If you skate in the city and are looking for stability without compromising on agility, the Flying Eagle Horizon is your new go-to choice.
Whilst the market is moving towards larger wheels, this L80 axle opts for a lower profile. Its innovative design positions the front mounting block between the first and second wheels, achieving the lowest ground clearance on the market for 4x80 mm setups. This translates to a centre of gravity closer to the tarmac, greater control, better power transfer and high-performance urban skating.
These frames are designed for urban skaters and freeride enthusiasts who demand precision in every move. They’re not for those seeking only straight-line speed, but for those who need to change direction quickly, dodge obstacles and feel confident at top speed. From beginners and intermediate skaters to veterans who want to get the most out of every inch of their boots. If your daily routine involves tarmac, bends and sudden stops, the Flying Eagle Horizon will make you feel the ground like never before.
What makes the Flying Eagle Horizon unique is not a single feature, but the combination of several engineering decisions that few manufacturers dare to make.
The lowest on the market. Most 4x80 frames have a standard height that forces you to ride higher. Flying Eagle has repositioned the front mount between the first and second wheels. This isn’t just an aesthetic quirk: it reduces key millimetres that lower your centre of gravity. In town, that means less wobble when you lean back on your heels and more confidence when weaving between cars.
Progressive flat setup. Here’s the interesting bit: it’s not a flat deck, but one with a very subtle micro-rocker. What do you get? Stability at high speeds like a 4x90, but manoeuvrability and corner exit like a classic 4x80. The wheelbase is longer than the standard 243 mm, so you won’t have that feeling of riding a toy skateboard. It’s the sweet spot between control and aggression.
Asymmetrical wheel layout. It sounds odd, but it makes perfect sense. The wheels aren’t symmetrically centred relative to the longitudinal axis. This better mimics the natural biomechanics of your stride. In practice, each push makes better use of the energy you put in, and weight transfers are smoother. Designed specifically for city cruising, freeride and even freeskate, but not for speed skating.
