- Introducing the Orangatang Caguama: voluptuous urethane (proportionate in all the right places) for high speed with grip, comfort, and momentum.
Available now in select shops and at loadedboards.c...
Fast, Comfortable, & Functional - At 85mm tall, the Caguama provides maximum roll speed for commuting, carving, long-distance pushing, pumping, and electric longboards. The 56mm contact patch with its surface skin provides confident grip, while the subtly rounded edges help the wheels pass smoothly across pavement cracks. Also features a 3-dimensionally faceted outer wheel face.
Large, Supportive Core - A fully exposed 46mm core with a deep “valley”-shaped cross section (same as in the Kegel) reduces weight while providing good acceleration and lots of momentum. This core is compatible with any electric skateboard that can accommodate Orangatang Kegels, allowing for an even faster and smoother ride.
Happy Thane Formula - The Caguama is poured in our proprietary Happy Thane formula for high roll speed, excellent traction, and smooth, predictable slides.
Hatching the Caguama took many years of testing and fine tuning. You’d think we’d be quicker at it by now, but as they say: the devil is in the details.
Diameter: 85mm
Width: 58.5mm
Contact Patch: 56mm
Durometer: 80a, 83a
Bearing Seat: Offset
Formula: Happy Thane
Core: high-strength, high-stiffness, heat-resistant urethane
I am a 39 year old man, my body is broken from years of snowboarding and skating. But these wheels are like riding on a Cadillac. They are fast and there is no need for an electric skateboard when the wheels just do all the work. I almost killed myself testing them out on a country down hill road. Highly recommend them
Loaded is undoubtedly (idk how can i spell that) the best in everything. thx for existing
KYLE CHIN IS BACK!
Daniel Song where did he go??
I knew y’all will be back! This year feels like a big long boarding year
We hope so too!
Would these wheels fit on a Landyachtz drop carve 38” longboard? Would I need different trucks, and what would be the maximum wheel size?
literally the best wheel I have tried, got them today, my board just keeps on rolling, really make a difference
Thanks for the love! We're super hyped on the Caguama and put it on anything we can!
Loaded Boards hey! Can it slide?
@@lgooch At first, the slides will be choppy and a little rough. With the skin still on the wheel, the wheel wants to grip as much as possible. Once you've broken in the surface to be evenly rough, it slides pretty decently, but not as good as the Kegels (80mm) or especially the In Heats (75mm) once the skin is broken in.
Loaded Boards thx
Just a question, I want to get new wheels to just cruise as I don’t do tricks or free dance. The thing is Idk if I should get 80A or 83A wheels. I use an longboard, not an electric one.
Amir Yolo either one will probably be fine. if you weigh more than 160 lbs the 83a will be the better option, i weigh 140 and i got their 4president 70mm 80a wheels and i love them
Just a got a set of purple ones. Wow...best wheels that I have ever ridden
The way to present this was so entertaining that all watch it all the way even though I might not be able to get me one in the near future (I live outside the US)
Thanks Carlos!
We always try and make these videos entertaining, since most of the time, product description videos can be boring haha!
If you're in Europe you can get them at sickboardshop
Thanks for adding the purple loophole. A lot of no-grade pushing here in Florida.
Question about the setups: will icarus deck and caguama wheels work with 150mm or 165mm paris v3 or savant?
Hi guys!
Because I skate sometimes on a steely with a groove pattern, I'm thinking about mounting an Icarus with Caguamas, instead of the kegel ones. Also, I'm thinking of mounting the blue caguamas (77a) instead of the orange ones, will the 85mm and 77a combination be too much instead of the 80mm 82a of the standard icarus configuration? What about changing only one variable, the diameter or the hardness, but not both? Thank you very much!
What up Loaded, I just wanted to say that I think it'd be pretty sweet if you guys consider adding an option to to buy a deck that already has pushin cushion
Yeah because their grip tape looks really cool, wouldn't want to change it, well until it needs it
These things are siiiick. Got the light blue 77a option and it's like riding on a cloud. Some tailwind on flat ground keeps you rolling like you're a sailboat or something, not even kidding. Kind of wish I'd have gotten the 80a or 83a, but once these are worn out I'll experiment. Thanks otang!
Why wish more A
@@xX_Qu1ckSc0peZzHD_Xx Roll speed. I do alot of long distance pushing and any little bit of extra roll speed helps a ton.
