High Fidelity Wheels 51mm

The Stereo Sound Agency have been at the heart of style in the skateboarding industry since 92, when a couple of the best skateboarders around started showing us all how it’s done. Rocking that sort of raw swagger and naming themselves a sound agency has thus since led them to be probably the coolest company today. Sure, I may sound a twat but it’s true and you know it.

So when Earl decided to start making wheels, you were excited; don’t lie and say that you wern’t. This bro can flick one of the finest tre flips in slippers for crying out loud, and pull it off with a charmingly smug grin. We simply must have his wheels. And the fact with these wheels is that they are designed for a skateboarder’s skateboarder; there’s no gimmick, no sly tricks involved – these wheels are 100% urethane. So leave those super-amazing, mega-deluxe, allegedly-make-you-have-more-pop-than-Wainwright air core wheels for the wannabes with all the gear and no idea.

The density of the Hi-Fi urethrane blends well enough to skate anything tough or the smoothest marble and after a good dozen sessions they’ve shown no sign of giving up. Basically they tick all your boxes and were made to be skated. Chris Pastras and Jason Lee know what they’re doing and it’s ok to trust ’em, so leave them 51mm spinning air core rims at the skate shop, and sort yourself out with some proper shit son!
