Shark Wheel Shark Tank Pitch
Shark Wheel is a new invention from David Patrick and Zack Fleishman. Their wheel is actually a cube that optimizes speed and stability. They have improved the wheel by applying principals that allow for speed and stability. They used a mathematical design based on a cube that rolls better than a traditional wheel.
Their current focus is on Skateboard wheels. They are selling these wheels worldwide. They have stroller and wagon wheels. The skateboard wheels are the only wheels that are production wheels. The wheels on the wagon and stroller are prototype wheels.
The geometery of the wheel feels like a skinny wheel, and has the stability of a larger wheel. Rocks spin off instead of wrecking a skate boarder. They have sold 4,000 units that cost $12 and sell for $69, for over $180,000 in four months. Shark Wheel is doing a deal with a stroller company and Razor Scooter.
They add after getting offers that they have investors in, they have raised $603,000 and three of the investors are in at a $10 million evaluation.