I have the 80a Orange and they roll forever. SMOOTH AS HECK on flat surfaces especially around city centers and malls. These babies are fast and don't require much effort but they will suffer on more uneven paths. Great wheels for a beginner like myself.
These look sick - ordered today! I love the Kegels on my Bhangra, but I just ordered a Vanguard and I think I'm gonna try these with that setup. BTW, I'm 54 and skate about 3-4 times a week, I've tried a few other longboards, but Loaded seems to be the brand that delivers for the riding I like to do.
Thats awesome Timothy! The Vanguard is one of the most fulfilling boards to pair with the Caguamas!
We appreciate the love! Be sure to tag @LoadedBoards and @OrangatangWheels on Facebook and Instagram if you get the chance to share some of your skating soon!
Keep up the stoke and skate safe!
I own the Loaded Icarus, I liked the Fattail with 85 wheels, but I would like to know how it is carving with it,, I am a great passionate about carving, by the city, by parks, indoors, in dreams, the icarus is amazing. What about the Fattail, could help me with this doubt?
Thank you for making my happiness, hugs from Brazil!
The Fattail differs greatly in flex compared to the Icarus. Since the Fattail is top-mount, you have tons of leverage to get as much tuning out of your trucks as possible.
We like riding the Fattail Flex 2 or 3 with Paris 150mm Trucks and the Orange Orangatang Caguamas. Thanks to the top mounting and deep wheel cut outs, there is 0.01% of wheelbite with this setup! We even use the stock bushings on the Paris Trucks and have no problems at all!
With the Fattail, you get an incredibly powerful flex pattern that springs you back hard and fast. When equipped with narrow trucks (e.g. 150mm Paris) you get maximum responsiveness and even more grip!
To dial in the flex, you also have two wheelbase options for your back truck! Shorter wheelbase gives tighter turning and a stronger flex, longer wheelbase give wider turning with softer flex!

Thank so very much Loaded
Did you have issues getting the back sprocket on enough so you could put the rear nut on? There’s very little room enough for the back nut to screw on all the way, even though it looks like I have the drive sprocket on all the way?? Any suggestions? Please help! Thank you!! Lou
We haven't ever really had an issue with that. Of course, it depends on the trucks you have. Most longboard wheels (and all of ours) use standard skate bearings with an 8mm space in between, which most longboard truck companies design their axle length around. If you feel like you don't have enough threading on your truck for your axle nut to lock on properly, make sure you don't have too many washers on your hangar (the little metal rings).
Do you know what trucks you are using? And do you know what bearings you are using as well?
Bought for my boost. Can't wait!!
You will not be disappointed! We've been riding them on our shared Boosted V2 and can't get enough of them!
LoadedNewsletter Any idea how much faster the top speed is with 85mm?
You should get 1 mph :D
Stick to your longboard and get some exercise. I hate electric boards because people don't know what the hell they are doing on them and constantly are crashing into people in the city. You should need a license the ride one of those
I just found these online for $130, but I just bought them out of a zumiez for $67. a little confused about that price difference
Hey Jace! Can you send us the link for the $130 online versions? That might be for a bundle, as in two sets of wheels being purchased at once.
I have these wheels now and have ordered a Vanguard Flex 1. Also ordered some Paris V2 180s. I have a 1/8 riser..wil i need this or can i just bolt them straight to the deck and get good wheel clearance.
You should be just fine with your current setup! We've tested the Caguamas on the Vanguard a bunch and have never had any issues of wheelbite!
Curious in seeing how it holds its shape to overtime wears with those geometric indentations 🤔 I know it’s made for grip & speed. But when doing predrifts & what not.
You are correct, these wheels are designed for speed and grip, but also comfort!
During the prototyping phase, we decided to focus more on these aspects than try and have another wheel that does what the Kegel already does so well. It's going to take a very long time to wear through the urethane until you start seeing the faceted pattern start to make contact with the pavement.
Our recommendation is, if you want to kick out big pre drift slides, stick with the Orangatang Kegels, because thats what they were designed for an perform best at!
I'm curious why you recommend the purple ones for long distance pushing. Is it due to the greater amount of energy that the softer urethane absorbs?
