Overview
The Rinkster Ninja Grip Wheels were developed with none other than world champion Itan Chavira to deliver power, control, and confidence at a mid-price point, thanks to a new wider profile design.
This wider footprint creates more contact with the floor, which results in better stability, stronger pushes, and longer-lasting durability than traditional tapered profiles. Paired with the all-new Stealth Formula urethane, the Ninja Grip rolls buttery smooth while absorbing unnecessary vibrations for a ride that feels effortless and truly high-performance, perfect for the power skater who wants a robust wheel that can hold up strong when the game's on the line.

| 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. |

Sizing Chart
| 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. |
