more satisfying than ever. They come with a stone-ground surface and large rounded outer lips for effortless slides straight out of the box.

The Blue Series also make a great choice for shorter hybrids or cruisers due to the thane’s excellent roll speed and stable grip/slide characteristics across different surfaces.
