About Dragon Formula: The amazing new Dragon Formula™ (DF) Urethane used to create these wheels is another industry leading innovation from Powell • Peralta. DF-93A Dragons will not only roll over rough terrain, but also grip and slide like 99A and 101A wheels do, so that you can do all your normal tricks and more on the greater range of skate terrains made skateable by its softer 93A hardness.
Speed: Dragons are very fast because DF-93A is super high rebound, an industry leading 18-20% higher than hard wheels. This higher rebound means you won’t lose speed in bowls or parks the way you would with an ordinary 93A wheel, and you will roll much smoother and faster on rough streets and sidewalks…even in places you used to have to walk your board.
Grip & Slide: Dragons slide on both rough and smooth terrains, and also grip when you need it. This is because Dragon Formula is not just an ordinary mid-90’s wheel formula. It has been developed over a ten year period to optimize and fine tune it to perfection. No other wheel can do what these Dragons can.
Durability: Dragon Formula is not only smooth, fast and slidable, it is also durable. The slidability comes from its unique blend of high performance materials by making the urethane weak so it will slide as the urethane wears away, not creating flats spots. Dragons are very long lasting so they are not only better skating, they are a great value too.

- Best of both worlds Review by T
These wheels are the perfect balance. Soft enough to give a smooth ride, but still hard enough to slide. By far the best wheel I’ve ever rode. Haven’t touched them to the ramp yet but in the streets these wheels are insane!!! Scooped the 56. Grabbing the 54s whenever they restock. Get them while you can...if you can! (Posted on 9/14/2022)Rating - The best all-around skateboard wheel on the market. Review by Dane
The Dragon Formula is the most versatile, well-balanced skateboard wheel I have ever skated. They function well on all types of rolling surfaces. The slide is predictable, they grip where needed, roll smoth in the course and the crust, yet aren't sluggish on smoother surfaces, like the park.Rating
Dragon Formulas may not become your favorite wheel, but you will be glad to have them in your quiver, regardless of your age or skill level. They truly are a game changer. (Posted on 9/12/2022)- Great! Review by Bee
Going from a 78a on asphalt was rough at first but within a few days they have become awesome to ride!! (Posted on 9/11/2022)Rating - Finally, a true hybrid wheel for skateboarding. Review by Dane
IMHO, Dragon Formulas are a must-have for any skater's quiver, regardless of skating style. Sure, there are already a handful of "cruiser" or "filmer," high-80a/low-90a wheel formulas out there, but Dragon Formulas are the first wheel I have skated that really nail that trifecta and the result is the most perfectly balanced hybrid wheel on the market. So if you've just started skating and you don't know what you like yet, or if you're an advanced skater going to a new spot or park at and you don't know what the rolling surface will be like- also for simply getting there- these wheels are it. Simply put, they can do a little bit of everything pretty dang well.Rating
They may not be your favorite set of wheels, but you will be greatful to have a set to fall back on regardless. (Posted on 9/11/2022)- Dragon with matches Review by Jeffree
These wheels are really special. All that is claimed is true. Great for rough streets. Makes my old knees last longer at the park. Noticed a difference in the first few sessions! Keep up the innovations George. (Posted on 9/6/2022)Rating - I'll never be able to get those wheels Review by Ariel Sucks
I live in Brazil and It's almost impossible to be able to buy or to even ride those wheels, I can't even wait to the day, maybe some years from now that I'll be able to ride those wheels, probably some second hand one's from somebody. Really wish I was able to ride them but for now It's impossible, thanks for making them Powell I really admire your brand and I have a G-bones (wheels) Skeleton tattoed on my leg, It's the only wheel I ride since 2014 because they are huge and make it possible to skate through the years with them, the last pair my friend passed to me was in 2018 and I still ride 'em even they are 52mm right now, keep on progressing Powell (Posted on 9/5/2022)Rating - Dragons Review by Kris
Put the 54s on my 8.25 and I’m loving em!Rating
Quiet at the park and smooth in the parking lot…

Try em out!! (Posted on 9/5/2022)- Dragons rule Review by Heath Coontz
Call me crazy but I think they’re fast and they roll over anything. My new favorites! (Posted on 9/4/2022)Rating - The hype is real Review by Joseph
The best of both worlds. They skate fast on smooth surfaces, and smooth in rough surfaces. They have ample gripping power, but also slide easily. My current favorite wheel. (Posted on 9/2/2022)Rating - So Good! Review by Phil
Other reviews have pretty much covered it. Deserves nothing less than five stars! These are so good! (Posted on 9/1/2022)Rating
