ABOUT THE 97A DRAGON FORMULA:
97A Dragons™ are designed to roll over rough terrain while maintaining the grip and slide of traditional 99A and 101A wheels. Their optimized 97A hardness gives you a smoother ride on more surfaces without giving up the responsiveness and control needed for technical tricks - letting you push your skating further anywhere you go.
Speed: DF-97A's feature up to 20% higher rebound than standard hard wheels, giving you noticeably more speed in parks, bowls, and rough streets– places where regular 93A wheels slow you down.
Grip and Slide: Designed for real-world terrain, Dragons™ grip when you need control and slide when you want flow– thanks to a one-of-a-kind formula developed over 10 years. No shortcuts. No compromises.
Durability: Made from premium materials, Dragon Formula™ wheels are built to last. They stay fast, smooth, and consistent– delivering real value over cheap wheels that wear out quickly.
ABOUT NANO RATS:
Nano Rats™ put both sides of the wheel to work, making skating easier and more fun. It has the outer edge you are used to, a lock-on inner edge, and center set bearings to give you a wheel that will upgrade your ride without changing the balance of your set up. Halfway between Nano Cubics and traditional symmetrical wheels, Nano Rats™ provide an easy way to make the Dragon Formula™ work even better for you.
ABOUT THE AV4 NANO RAT SHAPE:
- Radial climb design face
- Asymmetrical design allows each side to do its job
- "Lock-in" inner face
- Center set bearing
- Medium ride patch

About Dragon Formula
Dragon Formula™ is Powell Peralta's latest next generation polyurethane breakthrough. Dragons are mid hardness 88A, 93A and 97A wheels that smooth out rough terrain. Now you can roll over previously unskateable terrain on your way to a skate spot, and then skate it as well or better than before with the same wheels. This is because dragons slide like 99A & 101A wheels and still grip when needed. This makes dragons very special and unique.
Dragon Formula has taken us a decade of development to perfect. they have amazing speed, a smooth ride, unequalled grip to slide ratio, vibration damping, and extra-long life. this formula is groundbreaking and will make skating more fun and expand the skate terrain available to dragon riders.
To expand the fun and performance of this revolutionary new formula, we offer Dragons in both traditional symmetrical shapes and two new asymmetrical shapes, Nano-Cubics™ and Nano-Rats™.
