So glad to see Tom’s somewhere good. Santa Cruz never marketed him at all.

In my humble opinion Eniz should get paid to travel all over the world and be able to afford to have 4 Ferraris in his garage. Dude is an elite skateboarder (one of the best in the world IMO) so I just hope he can finally get a board sponsor that pushes him like he deserves.

Im Missing something? Dont remember Eniz on enjoi.

Anyway happy for him, very underrated, pay him a lot of money. So good for him, another good step after getting on nike.

MAybe he should changes his pants to get more recognition in this times and era.

I suppose he was a co-founder with Carter and Hill, he was a rider for the team and contributed to the art and brand for a bit, but it was never really his.  He left and hasn’t really kept in touch with Carter or Hill for years.  So maybe at one point it was his, but Heated Wheel feels like Neil’s vision coming through 100 percent.  Sorta how Gonz has Krooked

Think theyre BBS from checking woodshop list before, but now it seemingly doesnt list Heated Wheel.  Initial runs (and the Polarizers) that are marked made in Mexico were PS Stix.  Someone said the nonshaped/popsicles might be Prime but I only have a shaped deck on the way

Wasnt too familiar with Jake Hill other than that Thrasher Ditch race he placed 2nd in, and found it funny Jake and Tom Remillard were in same heat, and Tom was wearing a Heated Wheel shirt at 2:37

From rewatching the video, Ryan Townley might be a good fit on Heated Wheel too

watch his part in the radio television if you haven’t. he’s got that classic lanky style and is pretty well rounded. i think he’s a sick addition.

It’s listed as The Heated Wheel in alphabetical order with the T. Threw me off first too. PS Stix for polarizers and BBS for others. Hopefully that still holds.

Stoked on Eniz being on. Enjoi was a bit of a weird fit for him IMO and nothing ever happened with that. Eniz is sponsored by my local so I expect to get The Heated Wheel decks at my local quite soon. I was actually looking into getting one and a shirt a while back but it was too difficult with the availability being not so good in Europe.

The decks are widely available in the UK, including Polarizers. Through Nineteen76 distribution, which is owned by Steve Douglas (80s UK pro skater, used to run Dwindle, maybe still does). I did know who was the backing behind The Heated Wheel, but I've forgotten. it's San Diego company not related to skateboarding, involved with clothing I think.

Good to know they’re widely available in the UK. Even though the UK is still definitely in Europe, I do not really consider them as a part of Europe anymore after Brexit. I guess for me Europe = EU these days as I’m don’t really want to pay the +24% VAT and possible customs chargers.

The two shaped boards are 15 and 15.75.  But all the other popsicles are more normal sizes, no?  Seems pretty standard for a Krooked/Antihero type brand to have this kind of variation.  Neil’s also pretty tall so it makes sense theres some bigger board options.  I hope it continues because it differentiates them and fits the brand, at least how I see it.

shaped decks have bbs danger sticker, polarizers are ps stix, and the popsicles just have a dent between the front truck holes. Im not knowledgeable enough to make a solid conclusion on them. if anyone wants measurements on any of them hmu and i will deliver.

What's the go with $lave? Had a bit of momentum after being very quiet for a while, but any steam they had generated from turning Pat Burke pro and Radio Silence has long evaporated. I think Davey Sayles was about to get on, before he bounced for Deathwish instead, Logan Taylor joined after moving from Lovesick, but that doesn't move the needle either way. Jake Hill is neat, but I don't think it makes much of a difference either with him leaving. Team is still sick, but they don't seem to do drops, or just repress old graphics. Seem to exist on the same level like Lovesick, Politic, The Killing Floor, etc

Clutch/ASF uses a letter/number system for their popsicles. Their stamps will say "k7" for an 8.25 k shape for example.

The alignment divot could be from like a dozen places but BBS does them sometimes and if they're already using them for the shapes then I would say it's probably safe to assume it's bareback.

