Blank Wheel Co Checks At Flatspot Longboard Shop

Blank Wheel Co., in collaboration with Slide Perfect Wheels, are offering up Blank “Checks” and the thane bank is paying out huge! That’s right friends, if you’re a fan of dumpers, the Blank Checks are going to be some of your new favorites. Sector 9 is basically gone, Abec 11 is having a bit of a stab at a comeback after a hiatus, but Blank Wheel Co. has your back and is keeping thaners alive and well. Even better, this is a skater owned, and run operation, so supporting Blank Wheel Co. goes right back to supporting skaters trying to bring you the good goods. If you loved the Slates, you’ll also love Checks. If you haven’t tried either, what are you waiting for!

The Blank Wheel Co Slates are grippy out of the package with an aggressive factory skin, large supportive core, and big lips. A more DH oriented wheel Slates would shred their factory finish for a consistent, reliable and incredibly fun sliding wheel. The Checks offer similar in-pavement fun to paint the road, but come with a smaller, yet still supportive core, round lips and a stone ground finish. Checks features make them an incredible all around freeride wheel that still provide ample, reliable breaking power when you want it.

From Blank Wheel Co: A formula highly based on the well tested and enjoyed Slate thane it was given a round shape and stoneground skin, plus an additional 2A durometer step up, which intern gifted us a more friendly and less intimidating wheel. Checks put to the road have proven quite controllable, with some slide resistance. They leave thane lines on most pavement and are mostly described as “in the pave”.
