Great listen!

[@LoadedBoards]

Yoooo thanks guys! Means a lot coming from the best longboard podcast out there!

[@BurningSpiderStokeCompany]

With every story, I learn things, and get even more stoked on you dudes, and just can't state it enough, how much you dudes absolutely kill it. Stoked to have you in the shop, and helping us grow our community as well.

[@Dubleduhtch]

Loved this. As someone who has made the effort to hold weekly meetups for my community (rollerblading) and having been on ROLLERBLADE the last two years as a product of that effort I love seeing that Loaded also rewards people who want to build their community. It’s so vital.

You guys mentioned mental health, thats what this activity brought to me, thanks for developing all those great products and l'm hoping to hear more stories in the next sessions!!

[@Vagaboarder]

This is Another masterpiece. Thank you guys so much to share your story and “behind the scenes” of Orangatang. I'm happy to still find someone enthusiastic about this world and with an eye to the future.

Great episode, really enjoyed the history and stories behind the beloved Otang wheels! Is there any particular reason the Morongas got discontinued? They’re great

[@LoadedBoards]

The Morongas were the only wheel in our lineup that used a different urethane. We looked at the numbers and popularity of the Moronga compared to our other wheels and compared it against how much it was costing us to maintain and acquire that particular formula for this one wheel. In the end, it all didn't add up and we had to let the Moronga go. As an added bonus, the Moronga urethane formula needed to be refrigerated, while our main formula Happy Thane, did not.

I still ride my otang purps in heats on my surfskate. From 2012 .they have held up great. And im 300 pounds. I really want to try some of the 105 dad bods they look awesome.

[@bretsticks3306]

oh geez i love skateboarding

[@Zachsnotboard]

Did Orangatang make the wheels for the boosted board ? They had holes on the inside of the wheel.

[@LoadedBoards]

We were involved in the first two generations of Boosted Boards. First Generation used the In Heats and they had to drill into each wheel to attach the pulleys. We developed the Kegel with that particular core to help them cut down on assembly time for their boards.

@@LoadedBoards you might be interested to see what mad wheel company is doing, they brought back the boosted 105s. Crazy wheel with more grip than a magnum but super slow roll speed
