The Bones Wheels X97 Torey Pudwill Frying Eyes V2 Locks (51mm/97a) blends the proven performance of BONES’ groundbreaking X-Formula™ (XF) urethane with signature artwork from one of skateboarding’s most influential modern street skaters, Torey Pudwill. Featuring a clean white urethane body and an eye-catching ring of illustrated eyes surrounding the center graphic, this wheel delivers a unique visual that stands out whether you're skating a ledge line, manual pad, or rough city streets.
The graphic centers around a circular chain of colorful, hand-drawn eyes with bright blue irises, alternating pink and yellow accents, and black outlines that create a hypnotic "Frying Eyes" effect. Wrapped around the core are the inscriptions "Bones Wheels," "Torey Pudwill," "X-Formula," and "V2 Slim," tying together the wheel's signature design and performance pedigree. The V2 Slim shape offers a narrower profile with a versatile contact patch, providing quick response, reduced weight, and excellent control for technical street skating.
At 51mm and 97a, these wheels occupy the sweet spot between traditional hard street wheels and softer filmer-style setups. Thanks to BONES' revolutionary X-Formula™, they roll faster and smoother over rough pavement while still delivering the slide characteristics skaters expect from harder wheels. Whether you're skating the sidewalks of Pasadena, rough parking lots in El Monte, schoolyards in Arcadia, or crusty alleyways throughout the San Gabriel Valley, these wheels help maintain speed while reducing vibration and impact fatigue.
Founded by George Powell and Stacy Peralta, BONES Wheels has spent decades pushing skateboard wheel technology forward. The X-Formula project alone underwent more than ten years of research and refinement before its release, creating a wheel that combines speed, slide control, durability, and comfort in ways previously thought impossible. The result is a wheel trusted by professionals around the world.
Torey Pudwill's influence extends far beyond his technical skating. Raised in Southern California and known worldwide as the founder of Grizzly Griptape, Pudwill has built a reputation through legendary video parts, contest success, and relentless dedication to progression. His signature products reflect the same attention to detail that made him one of the most respected names in modern skateboarding.