Great question, Ju-hyeok! That recommendation was intended to highlight one possible application for the firmer of the two duros. 83a is a great choice for long-distance push races, in particular, which are generally held on sanctioned courses with relatively smooth pavement throughout. In these settings a slightly firmer urethane will generally roll faster. For truly LONG-distance applications (such as pushing your skateboard across hundreds or even thousands of miles of unpredictable and often poor-quality pavement, the softer 80a option will most definitely be optimal. :) Hope that clears things up a bit! -K
Hi there, are you guys going to release more of the blue caguama?
We're currently reading through the feedback on the wheels right now! We are hoping to see some more Blues before Christmas time!
Do you really feel the difference between the Kegels and the Caguama? Kegels is great downhill but breaks the sweat with LDP.
Adler Rene Yes you do! The Kegel will accelerate quicker when you start pushing or pumping, but the Caguama really hits a higher speed because of the larger diameter and momentum from it's more robust nature.
I am sold -- Caguama it is!! Keep coming with those awesome videos guys..well done!!! Big fan of you Ethan!
Love them.
Quick question tho, how will you speed control an Icarus with these? On the Icarus the Kegel are a blast but stopping on a narrow road is pretty much foot break or bail out.
Honestly, it's going to be a similar experience. Since these wheels have an even larger diameter, they have more weight and momentum to them, so they REALLY hold their speed.
Footbraking is always the safest option for slowing down! Second would be bailing out into soft grass or a mattress if you are lucky!
Sweet! Can't wait to get them.
You guys should make a video on how to stop with big wheels :P
Love my 85mm Speed Vents. I might try these....
The Speed Vents are awesome wheels too! But we wanted something with a softer roll feel, so we had to try our hand at something larger than the Kegel!
Hey @loaded I'm wondering if I run a set of 180mm bear 852 trucks with these on my flex 2 loaded tien tien am I going to suffer wheelbite ?
You should be alright with most longboard wheels. Bear Trucks tend to push your wheelbase outwards slightly, helping to reduce wheelbite. If you tried using wheels larger than 75mm with really loose bushing, you might find yourself flirting with wheelbite more often than you would like. Keep it at 70mm and you'll be alright!
I run some caguamas on my tan tien with 180mm trucks and I’ve had zero issues with wheel bite. It’s a great setup if you want something you can push on bumpy roads/sidewalks but also take down hills, and generally do a bit of everything. For cruising, the large wheels with the flex is like riding on a cloud
Hey i'm from Brazil and i wanna know How do i start longnoarding without feeling Shame cause im not so good
Hey Giovanni!
Don't feel ashamed! We all start at the same level of riding, but with enough patience and practice, you can develop your skills quickly and feel more confident on your board!
We find that it helps to have someone teaching you how to do basic and advanced maneuvers, since learning things alone can make the process so much more difficult!
Over the years, we've compiled TONS of How To/Trick Tips to help riders like yourself progress your skills quickly and safely!

Thank's a lot!!! I only saw now the comment i'm Sorry for that, but i have seen these videos and build that confidence and have a realy good time longboarding along those years!!!
Once again thank you for the pattience in the comment i'm sure that other find that useful, i might even come back to longboarding🤘🤘
BTW，by calculating if u install these wheels on bbv2 your highest speed is gonna be 23.375mph u r gonna satisfy some torque for the higher speed
Hi, will they fit a Dervish Sama, Paris trucks 180 50 with Purple Nipples. Loving you guys, I'm in the UK and wanted a board from the home of surf, boards and wheels. Not to mention very cool vids and great advise. (of course at 53 starting skating again last week after a gap of 35 years, if I fall and break my neck I'll sue for making it look so appealing!, only kidding I hope.)
yes they will fit! It's a close fit though, but with Orangatang Nipples it should work fine! Worst case scenario, you might need a cup washer to make sure wheelbite isn't an issue, mainly depends on how loose you like your trucks overall. Happy shredding and skate safe!
Hello guys. Do you think I could cnc those wheels to fit on my inboard m1? I don't find any bigger size for those hub motors. Please let me know. Thanks.
Wheels look amazing but would have loved if youse made them wider even the kegels have the same contact patch as the in heats
Thanks! We worked hard on making them look different than anything else out there!
Why exactly would you like to see a wider contact patch? We tried a couple prototypes of wider versions, but felt there was too much urethane at that size to accommodate a wider contact patch.
We're very interested to know you thoughts and reasons since we are always developing new wheels for your skating pleasure!
