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

Compatible Truck Sizes

For a 9.0" deck like The Heated Wheel Tom Remillard Pro Model, the truck axle width should closely match the deck width for optimal performance. Only Independent Trucks and Venture Trucks are included:

• Independent Trucks:

  • Size 149 (8.5" axle width): Slightly narrower but compatible, offering a balanced setup for pool and park skating.

  • Size 159 (8.75" axle width): Closer match for 9.0" decks, providing stability for transition skating.

• Venture Trucks:

  • Size 5.8 (8.5" axle width): Compatible for a stable setup, though slightly narrow for the deck’s width.

  • Note: Venture does not offer a 9.0" axle width, so Independent 159 is the best match for stability.

• General Guideline: Trucks with an 8.75" axle width (Independent 159) are the best match for this deck, while 8.5" trucks (Independent 149 or Venture 5.8) offer a slightly narrower stance for agility.

Preferred Wheel Sizes

The 9.0" Heated Wheel Tom Remillard Pro Model deck’s wide, popsicle shape supports larger wheel sizes suited for park 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 9.0" 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.
