Pantheon Sliders wheels are on the menu! The Sliders are a 66mm slide wheel that prioritize grip and feedback and a high value, long lasting slidey experience. These wheels are an expression of what we think is important in a smaller wheel, solving some of the issues that we find pretty typical of smaller wheels. Usually, wheels in the 65mm range have a bit of a rough ride due to shallow urethane depth as a result of using one of a couple stock freeride cores available at most wheel manufacturing facilities.
We prioritized feedback and longevity with this design by designing a custom core. The core features peaks and valleys that you might be accustomed to seeing in much larger downhill wheel cores, helping the urethane to stay on the hub and provide for consistent wear across the contact patch. But we did it with a core that is only slightly over 35mm in diameter, meaning you get a lot of urethane depth to play with and more bang for your buck. On the Sliders, that’s a whopping 15.4mm of urethane depth. This is actually a more standard urethane depth when compared to most 70mm slide wheels. That’s a lot of wheel. This pays you back in longevity, and it also makes the wheels feel super plush underfoot.
Lastly, the Sliders come with skin. Our manufacturing methods result in no mold release on these wheels, so you don’t have to wash them with soap to get them feeling right. The 74a are quite grippy out of the box and even suitable for a Surfskate deck, while the 78a are a touch easier to get sliding right away. And because they have a wider contact patch than many wheels of similar size, they offer quite a bit of mechanical grip. This results in a nice, in-the-pavement feeling slide with decent stopping power. These are not what some would call “cheater wheels.” They are built to do the job of slowing you down when you need to cut speed, and they will reliably hold you on the pavement when you need them to.
Hop on a set of Sliders now! We’ve got a limited time starter deal on these to get them under feet ASAP. Add another set for only $39.20 so you can try both duros!

The 78a sliders are light and stick to the pavement nicely. They’re the perfect wheel to slap on a cruiser board when you want that big wheel grip and feel without the added weight. I can’t wait to try them on a longer deck.

Grabbed both duros because I can’t avoid a discount. The LowTide comes equipped (black higher duro in my case) and they feel right at home, which I expected. I have used the lower duro milky ones on my soulboardiy deck with both CX and C7s and they work very very well there as well. Both for my simple pumping flatland cruising and my beginner forays into skatepark. I also have only begun practicing technique for sliding and while I know technique is most important they happen to be the first wheel I successfully executed a decent slide on. So take that for what it’s worth. I also happen to like to feel connected and appreciated by places I spend my money and in a very short period of time and through holiday seasons Jeff has always always answered my emails and questions, and follow ups, with patience and speed. So there’s that too.
