The Optimo is Remember Collective’s premium freeride wheel. Comes with four durometers to choose from, which give the riders an option of what kind of style they are doing.
The new wheels feature a super-wide, offset core that’s designed to fully support the lips of the wheel. The additional support reduces deformation of the lip, allowing you to get sideways at lower speeds. A larger, more supportive core also allows the wheel to roll faster and improves slide performance and predictability. You can expect these to grip or slip on command. With a stoneground finish, no need to break these wheels in. Stick them on your trucks and ready to slide away.
The colors indicate the durometer:
Yellow 74a: a smooth silky slide and best one for hot weather (Queensland take note)
Pink 76a: a bit faster sliding than the yellow, and a good choice for Sydney summer sessions
White 78a: best for thane lines and you really feel that easy to slide hot butter thane that Remember is renown for. They will be slippery on really hot roads so probably not best for Far North Queensland but epic in Melbourne.
Purple 80a = get me some skids. This is the wheels if you want to bust out the biggest slides. A good learn to slide wheel as it starts sliding immediately at almost any speed, especially if on a hot road.
