THIS FACTORY MAKES THE BEST WHEELS FOR INLINE & QUAD SKATING, SKATEBOARDING & SCOOTERS 

Such fun insight into the inner workings of the urethane wheel industry. He genuinely seems very into his job. And he knows,and respects,his employees. So glad I watched this. Thank you Lino!

What a smart business man. One, for getting out of CA, and two, for helping other businesses grow.

Very good 👍

This was great! Rode Dead wheels for a year. Just switched out some year old Undercovers for a set of SIC. To another year. Much respect to Tony and everyone at Aend Industries!!!

I absolutely loved that!! It's awesome seeing big companies from the inside, and to see a company making inline wheels that I use, I loved it and the young gentleman Tony is on the ball with wheel making and design, I freaking loved this video Ricardo! well done Tony and well done Ricardo for the video!!! You could have stayed there all day and I would have watched.

If you could make a video of USD skates production line it would be much appreciated and really cool.

This really made me appreciate the industry sooo much more! Thanks for this video!

Fascinating! Thank you for the investigative reports Lino!!!

I've broken many bones because of Senate Skate videos, in my youth 🤣 Good to see the dude still going.

21:55 now I know where my wheels come from ❤Love both my 110 and 80 UC blanks :) Nice insight into the wheel industry!

Superb info! Very interesting to see a real plant for wheels. Well done!

This was an awesome video! Never new how interesting wheel manufacturing could be

good and instructive video. Thank U Ricardo and Tony.

Serious setup..😳 Amazing

*THAT* was an unique inside video! 😃👍 Muito obrigado, Ricardo!

Awsome watch. Learned a lot.

that was really interesting!

I really appreciate Ricardo and this video and videos like it. It allows you to see a different side of skating and a deeper look into where it came from and how it’s still going after all this time

Amazing Ricardo!

These are all amazing inline skating wheel brands...... (great content on inside story of how these cool wheels are made, respect).......

i feel willy wonka of the skating world just give you a tour of the factory, super cool vid🤯

Best RU-vid channel for Inline Skating.... big greetz from germany

Thank you for this one 👍

Fascinating look behind the scenes! Happy to see wheels being made in TX.

Caraca, muito bom esse vídeo Ricardo! Te acompanho faz quase um mês e o conteúdo que vc traz é sempre bacana!

I remember them building there in Hutto Tx, I lived less than a mile from them. Great company to work with!! They made Konjure wheels, Just BTW

This is so interesting. I always wondered how skate parts were made, especially the wheels.

What a nerdy interview. Excellent.

Muito bom mesmo!! Gostei muito de ver como as coisas são feitas. Obrigado pelo vídeo!

Great video dude And cool idea actually

Rob Harrington. I miss Konjure so much. I remember going to Aend Industries in HB, where I live and am 2 blocks away and seeing the first Konjure Sample and grabbed them to shipped to Rob. So made it to Florida some didn’t. Hahaha. Good times. Still have my first set.

think i'll be sending of an email. Great vid. incredibly informative, and just what i've been looking for.

The Iqon Eco wheels are so good for speed and durability! They are the only wheels I buy now =)

Awesome video! I've been curious where my wheels were coming from.

Wow thanks for that video, Its so cool to see where wheels come from.

Sup Lino, this is a great topic because i keep having an issue with my wheels. They all fail due to core debonding and separating from the urethane. I have about 50 wheels stored that broke with this issue. Theyre from different brands and i still keep them because i hope to find a way to repair them, many failed while being practically new, and i keep them hoping i eventually find a way to repair them so i can use them, and by doing so i wont have just wasted the $600 i spent on buying them all. Some of the wheels are: (they failed very early, after couple wheeks and just 1mm, they should ve last much much longer) -> 22 Hyper Fat Boys 72mm 84a -> 4 Kryptonics Rampage 72mm 85a -> 12 Ground Control 64mm 90a -> Rollerblade Supreme 80mm 85a (those failed at half life) -> Red Eye Jarrod Banning 64mm 90a -> Gawds original wheels from my FM2 skates, i guess 62mm 90a failed very prematurely as well. But i doubt its my fault, that i keep doing something wrong thats causing this. Some wheels that did not broke and i was able to use till the end are the Hyper Juvenile Delinquent 63mm 92a (lasted till being 48mm), Hyper X-360 Cross-Fit 80mm 82a, K2 aggressive, Eulogy 58mm 90a (these, recently, began to fail as well but at the end of the lifecycle). So its not like i am misusingy wheels. Please help me out. Thanks

this is so awesome, I would give it 10 thumbs up if I could!