Thanks for replying I was looking for it to be wider for that extra grip for those wanting to use it on an electric skateboard with no real intent on sliding and the proportion of height to width can effect how good the wheel looks from above
Can't wait to get these for my boosted board.
They make for such a simple and easy upgrade to your ride! Let us know how they feel when you grab a set!
I just purchased an Icarus and use 165mm Savants, how do you think the wheel bite would be with these? I own 4Presidents and In Heats already. Just curious about potential wheel bite on my drop through with 165mm trucks! I mean all this within the parameters of hard carving aha. Thanks for the awesome products and for the response, Im loving all the money invested in my deck!
That sounds like such a rippin' setup already!
Well, in all honesty, it is probably safest to stick with your current wheels of 70mm or 75mm. You can run 80mm wheels, but there is a chance for wheelbite with such narrow trucks. The main issue, it that with narrow trucks, it pulls the inner lip of the wheel closer to the center of the board, where the flares begin mellowing out so there is more bamboo and board material sitting closer to the truck. With 180mm trucks, you'll be fine on 80mm and 85mm wheels because it pushes the inner lip of the wheel away from the center of the board and towards the deepest part of the wheel flares.
The Icarus is designed to carve and flow with you in the streets. You can probably fit 80mm or 85mm wheels on it with your 165mm trucks, but you'll be sacrificing the ability to turn and carve deep. We say stick with what you got and get wiggling!
Add spacers
Mandem para o Brazil essas whells.
Ando de street sled speed.
how do you put the back wheels on? I never replaced my wheels yet on my boosted board v2 but they have something in the back wheels that other wheels dont have :(
You will need a skate tool, a 3mm Hexagonal allen key, and a flat head screw driver.
First take off the axle nut on the truck, then use the 3mm hex tool to remove the two screws locking down the motor cap.
Once you remove the motor cap, you reveal the 4 motor screws and the motor gear. Loosen (but do not remove) the 4 motor screws with your 3mm hex tool. Then slide the motor towards the tail of the board to release tension on the belt.
When belt tension is released, you will be able to slide the wheel off the of the axle.
Using the flat head screw driver as a wedge, you can insert it in between the gap of the wheel and the black gear. Slowly pry the gear away from the wheel while spinning the wheel in a circular motion so you can apply pressure on all side of the gear. Eventually, you will remove the gear and be ready to place it into your new wheel.
Fit the gear into the core of the Caguama (uses the same core, so everything lines up) then press down until it feels snug. If you can pick the wheel up off the ground from the gear, then it should be good.
Next place the belt back on the motor gear, slide the wheel and gear into place. You might need to spin the wheel to get the belt to wrap around the gear fully. Once you have the belt around the gear, screw the axle nut back on to the hangar and use your skate tool to tighten it down.
Tightening down the axel nut, with the wheel gear and belt properly in place, will act as a press that will lock the gear snuggly and firmly into the core fo the Caguama. Tighten it all the way down until the axle nut stops, then reverse the axel nut about 1/4 turn in to loosen a little bit of the pressure to avoid choking the bearing.
Be sure to tighten the 4 motor screws AFTER you set the motor back into the original position by pushing it AWAY from the tail of the board. This makes sure your belts have tension again and won't slip when you accelerate. Once they have some tension, tightening the screws will lock the motor into place.
Put the Motor Cap back in place, tighten the two motor cap locking screws to make sure it is secure.
Power up your board and make sure everything is working properly. You should be good to ride!
Use a Flat head screw driver to pry apart the gear from the wheel
Here is a video demonstration on how to make the swap!
th-cam.com/video/bza00jAL-a4/w-d-xo.html
So far I have to tighten my trucks to a uncomfortable level to avoid getting wheelbite after putting these on my drop through deck, what loaded deck would you guys most recommend me putting these wheels on.
I hope you have discovered risers by now 👍
@@garretteverett2613 Risers on a drop through would only lower the board…
Got mine and figured out how to put them on.. worth it
Nice! Glad you were able to figure out how to put them on yourself! We are about to post a tutorial video on swapping!
will i get weelbight if I putt these wheals on my regular sktboard
Ben Carpenter if your board is still using street trucks, then most likely, yes. Either try out some riser pads, tightening your trucks, or getting taller trucks like 150mm Paris Trucks.