Nothing, and I don't think it's sad, and I don't think you're really sad about it haha, are you buying his boards? I'm pretty sure he just works full time for UPS, and has for a while now. It's not like he's 21 and has his whole skate career ahead of him and is gonna fall into flow purgatory because the garage level board company he skates for decides to finally turn off the lights.

Nothing, and I don't think it's sad, and I don't think you're really sad about it haha, are you buying his boards? I'm pretty sure he just works full time for UPS, and has for a while now. It's not like he's 21 and has his whole skate career ahead of him and is gonna fall into flow purgatory because the garage level board company he skates for decides to finally turn off the lights.
It was an exaggeration. Im not cutting my wrists or anything but I would have loved to see some more footage from him, he has a really dope approach and is very skilled so I feel it's a bummer that we can't see more shit from him.
 I did buy a couple of $lave boards because of the Radio Silence part so I do try to support the dude.

Neil Blender finally having a proper board brand and a team curated by him is one of the most overdue things in skating.

are we really feeling the name tho?

I’m not into it. It having wheel in the name being a board company is fucking me up.

maybe if it was like square wheel skateboards or something like that? Anyway, I don’t get it…

It’s about going fast. Cardiel literally melts one of his wheels bombing a hill in Tent City.

Wish more core legends would start brands, instead of all these dime a dozen board companies with little to no direction that keep popping up and not offering anything new, just existing to saturate the space.

I'm not super hyped on the name, but if it has some historical meaning i don't understand that's cool.

That would actually be sick tho.  Neil with whoever he thinks is interesting produced in a Bunt esque format would be so good

I figured Neil has a heated steering wheel in his car and likes it so much he named his skateboard company after it.

I never post, but for those interested: Neil has the Polarizer and Peter Hewitt model up on the website. Just scooped the standard polarizer. Who knows how long they will be available once and email blast goes out. Just randomly checked the site this morning and they were back in stock.

The 8.5 Flowerguy board (14.5 WB?) is a nice shape, cannot tell if it’s BBS or not but I like it.

The heated wheel is the dopest company out right now for those that don't know. Maybe not as cool as swivel device, but damn my cookies are good.

this is so sick. i am really stoked on the heated wheel & blender having his own brand. my only complaint/negative comment about this would be to skateboard brands still doing brown top plys, find me one person who prefers or even likes looking down at that.

What's the go with $lave? Had a bit of momentum after being very quiet for a while, but any steam they had generated from turning Pat Burke pro and Radio Silence has long evaporated. I think Davey Sayles was about to get on, before he bounced for Deathwish instead, Logan Taylor joined after moving from Lovesick, but that doesn't move the needle either way. Jake Hill is neat, but I don't think it makes much of a difference either with him leaving. Team is still sick, but they don't seem to do drops, or just repress old graphics. Seem to exist on the same level like Lovesick, Politic, The Killing Floor, etc

I think Noah Lora would fit good on grimple.

I think the real question is what would happen to Anthony Schultz??? Dude is criminally underrated but haven't seen much either, which makes me very sad.

Either that or its a (not so) subtle jab. Eniz turning pro for THW is pretty dope, hope the company will stay around. Artwork is pretty interesting and crazy diverse regarding styles and placement on the board. I am digging this company for sure atm.

Lots of $LAVE talk in this thread, will address some of it

Radio-Silence definitely helped people know the brand is still going strong. Davey was in the works, but decided to go to Baker Boys on good terms. Logan just put out a part not that long ago and is killing it. New drops happen often (new drop today), but did have a re-issue series of sorts a bit ago. Board sales have been pretty harsh for the industry as a whole, so not cranking out a ton of new stuff as often. Can't really speak to the size of the brands listed above, but they're all rad.

I think the real question is what would happen to Anthony Schultz??? Dude is criminally underrated but haven't seen much either, which makes me very sad.

Shultz is still skating, but working as well. Definitely has some footage, and the whole team is working on a few small brand projects, and a larger one for mid next year.