I have their wheels Rollerblade Hydrogen Preminum 84mm/85a... They are a great wheel

Bloody heck man, I want to go and order some wheels so badly but I shouldn't yet!

Boss man is really enthusiastic about skating! 👍 Do you by any chance have friends who can make the retractable wheels work? So that your skates can be turned into shoes with a push of a button? I know a cheap and useless version already exists, but the idea is excellent! If only someone could improve it. 🙏

What is the full list of brands they manufacture for? The last set of Undercover wheels I got are amazing!

Are those green cored wheels also Matter G13?

Em Sines podiamos fazer uma fabriqueta destas... a Repsol Polimeros produz TPU, PLA, etc...

Great video Ricardo ! Are gawds, iqon, dead and undercover all the same wheels then ? Also where are the Red eye wheels made ?

Just one question what was in Tony’s cup?

I'm pretty sure the freezing your wheels myth came from the Ryan Sheckler MTV cribs episode when he shows his freezer full of his wheels.

Last Supper and Cherries!! I know those folks :) they friends

super 👍

Where can I buy those 2nd sorted out wheels from? ;) Man wheels are expensive

Good 👍

Great video fully in depth....but you forgot one thing and that is....(to say) "Never forget why we started skating".

Hi, Great video. What is this place called?

okay, so the guy is holding onto his cup for 35 minutes of probably cut video footage... what's in the damn cup that's so precious?

So where I can buy this best wheels 😮

10:45 at first i thought those were the rollerblade hydrogen pro. But overall same concept

The noise in that facility is horrendous!! Those poor workers to have that drilled in their head 5 days a week 😵‍💫🤮

My BIG ? revolves around the best wheel for me, if the hardness measure isn't the way to measure best wheel for sliding on street, pavement, concrete, esplanade surfaces like Bill Stoppard..... he's short, trim, younger and light, im 6foot7, 135 kgs, and 50, and my understanding is the highr hardness level means less grip and more slide, and the 85a just to softer ratio to power slider, or do I just need to practice more.... only been at it 4 years now. And does the profile roundness also play a part ie more rounder fatter than slimmer - I think so.....?

I want Wheeladdict wheels for me.

Good on that dude scoring a job at Tesla :D

Explains why the high quality US made wheels dried up in certain sizes. Needs me some of them undercover team blanks....

Every time he finishes a sentence he say "so" 😂

Addict goes to chemical lab.

Majority of people say scott Corey makes the best quad wheels!!!

Anybody know the pricing? Guessing an 80mm wheel costs this guy 30 cents to produce. Sells it for $1 to a wheel "brand" who sells it for $3 to a skateshop who will resell it around $9 retail

I want this thing. I want this thing to downhill

They don't do inline speed skating wheels for pro athletes? they seem to do only for recreational inline skating

Glad he got out of California. Absolute nightmare to run an honest business there.

It is seen that Tony is a good boss. He bothers to speak some Spanish

That work is boring with shit pay, I know cause I use to work in a plastics factory, I walked out

300 bucks for 6 wheels, yea... no thanks

How do we know when or if they change a formula?? Also, are Iqon wheels any good even though they have vegan bullshit in em?

Soy based lol delicious wheels eh

Aend doesn't make the best wheels. Even the mushroom bladers guys are using Chinese manufacturers. Gyro is Korean they make better wheels these days as well

California losing great business again

I loved the video yesterday, but given time to process, I legit feel bad for all the employees that left California for Texas. Texas is great for business, but holy shit is it a terrible place for minorities. Any other companies making wheels in the USA? Because I think we should let Texas secede.

Can I please text me, I need help choosing new skates but not sure what to choose or what excatly I’m loooking for if u can help me that’d be awesome