I have the orange and i didnt like them on my loaded poke, it is with surfskates trucks. The seismic alpha 80mm are better on it. Now i try them on my loaded fattail. They keep rolling.
I should probably get these for the bb stealth - they will work, correct?
We have not gotten to try the new BB Stealth model, or any of the newer Boosted models with these wheels. But since the Caguama uses the same core as the Orangatang Kegels, as long as the gear/belt drive is the same as the BB V2, then they should work!
Here is Boosted's compatibility chart to help out: support.boostedboards.com/hc/en-us/articles/360003425394-Accessory-Compatibility-Chart
If you find out they work, please let us know! We've been dying to find out! They work so well on the V2 version!
LoadedNewsletter sounds good, I’ll let ya know!
I’m actually going to buy my deck and everything this weekend, but i don’t know if i’m gonna go with 85mm or 80mm for my icarus... They both seem to be great, but that diamond center maaan lol
Guys, are you serious?) They get into trouble with only 2 of your models)
And the question is, can you write in support of what to start a long discussion of the suitable deck for me? I've been riding for 3 years, I know exactly what I need. But I can not decide.
We know this is a very LARGE wheel, but our inner carvers and long distance pushers felt the NEED for something even bigger than the 80mm Kegels!
What kind of decks do you have on your mind? Maybe we can help narrow it down for you!
It will be very long reasoning) (I apologize for Google translator, I am from russia).
I skate in style: a lot of dancing, a little freestyle, I often use pamping and love the manual) My weight is 75 kg.
The second of my deck was Tan Tien (flex 1), it had excellent tails, it was perfectly dumb (power screw), pumping on flex was not convenient due to flex 1. But there was not enough space for the dance. After that, I fell in love with these decks. I was impressed by their design, softness, very energetic flex and the ability to put larger wheels.
So I traded it for a dervish (flex 2). I have dervish so far, it's perfect for dancing, it's very long, it's cool. But, the pumple on it is obtained only at high speed and only at the expense of flex. But he has very small tails. It is long and heavy, and such short tails are not enough to ride comfortably on the manual. In addition, I formed 4 cracks in the hole for the tracks. (photo under the link photos.app.goo.gl/FxMP9kNwr2M3C55TA ).
I pasted them with a syringe and epoxy glue, but it burst out loud :( And again these large cracks are visible. (The deck does not withstand the load on longitudinal twisting).
For a long time the deck will not last, and sometimes clicks are heard.
I'm thinking about buying a new deck. Maybe I should try Icarus?
His dance is a bit larger than on the dance floor, but much less than on the dervish, but the tails are small (perhaps they will be enough for its small length and weight).
But my friend has changed the warranty is already 4 decks Ikarus, because of the same cracks in the hole for the tracks. (the deck is correctly matched for its weight).
I'm afraid that I may have the same thing, but the store may refuse to replace me under warranty. (X3M Bordshop Or Trajectory, I'm going to buy a deck in one of these stores, are they your official dealers?)
Or again try tan tien, since the difference with the Icarus is small, and the ones are much larger. Or I will later regret that Ikarus has not tried ...)
Does Caguama works with Loaded Icarus? I have prepared my Icarus and the wheels are leaning on the shape. =/
They can, but you might have to do some bushing magic to avoid getting wheelbite, depending on the trucks you choose. Paris trucks work really well and only require the use of two barrel bushings like Orangatang Nipples!
loadedboards.com/114-27.html
That's the one I'll get for my DIY Esk8. Can't wait!
AWESOME CHOICE!
Would this work on a normal skateboard with Indys as long as I use risers
I have the 77a on my Evolve Stoke 2 and it is sketchy on uneven pavement near the curb.
Are you able to pop out the pulleys on the boosted board 80mm and put them in these wheels???
Why yes you can! We even did a tutorial on how to do it!

What board was that when he said long distance pushing in the beginning?
Will they work for drop cat landyachtz?
I can finally show them to my friends
Show them everything the Caguama's have to offer!
LoadedNewsletter will do!!!
Might have to get these when my Bustin 85mm finally give up the ghost
Saquen las caguamas! 🇲🇽 🍻
Would the 85mm caguama wheels fit boosted v2 dual?
Yes they will! The Caguamas will work on every Boosted model except the V1. The V2 and later versions all use the same motor system and gear/pulley sizing, which fits the Orangatang Kegel, which shares the same core as the Orangatang Caguama!
