Carver Skateboards Roundhouse 70mm Mag – Indigo (78A)
Take your surf skate experience to the next level with the Carver Skateboards Roundhouse Wheels – 70mm Mag – Indigo (78A). Designed for ultimate grip and responsive carving, these premium wheels are perfect for riders who want more traction and smoother roll, especially at higher speeds or on rougher surfaces.
Built by Carver specifically for surf skateboarding, the 70mm Mag wheels feature a wide contact patch and a soft 78A durometer that sticks to the pavement like wax to a surfboard. Whether you’re carving steep hills, bombing fast turns, or simply cruising your daily route, these wheels will hold the line with confidence and style.
What Sets the 70mm Mag Apart?
The “Mag” in 70mm Mag stands for “magnet,” and that’s exactly how these wheels perform—they stick to the ground with incredible grip. That makes them ideal for riders who demand high levels of control through deep turns, want to avoid speed wobbles, and crave that ultra-smooth carving feel that mimics real surfing.
The soft 78A urethane absorbs road vibration and keeps you locked in during rail-to-rail transitions. Combined with the 70mm diameter, you get excellent momentum, making each pump more powerful and efficient. These wheels are perfect for flowing through hilly terrain or navigating urban streets with confidence.
Key Features:
-
Size: 70mm – provides higher roll speed and longer rides.
-
Durometer: 78A – softer urethane for superior grip and shock absorption.
-
Contact Patch: Wide for maximum surface grip and stability.
-
Core Placement: Offset for improved energy return and carving leverage.
-
