i ended up getting institution liners for my SL's... and there's waaaay too much room now... idk if i need to down size the shell but it kinda makes me sad cause i like the SL's but the old liner was completely warn out and i spend so much on 200$ liners that every one talks about...
I got my first pair of SLs in 2022. They work incredibly well with the Oysi medium frames. I’ve experimented with a few boots since then but I always end up back on my SLs as my go-to aggressive skate.
Ivo sold me a pair of SL'S 3 years ago and absolutely love them still, they are very comfortable and durable skates (I mostly grind Prails that probably helps). 100% agree with all the upgrades, waxed laces are a must on any skates and the Reign liners combine very very well with the SL's. I would add upgrading the stock FTL3 antirocker wheels to a set of proper grindwheels with bearings from 5050, Chroma or Sliqx. It will stop rattling sounds and improve the lock on rails and coping.
Prolly my favorite skate ever. I still skate my Korey SLs Interested in the new soul plate Next favorite skate is the gen. Just wish they laced a row higher
The one piece soul slides amazing.. obstacles that I used to find sticky are no longer an issue now. I have to admit though they are pretty damn ugly 😂 I will go with functionality over looks for now xD
Are the Reign liners thinner than the standard? I have an 8 and they're tight around my toes. Back in the day we used to buy a liner one size up and that used to work. Can you still do that, or would an 8 Reign liner be fine?
I bought the 1 piece souls a couple weeks ago here in the us. I had to use a rotary tool to make them fit my 12/13 shell. Be warned you may have to do the same and its tedious and not fun. It has worked well since then but am constantly tightening the soul screws in fear of a failure since there are 3 less screws than before....
love the skate but having a hard time breaking in my stock liners....they hug so tight it makes my feet fall asleep...its been like this for like 6 months so far too. any tips? or should i just swap out the liners...ive heard others having this same problem
take the liner out of the skate, put the liners in the oven for 5 minutes at 80 degrees celcius. put the liners back in and go for a skate. They will become softer and will break in better.
Great and comprehensive breakdown of the Razors SL! If you guys ever do a review on the Razors Cults, be sure to mention the trick where you can cut holes into the cardboard footbed to free up the pressure point caused by the T-nut UFS receivers. It worked wonders for me and now with the medium Intuition V2s, they are one of the snuggest and best fitting skates for me. I have a 278mm Mondopoint and am able to downsize into the US 8-9 Cult shell. The toebox is a bit tight like the Shift but I use a Myfit 3/4 length insole and that combined with the holes in the cardboard footbed changed the whole feel of the skate for the better.
@@Thisissoul Definitely! I learned that trick from Nate, owner of Murdah Militia aka Vintage Roller here on RU-vid. Recommended to skate them one time to create the indention of the T-nut on the underside of the cardboard footbed and then trace the outline and cut it out with a sharp utility knife. I also applied tape over the top to get it to stay in place since it sticks to the T-nut. A total game changer for the Cults!
