Orangatang Stimulus 70mm 80a Longboard Wheels
The Orangatang Stimulus 70mm 80a wheels are the perfect middle-ground option in the Stimulus lineup, delivering a balanced mix of grip, speed, slide control, and durability. Known as one of the most versatile wheels Orangatang makes, the Stimulus is ideal for riders who want one setup that can handle freeriding, dancing, carving, tricks, and commuting.
Poured in Orangatang’s legendary Happy Thane urethane and finished with stone-ground lips, these wheels are ready to slide right out of the box. The 80a durometer provides a smooth, lively ride with more roll speed and longevity than the softer 77a version—making it a true all-around freeride favorite.
