It has been over a month with the NN Skates Dragon frames attached to my freeskates. I have taken them everywhere with me. It is finally time to give you my thoughts on these unique 5x80mm V rockered frames.

Inline skating is dangerous. In some situations, I may choose to skate
without protective gear at my own risk. I highly encourage the use of protective gear.

Thanks for the work you do for the inline skate community! I've just picked up my first 5 wheeled frame which is the NN Dragon, but it's the XL one with 90mm wheels. 🤯 You definitely made me think of NN as an extremely reputable company and this was one of the first videos where I seriously thought about trying 5 down 🙌

Dude I love skating rockered. My frames are flat so I just rotate the wheels in place and wear them into a natural rocker - it always sucks going back to fresh wheels and skating flat for the first session or two. I'm waiting on some endless frames but after watching this, these look really cool man. Really hope I can try them out down the road too.

Regarding frame length... yeah, my Ronin frames have a 303mm axle-to-axle. I clip my wheels pretty frequently, but the frames are so heavy and stable that it rarely messes me up. I've been skating rockered setups for most of the last three years. I've watched Zone more times than I can count. My main setup was 4x80 rockerable K2 Midtown frames on K2 Unnatural boots, and then I upgraded to one of the finest rockered setups on the market, the FR1 Deluxe. So for me, getting used to the rocker wasn't that big a deal, but getting used to the frame length is something I'm still working on. When my wife bought me Trimax frames for christmas one year, they replaced my Midtown frames on the Unnaturals. Sadly, the rockerable frame spacers are rather janky on that setup. Far too steep a rocker to actually use, and the overall length of the frame (255mm) doesn't lend itself all that well to rockering anyway. I've seen some folks use 3d-printed H-blocks on that frame, and for a while I was interested in that, but like you said with the Dragon+Monkey Blocks, it'd be like grinding on stilts. Probably worse since Trimax frames are so damn tall.
@ThirtyandRollin
@ThirtyandRollin 3 года назад
Ya you get over the negatives to the length pretty quick. The h-blocks are different story. Tough to get comfortable grinding on tall frames.

@RichHayterSkater 3 года назад
Thorough review, Dude. The look of these didn’t interest me initially, but when I saw the h-block I wondered if they could be something I might want to try. I looks as though the block itself could be reduced so that it sits higher up and close to the frame, no? I wonder why it sits so low? The pros and cons really helped.👍
@ThirtyandRollin
@ThirtyandRollin 3 года назад
If it was higher up it would be nicer for control/feel but then you will introduce more wheel bite.
@Fero1122
@Fero1122 3 года назад
Thanks for the detailed review! I'm hesitating between the Vm and the V rocker sets. Right now I think the V rocker might be in fact slightly more stable because of the 3+3 contact wheels, and that's the main advantage of these frames over a typical 76-80-80-76 shorter rocker frame...
@ThirtyandRollin
@ThirtyandRollin 3 года назад
Yes that is true but the constant weight shifting over 1 point can make them feel less stable. Where the Vm never feels like you are on a single teeter totter point.

I'm pretty sure I had the biggest cheezy grin watching your edit--so rad. I also have the same experience with rockered frames: Never tried until NN and now I'm hooked (even got 84mm bullet profile wheels which have such a satisfying sound when I carve) Not sure if I just missed it, but do they provide on there the measurements of how many millimetres each wheel is lifted? Also yes! I've been telling everyone that NN are the 2-mount versions of Wizards--even went out of my way and put them on Seba GT's
@ThirtyandRollin
@ThirtyandRollin 3 года назад
I think they are 1mm each wheel so 2mm from middle to outside wheels. Don't quote me though we should ask @NNskates.

Great info, I've been waiting for this review. They should let you test the other frames. I have been looking at the Ronin I belive 4x100 thinking that could be a good balance of agility and speed . I just went from 3x110 to 4x80 on my fitness skate to work on my footwork and enjoy the flow more. I love the confidence the 4 wheels and a longer frame give me, but I miss the top speed of big wheels. Do you think the 4x100 could provide both? Speed and maneuverability?

I wonder how do you rotate your wheels on these to keep the rocker. Do you already figured out some system? I‘ve got the ninja frame and the standart 1st to 3rd and 2nd to 4th rotation works great to prevent getting full rocker or flat. I could imagine it‘s a bit harder to keep that subtle v rocker on five wheels.
@ThirtyandRollin
@ThirtyandRollin 3 года назад
I have not figured that out yet. But when I do I'll let you know.

Just on looks alone they seem a lot taller than they need to be. I get that the second wheel is directly below the mounting bolt but it seems like there's an extra 1cm at least on top of that? And the big mounting platforms you get on freeskate boots. Seems unnecessary, maybe.
