Overview
The Rinkster Splitster Wheels take everything players loved about the original Split and push it further. Built with the same unmistakable DNA, the Splitster is an evolution that delivers elite-level grip, speed, rebound, and stopping power, all while nodding to the wheel's legendary past.
With Dual Duro construction powered by Rink Rat's Elite Urethane Formula, the Splitster strikes the perfect balance: a softer inner layer loads for explosive energy return, while the firmer outer layer drives durability, control, and top-end speed. The result? A wheel that's faster, tougher, and more responsive than the OG.

| Product Note | DEK tile or similar non-hockey perforated tiles provide less wheel contact surface area. As a result, using wheels on these surfaces has less grip and will wear down quicker. |

Sizing Chart
| HOCKEY WHEEL HARDNESS GUIDELINES | |
|---|---|
| Roller hockey wheel hardness or durometer should be decided on factors like a player's weight, skill level and playing surface. The higher the durometer rating, the harder the wheel. For example, an 82A wheel is perfect for rough outdoor surfaces while a 76A wheel excels indoors. More advanced players can also benefit from harder wheels since they can utilize the extra rebound and speed. |
