Heated Wheel

Slam Time 9.6

€69,99 €99,99

Dive into the ultimate vert experience with The Heated Wheel Slam Time 9.6" Skateboard Deck, a tribute to Neil Blender’s first pro graphic from his G&S days. Founded by the ‘80s and ‘90s skate legend, The Heated Wheel blends retro-inspired designs with modern craftsmanship. This 9.6" x 31.5" deck features a ‘90s-inspired ramp shape with cut-in rails, a wider body, and a shorter, old-school nose, adorned with Blender’s classic Slam Time artwork on a varied top stain. Crafted from 7-ply Canadian maple with a medium concave and a 15.75" wheelbase, it’s built for pool, vert, and transition skating. Ideal for skaters seeking a wide, stable platform, this deck delivers durability and nostalgic style.

Key Features

  • 7-Ply Canadian Maple: Single cold-pressed construction ensures a durable, lightweight deck with consistent pop and strength.

  • 9.6" Width: Wide, ramp-shaped design with cut-in rails ideal for pool, vert, and transition skating, offering maximum stability.

  • Medium Concave: Provides a balanced, responsive board feel for precise control in bowls and ramps.

  • Slam Time Graphic: Neil Blender’s iconic artwork, a nod to his first G&S pro graphic, on a varied top stain.

  • Shaped Deck: 15.75" wheelbase with a shorter nose and wider body enhances pool and vert performance.

Compatible Truck Sizes

For a 9.6" deck like The Heated Wheel Slam Time, the truck axle width should closely match the deck width for optimal performance. Only Independent Trucks and Venture Trucks are included:

  • Independent Trucks:

    • Size 169 (10.0" axle width): Closest match for 9.6" decks, offering maximum stability for pool and vert skating.

    • Size 159 (8.75" axle width): Narrower but compatible, providing a more agile setup for park skating.

  • Venture Trucks:

    • Size 6.1 (8.75" axle width): Compatible but narrower, best for skaters prioritizing maneuverability.

    • Note: Venture does not offer a 9.6" axle width, so Independent 169 is the best match for stability.

  • General Guideline: Trucks with a 10.0" axle width (Independent 169) are the best match for this deck, while 8.75" trucks (Independent 159 or Venture 6.1) offer a narrower stance for agility.

Preferred Wheel Sizes

The 9.6" Heated Wheel Slam Time deck’s wide, shaped design supports larger wheel sizes suited for pool and transition skating:

  • 56-58mm: Ideal for park and hybrid street/transition skating, balancing speed and grip for carving and technical tricks.

  • 58-60mm: Best for pools, ramps, and skateparks, offering faster rolls and momentum for smooth rides over rough surfaces.

  • 60-62mm: Suited for cruising or heavy transition skating, maximizing speed and stability in bowls.

  • General Guideline: For a 9.6" deck, 58-60mm wheels are most popular for pool and park setups, while 56-58mm wheels suit mixed terrain. Opt for softer wheels (80A-83A) for grip in bowls and harder wheels (83A or higher) for smoother surfaces.
