Hi everyone, I was using the search engine to try and find out what year the Rat-Bones 90A and the mini cubes wheels came out. But I couldn't find the info and I can't remember what the years where.
Were rat bones first 85a and then later they made 90a? Here's an ad from '84 (Vato rat posted it the other day) that shows mini cubes. Has rat bones too but doesn't show durometers.
Skately says this is '85 and it has a pic of 90a rat bones. Browse through the PP ads at the skately.com library and you'll probably figure it out or at least narrow it down pretty good.
Cab actually created the OG Rat Bones. Apparently they were first designed as a roller skate wheel. Cab tried them on his board, liked them, made a few alterations and the Rat Bone was born! I'm pretty sure the OG Rat Bones came out around 83-84.
Yeah, @SK8ER ! I only recently learned about this, and I can't remember where I read it. Did Cab post it on his Instagram? Related, there's this... http://rollerbones.com/
