Shane O'Neill is not just another name in the collaboration. April is his; he founded and runs it, so these wheels come from a collaboration between his brand and Spitfire, not just any sponsorship contract.
The cut is the Classic, the world's best-seller and what Spitfire has always made. Narrow contact surface, 15.6 mm on 32 mm width. Less rubber on the ground means less friction and faster response, which is exactly what you look for in technical tricks and on ledges.
52 mm is the smallest size that still makes sense for street. The deck is lower, flips are lighter, and the trade-off is less speed and less tolerance for uneven ground. It's the choice for those who ride on smooth surfaces and prefer control over speed.
Natural urethane, unpigmented, hand-poured in San Francisco.
