Ha..the narrative has changed a lot over the past couple years. At first everyone was skeptical with a lot of 'haters', but after over a thousand verified purchase reviews on Amazon and word of mouth spread about performance and publishing scientific results, it is highly positive in skateboarding now. Once we published deals with the US Military, NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, PGA Tour, the Olympics, Samsonite, Harley Davidson and multiple Fortune 50 companies, people have come around!

The longboard with the shark wheels vs skateboard display is pretty biased towards the longboard. A more accurate test/display would be to use the same board with wheels of the same durometer and size. Board size and wheel size/durometer have a huge impact on board control while going over rough surfaces

True. Since this video, Shark Wheel has had years of scientific testing performed at Universities (San Diego State University, Mechanical Engineering Dept and others), labs and real world testing. The Shark Wheel has advantages in most categories.

Nice video. However, in order to perform a true test, one would need to compare it with a traditional wheel that also has grooves. Afterall, the "tread" is different between the two wheels. I grooved regular wheel may function as well and may not be proprietary so would be cheap to make.
@SharkWheelZack
@SharkWheelZack 4 жыл бұрын
A grooved regular wheel can catch debris, wheres a sine wave grooved wheel does not. The Shark Wheel has been scientifically proven (San Diego Stat University, Mechanical Engineering Departmetn) to outperform the traditional wheel in nearly every major category. Multiple Fortune 500 companies now use the Shark Wheel in other applications.

So, the three flaps on the side of each wheel have a function? Wouldn't just a set of sine grooves result in the same handling?
@SharkWheelZack
@SharkWheelZack 4 жыл бұрын
They are 3 sine waves conjoined. There are no flaps at all. And to answer your question specifically, no it would not have the same result. The sine wave tends to push small objects left and right as they roll smoothing the ride. A circular wheel with sine wave grooves would not have a side wall to push the small objects on the sides of the wheel or to reduce the shock to the ride. People driving their car intuitively know to drive over a speed bump or a dip in the road at an angle to reduce the shock. The Shark Wheel is always striking at an angle to reduce shock. Having all parts of the wheel in sine wave form has many benefits.

Yes. It was the first product Shark Wheel ever built actually. That's when we found out the Shark Wheel shape is not ideal for anything that leans/tilts (bicycle, motorcycle, 2 wheel scooter, and rollerblades). If you email me at zack@sharkwheel.com, I'm happy to send you the Shark Wheel bike video, it's a quick video that is pretty cool.

@@winrid Hi, you can see all details and scientific testing at wefunder.com/sharkwheel. (1) In pallet jack/forklift wheels (material handling industry, Shark Wheels last 50% longer because they dissipate heat in a sine wave footprint (the most efficient shape) (2) In casters, Shark Wheels have 57% less friction when in motion making it much easier to push carts, wheelchairs, and other applications that use casters (3) The ability to go over rough terrain is the #1 advantage. The 30 degree approach angle of the Shark Wheel strikes obstacles at an angle and tends to push them left and right out of the way. A traditional wheel acts like a steamroller and tries to go over objects, while Shark Wheels tend to move around them. The angle also reduces shock significantly (think of going over a speed bump in a car an angle to reduce the shock) (4) In farming, Shark Wheels are the only wheels that don't continue to go over the same path. So, they significantly minimize trench digging, which costs farmers a lot of money and time to repair. Trenches also lead to the failure of other equipment (gear boxes, drivetrains, etc.). In the most recent test (funded by the US Government), Shark Wheels dug a 1'' trench, while the industry leading wheel dug a 14'' trench. There are many more advantages, but those are a few that have been scientifically proven by San Diego State University, Mechanical Engineering Department in 2 years of tests, as well as lab testing and other real world tests. There is a reason Fortune 500 companies, Samsonite, Harley Davidson, NBA, NFL, PGA Tour, MLB, NHL, Olympics and the US Military use products with Shark Wheels.
