Ricta Skateboard Wheels Guide

Ricta Wheels is a premium wheel brand from the good folks over at NHS Inc.

Ricta proudly boats they are “the Leader in “Speed Reinvented” Wheel Technology. Ricta Wheels are made with “NRG” Hi-Energy Urethane Formula. Hands down the fastest non-cored wheel in skateboarding! Pro tested and proven more flat spot resistant than any other wheel on the market.”

Ricta offer four basic wheel shapes; Slim, Mid, Round and Wide across their range of Naturals, Cores, Speedring and Cloud wheels so there is a wheel to suit everyones style of skateboarding.

 

Naturals
Ricta Naturals urethane is our most balanced formula for maximum speed and smooth roll. Naturals urethane slides when you want it and gives you control when you need it. Our longest lasting urethane with fewer flat spots.

Cores
Ricta cored wheels provide optimal speed and reduced rolling resistance. They maintain shape integrity when landing tricks and are proven to roll over cracks with less feedback than conventional urethane wheels.

Speedrings
Ricta Speedrings’ unique core design puts urethane around the bearing bore like a non-cored wheel. You get the feel of a traditional wheel with the speed and reduced rolling resistance of a cored wheel. Less Rattle, More Roll.

Clouds
Ricta Clouds are the most diverse cruiser wheel family in skateboarding. With available sizes from 52-60mm and 78, 86, and 92a durometers, Ricta makes a wheel for any terrain or setup.
