Overview
The Labeda Grit Outdoor Wheels bring Evo Hub technology to the streets, delivering elite-level speed, durability, and control for players who refuse to slow down when the surface gets rough. Built with a harder outdoor-specific urethane, the Grit wheel is designed to handle blacktop, asphalt, and concrete while maintaining the responsiveness and power high-end players expect.
At the center of it all is Labeda's patented EVO Hub system, which positions the bearings side by side to concentrate power directly through the core of the wheel. This creates a more efficient flex and rebound through the entire urethane, resulting in faster acceleration, smoother glide, and more controlled grip. It also eliminates bearing bind, so every stride feels cleaner, faster, and more consistent no matter how hard you're pushing.
This is the first outdoor wheel to feature EVO technology, and the difference is immediate. The Labeda Grit Wheel doesn't just survive outdoor play, it thrives in it. While others are burning through wheels and losing performance, you're still flying with confidence, control, and long-lasting durability.
For compatibility, the Grit Wheels will work on any roller hockey skate, but the EVO Spacers must be used. The EVO Spacers are not included with the wheels and Grit wheels will not work with traditional spacers. You must purchase a separate set of EVO Spacers and we highly recommend purchasing a backup set of EVO Spacers to keep in your bag. Learn even more about the innovative Evo Spacer System here.

| Product Note | DEK tile or similar non-hockey perforated tiles provide less wheel contact surface area. As a result, using wheels on these surfaces has less grip and will wear down quicker. |

| KEY TECHNOLOGIES | |
|---|---|
| EVO Spacer System The innovative design concentrates power through the center of the wheel by placing the bearings side by side, rather than separated by a spacer. The result is more speed and stopping power through increased wheel flex, and better acceleration and glide through freer bearing spin. Learn even more about the innovative Evo Spacer System here. |

| HOCKEY WHEEL HARDNESS GUIDELINES | |
|---|---|
| Roller hockey wheel hardness or durometer should be decided on factors like a player's weight, skill level and playing surface. The higher the durometer rating, the harder the wheel. For example, an 82A wheel is perfect for rough outdoor surfaces while a 76A wheel excels indoors. More advanced players can also benefit from harder wheels since they can utilize the extra rebound and speed. |
