Glad you and your family are all well. Thanks for another cracking video. Get that Farmer bundle on the new Adapts...that would look amazing! Full respect for your work around helmets / pride / royalties etc. You are such a good figure to have in our community and I industry. 👍
Not to worry Lawrence, I understand life gets hectic sometimes. I've been the same lately. thank you for the kind words on the walls and thank you for the opportunity to design for the Core 2 :)
On the 90mm rockering, worth mentioning that the Sola 90mm isn't rockered at all. Good for cruising, less good for doing flatland stuff which is popular at the moment. The Wizard NR 90 is rockered, but it's rockered differently to the Kizer - the 3rd wheel is lowest, with the front wheel highest. Wizard raises the front wheel by ~0.5mm, and rear wheel by 1mm apparently. Feels more natural apparently which makes sense. I have the Kizer 90mm - no real basis of comparison other than against the GC 80mm frame (totally flat) But i like the 1mm rocker and didn't feel unstable at any time even at high speed. I'm assuming it will wear-in as well and probably eventually feel more like the Wizard Natural rocker provided you don't rotate your wheels. I was, to be honest, a bit underwhelmed with the rocker at first - I wanted it more swibberly :-)
Hey man, just want to say that I really like your products and your motifs. That pride AR wheel is awesome too. And the passion behind your projects is positively contagious. I am so happy we have people like you aboard the inline cruise with all it's variants, colors, shapes and smells. Keep it up Law, thanks again. By the way, balance frames are superb
As a size 13 I can’t tell you how stoked I am for some 290 prime frames. I’ve been dying to skate them but just couldn’t make them work in the past! Thanks for looking out for us big foot folks
Called out for our buckled teeth by the shiny happy people 😭 haha We have a new phenomenon here where people are trying to achieve that Hollywood smile on the cheap and getting "Turkey teeth" - teeth done on the cheap in Turkey where less than ideal outcomes are being achieved... Keep up the good work! 🙌
Very excited for the 290 cores! Now there's an option for 72-60 rocker in prime frames. Will no longer have to deal with two piece axles like the Oysi have and get a sturdier frame as well. Symetrics soul plates with the 290 primes will be a dream. I'm sure you're eyeing this for the Adapts 😄
Always wanted to try Adapts but im not sure how i feel about having the cuff lining Velcro into place, really looking forward to seeing how you get on with this alot further down the line as my initial thoughts are that the velrco will wear thin and the lining will start to move around. I truly am hoping this isn't the case as i really would like some custom Adapts one day. Cant wait to see how you get on with these beautiful boots :)
Hi, I love your videos. I am nearly turning 40 and getting the bug to get back into blading. I really want to get an adapt brutale or them 909 skates. Which one would you go for? Also r u doing the helmet giveaway? As I would love to get one. I am also trying to get the British Army to create a skate team together to get more people into skating for competition and fitness. Anyway I hope your well and your family are well too. Take care from across the pond.
Hi Lawrence, Just to give a few hints about the différence between Stealth and Brutale : the nubuck is thinner on the Brutale, the Eyelets have been set slightly more on the outside, the heel pocket has been revisited and the way the nubuck is attached has changed. Now, I have a question for you about the '' inner liner''. Does it feel to give extra support ?
