Always liked OJs. I rolled around a concrete park last night on some keyframes and they were so quiet and smooth it was butter. They make travelling while standing still a joy.
1:04 have been my favs since Skating as a kid. They look great spinning on a Board.
yes, they slide like butter. I have had the orange 60mm pair on my 77 alva for two years now and when i go to the park and do berts it's literally butter lol I just got this MPI fiberglass 29' board and added the green 60mm oj's and i'm already breaking them in.
Had the original OJs on my Logan Earth Ski, with Trackers. so smooth..
Much love and respect to you and your channel. I hope all is well for you and your family and everyone reading this.
@Shredz Shop hell yes guys this is awesome thanks for the awesome work keep it up 🤘😎 keep Shredding much 🤘 from South Africa 🇿🇦
Some of the best wheels out there, currently skating some 95A duro Nomads, and they are super solid. Perfect for the streets.
Good one OG 'bout OJ ... living iconic brand indeed
Superjuice make you feel that you have way more control at speed, my favourite...
Loving these fact files
Fogtowns a Bones Town, you come in riding any of this Oj Simpson, sh1tfire crap not by Powell, you leave in a body bag
@@R1SKYB1Z someone hacked my profile, I never said this comment but your comment made me laugh, threatening murder over some skateboard wheels 😂😂😂, get a grip on your life 😂
very informative and straight forward.
thank you.
I just got my OJ II Classic 92a speed wheels and I'm stoked ! They absolutely look just like the ones I had in 1989 skating the streets of Grand Prairie TX
Amazing! 🙌
I'm going to have to try some ojs. Good vid. Cheers
DBC.. Daily Blessings Coming!
Thank You ALL for Everything, Everyday!!
Riding some 0j elites 54s right now love them
Hey guys - Please consider making a video about the different teams such as BAKER / GIRL / PRIMITIVE etc. and their distinct styles / video aesthetics and potential riders you feel would be good additions to those teams, as its been interesting to us when we hear ''Oh he's a good fit for that team" - Let"s break it down and talk about it
A rad idea! Thank you!!
@@ShredzShop no worries you’d do a great job.
@phantombasedbread there’s so much more to explore it would be interesting
They did right
@@adielpalma3266 not so much at all. They’ve provided the “14 things about..” videos, etc.
But a deeper discussion about the type of target demographic one team has vs another, the look or aesthetic they look for in a rider, and perhaps they type of videos those teams put out vs another.
There’s a lot of deep discussion there and would make for a great piece.
I recently got some keyframes from a reccomendation at my local store and i fell in love with them
I bought keyframes since I usually only ride street, cuz there are parks in my area.
Those softer wheels are a game changer. Love them and I ain’t going back.
I just bot 💸 today 95a OJ conical 58mm with a 22mm CP & they worked swell with my 27 inch Quest Fishtail cruiser which I use for pivoting & sliding.
You guys never disappoint.
Thank you!
Back in the day I skated OJII Team Riders. Getting back into skateboarding I went with old familiars, 60mm 95A OJII Team Riders 😎 … good for street, parks, and just cruising.
I put Mini Super Juice wheels in my old deck for commuting and they're amazing!
I think for young kids on gnarly/crunchy concrete OJ Mini Super Juice are the way to go. 55mm 78A and when you've leveled up you can do tricks with them. For straight up cruising I love the OJ Mini Hot Juice. You won't need risers with your Indys. Lastly wait until you see the OJ Thunder Juice wheels in person. They're huge!!
RODE OJ III's from the 90's and they could absolutely rip on dirt trails. OJ makes an awesome variety of wheels. I prefer Spitfires for the hards (yes, ive skated elites) but OJ's definitely go off. Ricta cores pop, Bones are great but usually too expensive, and budget wheels definitely have their place while grinding for trick perfection.
Love OJ wheels! I ride Nomads since I’m mostly riding street and they work well at the park. Highly recommend Keyframes for cruising with versatility, they’re really good for kids learning too to avoid the hassle of pebbles and cracks.
People have been loving the nomads!
That orange zero deck is fireee
have only been out for a spin around the block on my 60mm super juices and i already love them. also surprised me how bouncy they were before i put them on the board, one rolled off the table i was working on and went bouncing away like a rubber ball lol
I brought some Nomads after seeing this, thanks. They are more suitable than the EZ edges I brought previously which were 101a. I only skate street paths so I needed an 95a 57mm Nomad set for comfort and a good allrounder.
Love the feedback!!
Excellent video.
Glad you liked it!
Super stoked to try the Nomads. 95a sounds prefect for me. Not a fan of super hard wheels. I've always thought 99 and 101 are way harder than what's needed for street skating. For normal skaters who aren't jumping down 15 stairs, 95A will give you all the hardness you need but feel smoother and less wear on your feet.
