OJ Double Duro wheels drop 35%, plus four other deals worth grabbing
OJ's dual-durometer wheels lead this week's biggest drops at 35% off, with Violet, Deathwish, and Santa Monica Airlines decks close behind.
A handful of deals worth flagging hit this weekend, and the OJ Double Duro wheels are the clear headline — 35% off is not a number you see on wheels this often. Beneath that, there's a cluster of deck discounts in the 25-29% range covering some genuinely interesting boards, from Violet's Lollipop series to a Santa Monica Airlines 11-inch limited edition that skews very niche. If you've been putting off a wheel or deck refresh, the timing is decent. Here's what's actually worth your attention.
Wheels: OJ Double Duro Gum Hardline 54mm 99a/95a — 35% off
The OJ Double Duro Gum Hardline 54mm 99a/95a is down to $39.99 from $61.99 — that's $22 off and the biggest percentage drop in today's tracker. The dual-durometer construction is the actual story here: a 99a core handles the structural load and gives you that snappy, responsive pop off the tail, while the 95a gum outer layer contacts the ground. That outer layer is meaningfully softer, which translates to better grip on smoother surfaces without the wheel feeling sluggish. At 54mm you're in a practical street size that clears most street trucks without risking wheelbite, but still rolls fast enough that you're not constantly pumping on flat ground.
This wheel is built for technical street skating where you want a wheel that holds its line through a trick but doesn't grab unexpectedly on a slide. The gum colorway also tends to leave less residue on ledges than a standard urethane color, which is a practical bonus if you're skating spots that have already been waxed to death. At $39.99, you're paying less than you would for a standard single-durometer set from most mid-tier brands, which makes the dual-compound construction genuinely good value here.
Wheels: OJ Double Duro Gum Hardline 53mm 101a/95a — 35% off
Same discount, different animal. The OJ Double Duro Gum Hardline 53mm 101a/95a also hits $39.99 from $61.99, but the 101a core rating puts this in a noticeably harder category than its 54mm sibling. At 101a you're getting minimal rebound — the wheel does not want to absorb energy, it wants to transfer it directly into your trick. Combined with the 53mm diameter, this is a purpose-built tech street setup: small, hard, low-rolling-resistance, fast to flick.
The 95a outer layer still softens the contact patch enough to keep you from sliding out unpredictably on regular street surfaces, but make no mistake, this is a wheel for skaters who already know they like skating hard. If you've been on something in the 99a-100a range and found it comfortable, these are worth trying at this price. If you're coming from a cruiser or softer park setup, start with the 54mm 99a version instead — the 101a on real-world pavement with any texture will punish you.
Decks: Violet Lollipop 8.25 and 8.5 — 29% off
Violet is a French brand with a reputation for clean graphics and quality pressing, and both the VIOLET LOLLIPOP YELLOW 8.25" and the VIOLET LOLLIPOP GREEN 8.5" are at $55.00 down from $78.00 — 29% off on either width. No extra spec data beyond width here, so the decision between them is straightforward: 8.25 if you're skating smaller trucks and want a snappier feel underfoot, 8.5 if you're on wider trucks or prefer a more planted stance. The Lollipop colorways tend to move fast when they're in stock at full price, so seeing both available at this discount at the same time is unusual.
At $55 you're in the range where you're not compromising on wood quality — this isn't a budget deck tier. Violet presses their boards in small runs, which partly explains the original $78 MSRP, and that production approach generally means consistent concave and snap across the batch. If you've been curious about the brand but couldn't justify the full price, this is a reasonable entry point.
Deck: Santa Monica Airlines 11.0 LTD — 25% off
The Santa Monica Airlines Skater Hall Of Fame 11.0 LTD Skateboard Deck is down to $93.95 from $125.27, and it earns a mention because an 11-inch wide deck is a genuinely rare format in 2026. SMA is one of the few brands still pressing boards at this width with any regularity, and this one is a limited edition tied to the Skater Hall of Fame, which gives it both a collectible angle and a specific intended rider profile.
An 11-inch deck is not for everyone — it's a pool, bowl, and big ramp platform for skaters who ride wide trucks and want maximum foot real estate on steep transitions. If you're coming from anything under 9.5 inches, this will feel like a door. But for a certain type of skater, especially those coming from the era when SMA was actively shaping pool skating culture, this kind of board at $93.95 is a legitimate deal on something that's hard to find pressed at this quality anywhere else right now.
