Labeda

The Mark Series

Labeda has been manufacturing performance skate wheels since 1969. The Mark series and Five Milers were the standard before anyone ever knew about making urethane wheels. History was made when the Mark series switched over to urethane. The Featherweights then took the design envelope even farther making them the lightest wheel to roll on floors.

The Proline

Not satisfied with just having the most innovative wheels on the market, the Proline was created. This plate was so far ahead of its time, it¹s design is still being copied to this day.

We have seen brands come and go, but Labeda continues to lead the way. To this day, we here at Labeda are still keeping to the same philosophy of making all of our wheels in the USA. When it comes to performance, innovation and tradition, there is only one choice.

46 YEARS OF INDUSTRY LEADING TECHNOLOGY

Our founder, Robert Labeda, was tired of his son’s wooden quad wheels breaking mid race so he set out to create a better wheel, Labeda Wheels, which are made out of urethane.  We were the first company to introduce urethane wheels in the United States.  As technologies improved, we combined forces with BF Goodrich.  This joint effort created the first urethane blended core (ESTALOC) to create a chemical bond with outer urethane to prevent delamination.  This was just one of our many firsts.  We created the first clear urethane wheel, the first aluminum core, and the first urethane core.  We also were the first company to bring FLEX TECHNOLOGY into the design of the wheel.  All of these firsts have enabled Labeda to stay on top of the game.  We created the standard in which the industry follows today.  Superior engineering, extensive research and development with the best service in the industry enables us to have the most serious commitment to retailers, skate manufacturers, skates, and competitors alike.  It comes as no surprise that this passion continues today.