Honestly I would say 95a is a bit to soft unless your skating some real crusty street spots but other then that I would say 97a is better or a bigger 99a but agreed why you wanna skating street on 101a wheel like you need perfect ground for those wheels
I got the OJ 60 MM Hot Juice for my Roskopp Board and I go fast down the hills and in tight corners
I'm glad you guys did the OJ need to know vid I've been requesting in your past videos. Hehe... Glad to know more about the history of OJ wheels and their other products. Been using the Mini Super Juice for filming and skating the park or any sketchy spot. The Mini Juice would be the best go to filmer wheels. Quiet, fast, grippy, and you get to go over cracks without worries. Speaking of filming, hope you guys could cover the most iconic filmers and their styles. Like guys like Ryan Lee, Dr. Purpleteeth, Beagle, Ty Evans, and Richie Valdez, and Bill Strobeck.
A filmer vid would be a good one for sure!
The key frames are also sick too, I own both and both are great.
We need one of these on Slime Balls!
Mind I miss the old harnesses they used to have for the OJII wheels 97,95,93,90. Most the old Sant Cruz speed wheels were like that.
Mini super juice are fiiiiiire for crushing rough areas
A every thing you need to know vid on krooked would be nice
OJ Wheels are the best. I'm skating a set of 53mm ez edge wheels on my regular board and a set of plain janes on my cruiser. I switch wheels between them every so often. FASTEST wheels ever. It's too bad you skipped the 80s when they were under the Santa Cruz wheel umbrella with Bullets, Slimeballs and Speed Wheels.
I have Just ordered a set of Ojs Winkowsky signature wheels that will go with the Santa Cruz Henry Gartland deck I lately bought.
rip henry. we failed to save him.
To true Levi here in Oz we have clean water I fill up my bottles straight out of the tap,I never will buy a water out of a shop.Top shit legend keep up the good work and maybe a griptape one next mmm?
I really like their cruiser wheels. If I'm injured but can at least ride around, the soft 55mm ones are perfect for me. Not my choice for hardwheels though. I love my Speedlab 57mm 101a wheels. big wheels and tall trucks work for me.
I like there big soft wheels, good stuff.
From personal experience,
Key frames are a great wheel! They’re amazing for cruising and filming it’s not that hard and you can’t really power slide but they roll super smooth.
Elites are a great contender against STF and F4s. They grip and roll great and like I said, they perform at that level
Insane-a-thane are trash and feel like chalk, they sucked at street and they definitely managed to go from these to their elite formula.
OJ is a great alternative to Bones and Spits.
You guys should do a full history of skateboard wheels.
i’m a street skater and park skater and i skate a classic shape 10.0 size board and i use super juices they are awesome !
Sounds great! 🔥
Damn that’s a big ass board
@@robotcookies3632 Hosoi Hammer head is 10.5 in the center. Thicker veneer also. Close to a half inch which was the norm back in the 80s and early 90s old school decks. They didn't focuse
Does the super juice slide and grind?
Less go
What about the hot juice mini III's? They feel softer than the super juice because of their shape. Same duro though. 🔥
do the bearings not fall out of the Nomad wheels after wear? Thanks!
Love my Nomad’s
I love the 60mm, once you really break them in for a year or two they slide like butter.
Do they still feel soft on asphalt and such even when it starts to feel capable of sliding??
You can get Oj thunder juice wheels that are 75mm now!
Forgot about the thunderjuice which is a 75mm wheel
The perfect wheel
Yo that Zero board is in the new Tony Hawk game I never thought it was a real board.
Shredz, what is the intro music that you use for your “14 things you didn’t know about _____” videos??? Thank you!!!
Ill have to ask our editor!
Can you do everything you need to know about chocolate skateboard
What happened to OJ Little Doodies? I have set from close to 10 years ago and have been ginger with them because I can't find them anywhere. They look spherical, like a 56mm and 92a if I remember right. Need some replacements, anybody got some?
I have been on the 54mm Mini Combo Elites. Absolutely love them. These are the first OJ wheels I have put on my street board.
On my bowl board I have some 61mm (i think) Team Riders.
Overall I am a Bones guy but I ride a lot of ORBs lately.
Never rode Orbs. Have always loved Spitfire, but currently enjoying some OJ elite hardlines
You forgot the 75mm THUNDER Juice!!!! My current cruiser wheels and they are actually very surprisingly Fun as F. Never had so much fun cruising as I do with these juicy wheels.
How well are you liking the or s brand?? I like the look and team just haven't tried them yet.
@@jon5one7 Orbs are solid. Definitely recommend.
I do have the new Bones Dragon wheels on the way.
