Ahahahahaha!!! The close-up of that guy's reaction at 5:36 was priceless! 😂 Even the girls were impressed! 😉 Excellent video my friend! Very cool indeed haha 😎
I Got these skates brought them in August 2018 and took me a couple of months to break them in,i changed my wheels to LED wheels,still having issues with fastening them to get the correct amount of support,took a while getting uses to ,i might change the liners see if that improves for my fit,but they are pretty comfortable, so i stick with them.
heheeeyyy.. very fun video for a very fun pair of skates. I've been skating on these for almost 3 months and they're very comfy. Great for urban skating and you'll eventually break them in to "slide and eventually stick", as you say :). The only issue I had was skating about 30 miles of open road and got some nasty cuts on my shin; might've been bad fastening on my part. Other than that, these are my true skating work horses. Great review!
Nice vid. Just wanted to share some skate boot knowledge. If there is a hockey pro shop in Miami somewhere that works on skates, actually has the tools to do so, they have what the shop guys call a "punch out" device, where it presses a ball into the hot spot, with a dish shaped receptacle on the outside, thus moving that part of the boot out, hopefully alleviating the hot spot in the boot. You can DIY this with wood clamps and golf ball too, which I have done successfully on a pair of my skates. There are YT videos on the DIY method. Cheers man.
Great video. I just bought some Powerslides and they were horrible (unbearable inner ankle pain). I heard you mention them in the video. I should have bought RollerBlades. They always fit me well. Just subscribed to your channel. RB 110's look great. Thanks.
Yes... sometimes when I have a inner ankle pain from a hard shell boot... I switch to a soft boot and then the pressure is off my ankles for a while until I can get back to the hard shell boot again.
I've bought those socks at my local ShopTask. I can indeed recommend these socks to any one whom which may have some issue with blisters. There very thin, non cotton, wicks alot of moisture out. Eventually the sock will become wet but even in sweaty condition liner rubbing wasn't an issue, very minimal. I had a pair for about six months and the socks was still in good condition! But, Sorry the brand name had already been worned off :)
Recommendations please! I haven't skated for years, and only infrequently at that. I want to start again and was thinking of getting the RB 110's since I heard they are quite wide I have extremely flat feet. But I'm concerned these would be too advanced/fast for me with the larger wheels and no heel brake. I'd have to learn T-brake, I'm getting old (45), oh, and I'm pleasantly out of shape (5'9 220). I'd be skating mostly on bike paths in suburbia - most of which have rough coating near me, but not all. Any insight appreciated!
Quick question. How do they fit compared to the Twisters? I found my Twisters quite narrow so I had to go up in size but then the skates were too long for me. I have heard the RB is a wider fit which might be good for me.
For what it's worth, I think Twisters are notoriously narrow. Even the Rollerblade website says specifically with that model to get a half or full size bigger.
@@jamesbond6687 yea I will, they come april 11th! I've always used shoe sizes that are 2-3 sizes "bigger" than my length, because my feet were too wide to fit, for like the last 25 years.. and someone on reddit had nearly identical foot size as me and convinced me to get the "correct" size because these were wide enough LOL. I am scared but we'll see
@@jamesbond6687 Got them, been going around a bit pretty tight fit but seems like it'll loosen up as the liners get worn in. Can really feel the roller blade burn in my legs!
I just bought a pair but haven’t skated for many years. I am having issues with my inner ankle bone. I am not sure if it’s the tongue of the boot rubbing on my ankle but they starting killing me after a few minutes using them. Do you have any info that can help.
My right foot has that imfamous accessory bone, gaved me a hard time when I started out. It's now "tame" I suppose, no pain and is also leather like around that site. What helped me out are those $10 socks. They seem to prevent any feeling of the pressure I get from the accessory bone. Skates - FR
Same shit! Just getting back into skating after 18 years. Bought the Powerslide Imperial 80 that may have been slightly too big and it murdered my navicular. I could skate at the rink once a week for like 2 hours then the skin would just tear off over that bone. Could only skate once a week. Tried punching the boot and Ezeefit booties and still the same. I got this boot today and a Seba rockerable frame. Get to see if I can break my neck before the skates shred my feet this Tuesday. Wish me luck.
Hi i don't know how you managed to skate so good in these skates??? I Brought a pair of these a year ago and been struggling with them the whole year they just don't feel right, Last week i took the frames of them and transferred them with the liners onto my old Roces Boots that i brought in 2013 and That fit me perfectly much better quality boot ,better support and fit and almost half the price of the tri skates and they are perfect now ,i am sorted 😎
Just based on some of the videos I've seen here on RU-vid these look like great urban skates. I imagine for fitness as well, but I don't really get what makes a fitness skate a "fitness" skate. Another good video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-VJkh48JnK0I.html
@@jamesbond6687 Should I train a new move again and again until it works ( but I'll fall often, high risk of injury) or did you just skate and the movement came by itself?
@@Golden2Talon Falling is apart of skating... But you can decrease the amount of falls as long as you learn at your own pace... if you try to rush it... you might learn a little quicker but you might injure yourself quickly... So be careful of that... learning how to skate, then stop, then learning speed, then learning tricks... That is the order I recommend...You can repeat a move over and over again... if you find you are falling too much while performing the maneuver than either take a break 20 or 30 minutes... If that does not work than try tomorrow...
You're half way there, because you recognize your weakness (one foot skating), so you know what to focus on. Your comment is a month old now...how's your one foot and stopping coming along? One exercise I saw in a video that may help is going somewhere flat and smooth (like a tennis or basketball court) and skating around with one skate and one shoe. Alternate feet.
