13 REASONS WHY ANTI-ROCKER IS BETTER 

I skate both! Dont limit yourself ❤

It's better then having no wheels 😂

Back into skating since 2002. Had my first skate session on roces m12 anti rocker and did not like the feeling. What are some good wheels/size/hardness to get to replace the anti rockers!?!?

Thanks for this one! Its been weeks that i cant decide about anti rocker or flat 👍

Thats awsome. You should do a video talking about Juice Block or GBlock. What’s the difference of Antirocker?

OK. I just got my first set of aggressive frames. I was upset with myself because I ordered the Kizer IV without realizing the Kizer V is available. I'm still awaiting my wheels. This video makes me feel better about the frames I got. I've been skating Razors Cosmos and just got some new Powerslide liners in them. The hills here in the Midwest are terrifying. Hopefully the smaller wheels will help with that and encourage me to skate the parks more and the streets less. I think I'll get some SUV frames, too. Falling on grass seems favorable.

This is a new year. New mindset. Changes are needed to grow. That s why i am going to buy a pair of rollerblades. This channel is one thing that inspires me. 🎉

(Semi) Sarcastic Freestyle Frames Devil's advocate 1 Cheaper than AR 2 Lighter than AR 3 (Being Serious, I don't know if this is actually true, flats having 4 points of contact would suggest being the most stable) 4 Irrelevant, If my friends ain't skating freestyle. I have no need to swap frames 5 Nothing smoother than no wheels at all 6 Nothing Easier with that big ass window of a Freestyle Frame 7 Same 8 Same -9 No comment- 10 Feels like more of a wheel profile discussion 11 3 and 10 play a role here 12 Same 13 Just need the Dick Fosbury of skating to show up in freestyles, problem solved

I was excited starting again a month ago because with anti rocker, I could skate and not get knee pain. (Knee issues stopped my lifelong skateboarding). I tried flat setup today and at the end of the session had really bad knee pain. I think it was twisting and antirocker was not.

So if I remove the 2 middle wheels from my fleamarket find Salomon st:s? Can I call my setup antirocker? Or if I put in the middle 2 smaller grindwheels? Or is the frame also rockered? I’m a skier so rocker means a little different in my sport😅

I'm 44 and still ride flat on my salomon St originals 😂😂

I loved the Broskow reference for justifying rolling anti. It isn't that serious, just have fun.

is it possible adapt a rollerblade twister xt to anti rocker?

Im looking forward to your arguments 😉 If youre a big guy weighing in at around 90kg or more, your wheels wear a lot faster and break a lot easier on Anti, so already by this: its not for everyone.. Sure, unmatched grindabilty/no wheel-bite, but also skating like on train rails.. 🚂 Thats why we've got so many awesome flat frames on the market these days. Just took us 25+ years to get there.. 😅 Reminder is set 👍 Nothing but love! ❤

I switch between flat and full rocker, using 95a hardness in middle and dont get wheelbite. Edit, yes i do. Skill>profile > hardness

I am kinda sceptical on the stability claims. Ofc you have way more experience than I do, but downhill skaters never use only two wheels and I figure they would if it's that more stable and less speed wobbly.

Featherlite 3s in general are still tough to beat, they’ve well and truly stood the test of time.

you're tempting me to go back...

I tried to skate flat, but it didn’t work, I like anti rocker better

Pero si patino con aggressive es obvio que uso antirocker, sino como se supone que patinaría?

Now thats a bold statement my friend 😂

#TooOldForFlat

I think antirocker is better for everything but actually skating, 2 wheels feels too limiting, it's like I'm on train tracks. It depends on your style though, I personally want a skate that can also grind, not a grind that can also skate.

What about freestyle 😅 cheaper, lighter and the world becomes a grinding paradise. *just trolling...

Flat will always be better. Most of your points can be easily debunked, but we won't get into that. It all comes down to personal preference, but if you do ride flat make sure you get a frame that's made for it and most, if not all, of these points won't even matter.

Hmmmmm 🤔 🤔 😂😂😂😂

Anti rocker is only good for grinding and im 45.

The person who swore on the endless rocker frame now is hitting me with the opposite.................ok

After 20 years of anti there is nothing you can do on flat that i can't do on anti. It's definitely not cheaper tho it kills wheels much faster

To me, aeons would be the perfect skate, if they could sort out the slow grinding. I'd also like an anti-rocker uniboot skate. Aeons just feel like an extension of my foot, the low ride and light weight is their strength.

I have a flat setup on my Adapts for cruising around at the park with the girls and carving a bunch and I still do the occasional grind on them but I skate Anti for pretty much everything. I have never had an issue with turning, getting speed or skating around on anti. Then again, I'm over 40.

People in their 30s will get mad about this, but people in their 40s will agree 🤣🤣🤣

personally elevated my skate alot with flat set up, but to each their own of course!

But I enjoy the skating part of skating 😅

It’s not better, it’s the best! 😈

Very entertaining and informative but just disappointed. I thought you were educating beginners about skates but you’re actually confusing them. You have a video showing why flat is better, which contradicts what you said in this one. I guess you have to sell whatever setup Rollerblade throws in front of you.

Just watching the pros skate transition against each other its clear whos running flat bs anti. The anti look like the struggle to push and land big tricks. Also they dont do more grinds so why not just run flat and have more control?

I like antrocker. However skating concret bowls you slide out with anti rocker. So I go flat for concrete park and anti for chunky street

Mr Lino, as a mature of age skater like myself, you blow my mind with your steezy skating, inspires me in my 40s to keep at it, even though it's been 25 years!

Re: #12 & wheel slides. Are they not really bad for your wheels? I haven’t skated in years but I remember doing T stops back in the 90’s & getting horrible flat spots on my Hyper Fat Boys. After that, rolling felt awful & trying to bomb hills sounded like a woodpecker!

Hey trying to get back into skating I was really good when I stopped 17yrs ago I used to ride k2 fattys 250cc what would you recommend

I e only skated a anti till recently, and I’m converted to flat. It’s just makes rolling more fun for me but I will always see the good in anti.

i loooove how everyone brings up alex b as a point, cuz its huge and a massive reason im bout to try anti again lolol, and that og junkyu edit got me curious

Daora lino!! Comprei um sk desse ai, os liners dele sao muito confortaveis! Ce nao curtiu eles nao?

Anti rocker is too slow. Flat is faster.

a person can fight on anti, where as a person can get away 4 down.

Now I need a video on Tri-Rocker!

I do anyway not understand the hype about flat-frames concerning aggressive-skating. Nowadays you have incredible good antirocker-frames and if you mount bigger wheels on them (from 60mm upward) you will speedwise not feel a huge difference to a flat frame. The only real advantages of a flat frame in aggressive skating are in my eyes just if you roll on nasty surfaces if you skate street, for doing huge gaps or if you like to add wizard tricks in your aggressive skating. But the advantages of an antirocker setup with bigger wheels are in my opinion ways bigger in aggressive skating than on a flat setup.

What about swivels tho?!! 😁 Good points and all comes down to preference in the end. Flat/rockered setup provides much more agility and glide. And for me personally, the fun factor is soooo much about the middle wheels and what they bring. Agreed that anti makes many grinds easier. Especially on ledges.

So hard to turn sharply though, and forget about hockey stopping!
