If your like me and at first thought that CF stood for Carbon Fibre, Im here to tell you are WRONG! The CF in these Sabre Trucks stands for Cold Forged. If your also like me and have no Idea what cold forging is or what it means for your trucks you can follow the link over to the Sabre Site. The guys there were nice enough to give us all a breakdown of the advantages to Cold Forging and what it actually means.

Well the 2012 season is fast approaching us here in Canada. Im finally back from my adventure to Trade shows and longboard Events. Were getting geared up with some new product like the New wheel from Orangatang, and some really good looking 2012 Kebbek Boards. Keep a close eye on the blog to see the New Product as it comes in for Spring.
From the KebbeK Facebook: We couldn’t keep it quiet any longer. 
Winter is here in snowy Montreal and the KebbeK staff has been a little blue – actually very blue. We mean, shoes, shirts, hands and faces! Once again, we’re releasing some of the most labour-intensive, jaw-dropping hand silkscreened four colour graphics for the 2012 line. And if that isn’t enough we are putting 
5th coloured graphic on top. There’s one more su…rprise but, well, it’s a surprise… By the way, did we mention we’re about to celebrate our 20th this year? Without further ado, here is the 2012 John Barnet. For more info …

As we collectively began to dabble in new directions in sliding, we found ourselves in want of a new and unique wheel. Our existing lineup of freeride wheels (the Durian, Stimulus, and Fat Free) maintained a conservative balance of traction and driftability that is intended for downhill freeriding. The current emphasis is on the ability to grip and hold a line through corners at speed. The slide aspect of these wheels is focused on shaving off speed (in a pragmatic fashion) as well as to begin exploring progressive freeriding.
The Balut is the result of our desire to investigate the other end of the grip-slip spectrum: a freestyle slide wheel that allows for longer drifts and quicker, more numerous rotations with minimal speed loss. This is a first step in a new direction for us, and we’re excited to see where it takes us.
Baluts will be available worldwide on Thursday, February 2nd.
Diameter: 72.5 mm
Contact patch: 35 mm
Width: 44 mm
Durometers: 80a, 83a, 86a
Weight: 4.7 oz (per wheel)
Bearing seat: centerset