Sorry for the late reply!
LoadedNewsletter is it w worthwhile upgrade over the stock 80mm? Mine are pretty new still but I just placed an order for these...just want to be sure that I will feel a difference
Sorry, at 1:14 does he just... Ride up a flat curb, slappy-style?
Yes. Big wheels save lives.
damn i need this in my life right now, just got a Vanguard with some In heat wheels, wouldnt mind those 85s.
The Vanguard works absurdly well with the Orangatang Caguamas! Some of our riders enjoy using the stock cone and barrel bushings in their Paris 180mm Trucks with the Caguamas and have no issue of wheel bite at all!
Great looking wheel but please make a 90-97mm wheel with a kegel core for the eskate community. Why should Abec 11 get all of our money? Besides which I prefer orange to green!
We appreciate the love for the Orange!!!
We are always in constant development for new wheels. But we like to take our sweet time with testing and prototyping to make sure the final product meets our quality standards for our fans and customers!
Keep your eyes peeled for big things happening in the future!

0:48 WHERE CAN I FIND THAT DECK THAT LOOKS SO COOL SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME
That's an old Rolls Rolls deck. Shout out to Jack Smith for that one.
do they come with its own bering or do i have to buy and if i do what do you reccomend
They don't come with bearings unless you select that option
Are these better than shark wheels? If so, why?
The Orangatang Caguamas are poured in our special Happy Thane Formula, which is an ultra high rebound urethane designed for smooth riding and fast roll speed.
The Caguamas are 85mm tall, which gives them the ability to roll over just about anything in the road or sidewalks while also allowing the wheel to maintain it's momentum to carry you further and longer with each push.
The Caguamas also use a wide supportive core that keeps the edges of the urethane stiff so that the wheel can grip better to the ground and have a very slow and even wear pattern throughout their life.
Also, being a perfectly round and cylindrical wheel, you won't feel any funny wobbles whenever you turn, which helps you keep your speed in and out of carves.
Would you ever consider making an even softer duro like 77a it would be perfect for this wheel since it's mainly for pushing and electric skateboards it would sick to have even more of a cush ride and more grip
We're always working on developing new urethanes and new wheels! Be sure to keep your eyes peeled later this summer, your dreams might just come true!
Caguama on the LOOSE!!! =D
what was that weird deck, the one you shoed when you mentioned long distance pushing
That was an old prototype Rolls-Rolls pusher deck we've had for years!
I bought all three caguama. I like the light blue the best. But overall the orange are the best day to day commute. The purples are a little too hard for my liking. Still like it though.
They look fresh 🤙🏼
Thanks for the compliment! If only we could show people how tricky it was to get the inner pattern! Time and attention to detail pays off in the long, run we guess!
What is that board at 0:48 ?
Do they ship in canada?
We have a distributor order going out to Canada today! They should be arriving in local shops soon!
We also ship direct from our website!
loadedboards.com/caguama-85mm
i should stop watching this vids , they get me hyped
Is it okay if we keep making them though?!
1:44 that is so true get that with the kegel every once in a while
In terms of compatible trucks, the Paris 50's and Bear 45's are both 66mm in height. Would the slight difference in wheelbase make a difference in bite on something like a Dervish Sama or Icarus? Another question: I'm looking for a new freeride setup, and prefer to be no more than 3.5" inches off the ground from the top of the deck. What would you recommend to get the lowest height possible without bite from the Caguamas, while still having a flexy deck? Thanks!!!
WOW I LOVE THEM ALREADY
The Caguamas loved you before they even met you!
Do you guys make the wheels
Will they slide?
The Caguama's weren't designed with just sliding in mind, but more so, around the importance of ride feel and comfort for carving, commuting, pushing, and electric skateboarding.
After they have broken in and no longer have the shiny surface to the wheel, they can bust out quick and slashy slides just fine.
These are not the wheels you are looking for to set a new sliding distance record though, for that we suggest some of the Orangatang Center Set wheels like the Yellow Kilmers 86a!

Dose it get wheel bite on the icarus?
What's the double drop deck at 0:48?
I just got kegals like 4 days ago.... *palm to forehead
The Kegels are still our main/performance downhill wheel! The Caguama is fun for going fast, but when it comes to sliding at high speeds, the 80mm Kegel is more balanced, so you've still got gold in your hands!
