La Paulade FTW SP1 (Freeride) 81mm 76A Longboard Wheels

Hanger compatibility: Shares the FTW's race-derived shape — recommended hanger width 105–115mm, sweet spot around 110mm. Not intended for standard 150mm+ hangers.

The FTW SP1 is La Paulade's high-speed freeride wheel - the pink sibling to the FTW SP2 race wheel. It shares the same 81mm shape, Air Core Technology (ACT), and Dynamic Lip Support (DLS) construction as the race version, but is poured in a 76A SP1 freeride formula instead of the 74A SP2 race compound.

Who is it for
The SP1 formula rolls even faster than the SP2, but trades away the SP2's extreme braking and stopping power for a more forgiving, less flat-spot-prone ride. That makes it uniquely suited to fast, committed stand-up slides and high-speed freeride, rather than all-out racing — riders who want the FTW's roll speed and construction without the demanding, race-only characteristics of the SP2.

What are the specs
81mm diameter, 74mm contact patch, poured in the 76A SP1 formula. Built on the same Air Core Technology and Dynamic Lip Support platform as the FTW SP2, with the same narrow race-hanger geometry (105–115mm, sweet spot ~110mm).

Quality engagement
Like the rest of the FTW line, production is tracked under La Paulade's batch ID system, so any quality issues can be traced back to a specific production run.
