Yes, the wheels on your Techni-Ski skateboard can be swapped out – but there are a few important compatibility details to check first. Axle Diameter (likely? Or 10mm). Older boards like the Techni-Ski often use a non-standard axle diameter – typically larger than modern 8mm (5/16) axles. Yours looks like it might be? (9.5mm or 10mm) based on the trucks and wheel hubs. Most modern bearings are made for 8mm axles, but 10mm bearings are still available. Wheel Width and Diameter. Your original wheels are. Extra wide, likely around 60-65mm wide. Diameter appears to be around 60-70mm. Likely made of a very hard urethane or rubber compound. Modern wheels that are similarly wide and suitable for cruising or downhill (where width helps with grip and stability). Recommended Modern Replacements (Wide Wheels). Seismic Speed Vent 77mm x 52mm. Abec 11 BigZig HD 75mm x 53mm. Cloud Ride Slusheez 62mm x 45mm. Orangatang Caguama 85mm x 58.5mm (if you want oversized wheels – might need risers). These will ride smoother, grippier, and quieter than your current rubber wheels, and they’ll also modernize the feel dramatically. Bearings for 10mm Axles. If your Techni-Ski axles are 10mm, you’ll need. Bearings like Bones 10mm Swiss, Riptide 10mm, or Rogue 10mm. Alternatively, use 8mm bearings with 10mm axle sleeves, but this is less reliable under load. Spacer and Speed Ring Fit. Modern wheels often require. Bearing spacers inside the core (especially for wide wheels). Speed rings on each side to reduce friction. Summary of What You Need. Confirm axle size (likely 10mm). Get wide, modern urethane wheels (45mm+ width). Use 10mm ID bearings (or adapters). Ensure axle length can accommodate wide cores + spacers.

Baseplate is a NOS Tracker carbon graphite ultralight version, I do not have the original Mag baseplate. Truck has marks, chips, missing paint etc.. These vintage mag trucks are getting harder to find for sure and pricing reflects this, but wanted to have them go to someone who needs only 1 to make a pair or for display or actual use (although I wouldn’t). Thanks for looking and keep on skating!