@@AdventuresInSkateboarding awesome my shop has a few good looking sets, I'll definitely try them out i mean for 27$ new you cant beat it. Really appreciate the response homie. Have a good one.
Did u guys have anything to do with shredz clothes back in the early 90’s
Ik y’all are working on that Krooked video, so I ain’t even gonna ask 😇
Bring back the OJII 🙌🏼
Spitfire?
That would be a good one. The Spitfire video is legendary.
14 things superstitions behind top red plys.
Forgot the mini juice. Actually done sessions with these
They make a 75mm thunder juice
I know I loved my O.J. IIs
Am out of rehab still jerkin it whilst I sobbing plus drug whilst vaguely I highly approval this videos.
What model name is that blue OJ wheel from the intro pic? I think those are 87a but can not find details on internet. - thanks
I thought they were not marketed individually, but actually saw a packaged set at a local skate shop. These wheels are 52mm and 95a durometer. I only know this because I ordered a complete Santa Cruz and these are the wheels it came with. They color coordinate them to match the board (my set were red). I ended up putting on riser pads and upgrading to Indy’s and super juice 60mm with Bones Reds for my skate style
Hell yeah OJ es undderated son!!
nomads are best wheels what i ever had for every type skateboarding- Good for cruising scooping tricks poverslides everything
Do creature pls🙏
love the super juice, have yet to find a cruiser wheel better
What happen to SIMS I used to ride green SIMS Snakes. I loved thoughts wheels
They’re actually coming back again now, under the Sims family, pretty rad!!
@@ShredzShop I have seen street snakes over in Great Briton. But never thought much about them they a marketed as roller skates. I can't get s size or formula if they are 64mm x 88a I would be all over them. Im a down hill rider
I'm all about OJs
No mention of the OJ2 freestyle wheels
What about OJ III ?
Can you do 14 things on Ricta or Huba huba?
Thunder juice?
super juice ftw \m/
You fogot about the oj thunder juice wheels
Keyframes are slower than others the same duro. Love the 95a formula
I found the same. I had the 54mm Keyframes and they felt slower to me.
@@TheReal_DeanDi have 56mm keyframes, but usually only ride 54mm. i really like Orbs pug wheels, they are 86a feel soft enough for rough asphalt but i can slide them when i want and keep their speed. dont like the mini logo 90a, they are kinda slow too but not as bad as the keyframes. ricta clouds 92a are too hard but the 87a are nice. i want to try the bones filmer wheels to compare them to spitfire charger 80hd which are a great for cheese grater asphalt and cruising.
Not gonna lie tho was a huge fan of gold wheels and hubba wheels when they was around back then. That’s all I skated between those two brands till I got bones. I wasn a big fan of the spitfire f1 street burners at the time so I stopped skating spitfire
I love oj wheels. I will not ride much of anything else but oj.
Everything u need to know about the gonz
Are 55mm slower than the 60mm super juice for riding in rough roads?
Usually the bigger the wheel, the faster it goes. (If they’re the same durometer). For rougher surfers you want a softer wheel so the super juice should be great.
95 durometer Nomads best park and street wheel period. You can skate spots with shitty ground like your at the park
Who’s the first skater in the bowl doing the tailslide front shuv?
John worthington
If youre going fast enough. Hot juice wheels do in fact ride on water. Not far but it is doable.
You forgot about the Thunder Juice wheels
The 3rd clip is my local
🔥
Come on boys like the video
No love for the Thunder Juices 😿💔
I was just going to make that comment. 75mm. 😁
YES !!! I love the 75 mm ThunderJuice! Funnest cruiser wheel because you can rip through any terrain with no probs. I actually spend more time on these than on my Milton Martinez Elites. 👍❤️🍻
I prefer OJ over Spitfire I ride some rough terrain :D
There's some dope new OJ wheels coming next month 🤫
They make a 75 mm wheel. Thunder juice.
do same video about ricta wheels 😢
Will do! 🤝
You forgot the 2 Team Rider shapes.
Give it to me
You should do a video about Slimeballs wheels. Same urethane and distributor as OJ wheels.
You just can’t beat OJs. Any style and any hardness just work. They are consistently great and they offer a lot of sick styles so you don’t get ugly ass yellow wheels that can’t stay white more than a minute.
Are slime balls and OJ the same urethane?
Same factory yet, but both make different durometers and shapes. So make sure you pay attention to that!
Drink out of the tap 👳 world-wide !
X amount of things about Tom Sims
I already know he commissioned the first half poop in so cal
My OJ's are freaking 75mm
First here
Cant say the hot juice isn't for tricks ...been seeing some sick tricks on concrete and dirt with them...have a pretty good time hitting the streets and dirt myself!!
