Pig Wheels: Speed, Street Skating, and Pure American Style

Pig Wheels is one of the most historic and recognizable skateboard wheel brands from the American skate scene of the 1990s. The brand was born within the legendary Tum Yeto universe, a historic American distributor behind iconic brands such as Toy Machine, Foundation Skateboards, and Zero Skateboards.

From its earliest years, Pig Wheels immediately stood out thanks to a raw, direct image deeply rooted in the most authentic street skateboarding. The iconic pig graphics quickly became famous in the global skate scene and still perfectly represent hardcore American skateboarding from the ’90s and 2000s.

The brand was founded with a very simple goal: to create fast, durable, and truly high-performance wheels for skaters who ride street spots, gaps, ledges, and handrails every day without compromise. Pig has never sought to build an overly commercial or fashion-oriented image. The entire brand has always been rooted in true American underground skateboarding culture.

Tum Yeto, street skating, and the American skate scene

Behind Pig Wheels is Tum Yeto, one of the most important distributors in the history of modern skateboarding. The Tum Yeto universe has always represented a highly technical, aggressive style of skateboarding deeply rooted in the American street scene.

In the 1990s, technical skateboarding was exploding, and Pig Wheels quickly carved out a significant niche for itself thanks to high-performance urethane formulas and shapes perfectly suited for modern street skating.

Pig wheels became famous for high speeds, smooth slides, excellent resistance to flatspots, and very precise control during flip tricks and technical lines. The brand develops wheels designed primarily for street skating but also perfect for parks, gaps, and all-around skateboarding.

Pig Wheels perfectly embodies the Tum Yeto attitude: hard, real skateboarding built by skaters for skaters.

The Pig Wheels team and aggressive skateboarding

Over the years, Pig Wheels has supported countless riders connected to the Tum Yeto scene and the most powerful, technical American skateboarding.

The brand’s team has always consisted of skaters known for aggressive lines, massive gaps, heavy handrails, and very fast, fearless skateboarding. The brand’s video parts consistently convey that raw street vibe typical of the American skate scene from the ’90s to the early 2000s.

Pig Wheels has always remained very true to the original skateboarding culture without chasing the trends of the moment too much. And it is precisely this authenticity that has allowed the brand to remain so respected in the international skate scene even today.

Pig Wheels Formula, Performance, and Style

Today, Pig Wheels continues to produce top-quality skateboard wheels available in a wide variety of sizes and hardnesses.

Pig’s modern formulas still maintain that fast, aggressive feel that made the brand famous in the ’90s. The brand’s wheels are especially appreciated for: high speeds, excellent slide control, high resistance to flatspots, and great stability during technical skateboarding and aggressive sessions.

Aesthetically, Pig Wheels also maintains a highly recognizable style featuring ironic graphics, bold colors, and designs deeply rooted in American underground skate culture.