LoadedNewsletter very true, just need to get my hands on these babies!!!
Pre-Order is available on orangatangwheels.com/wheels/caguama-85mm and will be shipped to your next Wednesday!
If you can't wait, you can find a local shop that carries them on our Dealer Locator: loadedboards.com/dealers
Kegels are still really good. Each set of wheels have different uses
Loaded Boards in the review the Icarus board is said to take up to 80mm wheels but I’ve seen posts saying they are using icarus with caguamas? How is this done , when I ordered my Icarus the shop said they couldn’t built it with caguamas without extremely tight trucks or risers because of wheel bite , can you clear this up , is it possible to use caguamas on my Icarus ?
may I use them on Tesseract?
how can u go right and left so fast in short time?
turny trucks and flexy deck :)
LOOPHOLES. Gotta get me some for my DIY Vanguard ESK8!
Dude yess! We gotta see some pics of them when you put them on!
I have a Sector 9 board, they fit great. But my friend has a drop deck and has a clearance problem so be careful about that if buying these wheels
I bought some with some reds bearings there are sweet
If you guys made a 77a Kegel with a wider contact patch, you’d run the downhill game. Everybody I know who has tried kegerator thinks the same, and i hope one day it will :/

he does a fucking SHUVIT on 85mm soft wheels
camilo is a legend
One wheels here in the Philippines please!!!
What the heck is the deck at 0:48 ?
We've had it around for years, but we believe it is an old Rolls-Rolls prototype board
Sort of reminds me of a hardcore version of the landyacht board. works great with carvon E-Boards!
This guy is lit
so just a slightly bigger kegel with skin and rounded edges?
The Orangatang Kegel was designed with the intent of being a top performance downhill/freeride wheel, but was also pretty well suited for carving, pushing, and electric skateboards.
After a couple years, we felt the need for something bigger for the disciplines the Kegel's performed well in, but weren't solely designed for.
So after several different iterations and years of testing, we created the Caguama! The answer to the need for something faster, smoother and unstoppable for all of the long distance pushers, carvers, and electric skateboarders out there!
I'll find a way to make them work on my tan tien 🤔
We've tried them on the Tan Tien! With Bear Grizzly 852's, they work well, but if you are using Paris 180mm Trucks, then you just need to use double barrel bushings like the Orangatang Nipples!

LoadedNewsletter thanks a lot! Makes it a lot easier then (I use Paris 180s)
Howd he get up that curb?
Speed, a good entry angle, and the sheer force of anger and determination.
Cant wait to put em on my Dinghy
That would be so fun!
We suggest putting different trucks on your Dinghy first, though! Paris 150mm trucks work really well on the mini-setups we've tried the Caguamas on!
0:49 CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHAT BOARD THAT IS PLEASEEEEEE
Hey dude, I emailed Loaded with that same question:
Dusty from Loaded told me it was a prototype deck. He also told me that they're working on a LDP deck designed for the Caguamas, so stay on the lookout. Can't imagine it wouldn't be similar to that one.
David Catanzaro yeah man i appreciate the reply,i just say that deck and thought it looked sick so i had to know!
Looks like a remake of the Rolls Rolls Woody. Have been looking for one for a long time! Also came with 85 mm (and 97 mm) wheels.
WHAT IS THAT DECK AT 0:49
Bought mine for high speed freeriding, if they're not made for that I'm still gonna make it work😂
Please be safe 😳
LoadedNewsletter I'm already a couple mm into the meat and they slide awesome👌
what board is that at 0:48 ?
An old DIY Rolls-Rolls pusher board. That thing is about 9 years old and still kicking!
@@LoadedBoards could you send a link please?
What's that drop deck?
An old DIY Rolls-Rolls pusher deck, we've had that thing for years because it rides so insanely low!
We needed a wider grippy kegel though :(
Oddly enough, wider doesn't necessarily mean grippier!
It is a factor in terms of how much speed you shave off when sliding and slowing down, but lip profiles and edge support from large cores are what really determine grippiness.
What???
Yeah that's what I'm saying, kegels have good edge hold but are wayyyyy slidier than most competitive race wheels, a kegel with a 70mm contact would have a grippier slide and the huge core would still support the lip enough to grip I would think. Basically I want an orangatang Magnum because I don't chug enough liquor or wear enough flannel to skate Venom shit
Recommends purple. Buys blue instead
