Also that video is VG20!!

I'm delighted with this Review! I'm a non-rollerblader Dad who wanted to buy my first ever pair so I can support my daughter in her new hobby, and bought these exact boots from SkatePro. It was only AFTER paying for them that I decided to look up reviews, so now I'm happy with my choice. Next step for me, once they arrive - learn how to rollerblade!

I think this video was such good advertising that it literally jump the price to $175. I bought them. Good skates. I have high arches so I was good. Hope there will be 2023 update of cheap Skates. I want to have a community here in my town of inline skaters

I think “Dad Skate” for the occasional blade with the kids would be another selling point. Also, your lack of wheel bite might be from that boot grove angle and the general wide width of the soul.

I had a similar experience with the bearings in my razor cults. They definitely got better after the second skate with them. I eventually set it up as a flat with some new wheels and bearings and they fly now.

An experienced artist can paint with any brush lol. This is really cool, I was really surprised at the flex. Could tell you didn't have to force them over to get your royales, I was expecting them to be like the RBs we had that didn't flex at all. Really cool that you could skate them essentially stock. Great sum up, you didn't leave me with any questions. 👍👍👍👍👍

Hey there! First of all, thank you for making these nice and honest reviews 🤙🏻. To answer some questions and give some insight. Anarchy is a brand owned by Statesideskates in the UK. Stateside is ran by skaters and their designers are skaters too. How do I know? I work for the company and I am a aggressive blader too, since 1997. We never really invested a lot into marketing, and our primary goal is instead to make very affordable skates that do not cost a marketing premium. The skate does indeed have good reviews and listening to your video only gives us more motivation to keep doing what we do 🙏🏻. I am personally involved in our product development, and your feedback, along with everyone else is duly noted. We already have some ideas on how to upgrade the skate, but it has to be done without making it more expensive. Again, the price point will hopefully allow more people to get into blading, so it all has to make sende in that regard (while still having a good expierence with the skate). I will continue to follow the channel and comments on these videos. Feel free to text me here or through DM’s if anyone wants to talk or get in touch. Keep rollin 🤙🏻

Proof that equipment doesn't necessarily make the skater. Great vid, Man.

Great review bud 👌🏼 especially with those comparisons!

Your content production is prolific dude, can’t keep up! This is another great video man, super helpful for those with a lower budget or access only to these sorts of brands. Superb review. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Great review 👍 Was always curious about these.

Really interesting, I’ve not seen anyone review cheaper skates. Just shows it’s about your skills and not the equipment 👍🏻👍🏻

congratz on the 1k!!

God damn I remember Anarchy skates back in the day getting ripped on by the cool kids. I remember my mate having a pair and he never lived it down, but funnily enough he could skate better then me with my Remz and my other mate with his Deshis... Just shows skates don't really make that big of a difference, it's whose skating them! Great video 🙌

I’m and OG lighting TRS kind of skater but these are a great update to what I’ve skated in the last

Just bought them a beginner so can’t wait to get started

The wheels/bearings getting faster is probably grease in the bearings breaking in. Also could be the frame/rocker spacers touching/rubbing on the bearing shields, which is common with cheap products like this as they use softer plastics that deform when you tighten the axles. After a while the bearing shields will bend in and the wheels will spin more freely.

Nice. I was lookin for a skate tht wasnt the worst for my son to get introduced to blading before i go out and break the bank on a pair for him lol. I started skating again after 15 year hiatus and im geeked about it.

Thank you for this video. My kid just turned 5 and wants to start skating so I'm trying to find me a cheap set of skates so we can go to the park together. Last pair I had were the K2 Fatty's and Roller lade Troopers back in the late 90s 😂

We know its possible to utilize what we need to go skating, even if the corporate people who own this Anarchy brand aint about the sport and just a business, whatever, if these can get anyone to have a foot in our industry and have a new passion for blading, then i support it because eventually it will end up in support to our industry entrepreneurs in the end, i started out in second hand lighting trs and before that some veraflex from target back in the day...still knocking out these videos dude 😎👍....btw who won the 2 skate contest?

I haven’t skated in 25 years. I bought my son some transformers for Christmas, so I had to get some skates to teach him. These were the skates I bought last night. 25 years ago I skated with the K2 fatty pros.

Cheap skates use thicker grease compared to higher end skates that use less viscous oils. The cheaper bearings also can't be cleaned and re-lubricated the same way that nicer bearings can. The mis-alignment is typical of older models like Salomon, K2, and the original Razors backslide plates. It makes royales feel amazing but torques feel terrible. For a beginner these look awesome! I was always concerned about the quality of the plastics being garbage, but you seemed to skate them just fine. Thanks for the content!

My little I tells me that those would be groove monsters once they are in broken in meester!

hey bro i just ordered them cant wait for friday :D

Now THIS is content! lol good shit man

I'm shocked that you liked them. I thought for sure you were going to complain about everything. Cool idea. Can't wait for the next one thanks!

I miss my k2 fatty pros back in early 2000’s wish I could still find them.

amazing skills and style!!!

Another great cheap upgrade is waxed laces to improve fit if the skates are just a tad too big.

Reaaaaaally good video... I liked it, especially because as someone that just got back to it I felt like buying for the very first time. I didn't know what was good or not and getting someone as good as you are and total unbias talking about a cheap one like this. Mas...congrats on your content!!! To be fair this is one that I was really looking into buying...if I've seen your video before...I would totally do it. Because I am a beginner and it would be nice to spend a bit less at the start. Big Thank you again :)

These look like a great option for kids who are going to grow out of skates quickly too!

Yeah the speed difference is likely the bearings breaking in, similar stuff happens when using cheap bearings on skateboards

great review/ breakdown of these Anarchy skates there! You did look quite comfy skating them in the park. Would you consider going street/stunt with them? Greets!

I keep a pair of these in my trunk with three different thickness liners for when others wants to "try rollerblading" at the skatepark.

Those do looks good maybe a bearing swap and wheel change could help with speed and comfort

wow, these skates have been around forever! Anarchy Skates don't even seem to have a website, but these skates are in most stores ....but I can't find who makes them, its a mystery

I'm thinking of buying these as I can't skateboard atm could I take the two middle wheels out and just ride without them instead of the anti rockers what difference would this make? New to all this✌🏼

I got the panik version of these for my son, and while they where a great skate to get the feel of the aggressive boot style, I believe under punishment they would have buckled, pure because they are multisize adjustable boots (size 3-5). I've just swapped them for the razor gens (same adjustment style) and they are a million time stiffer and feel a lot better built. Myself, getting back in after being out for 20 years, I went for the cults first, but more so because I knew what I was doing, just needed to refresh my muscle memory 🤣

You are the guy that taught me that any trick can be done on any skate 😎 You were wearing my old black/purple TRS lightnings and you did alley-oop topporn on coping. “Better” skates just increase the statistical probability of you landing the trick. How did they slide?

“Not that I’m like, super good or anything…” uhh, excuse me? Did you see the tricks that your doing?

Loving the content dude. They probably had packing grease in the bearings which made them slow to start. We're they serviceable bearings or a 608 ZZ style

O.G. video to watch : VG 8.

Dude you are super good no need to be modest, you could probably rock some $40 Target skates and still make em work. That said I agree for the price point and assuming your budget is super tight and cannot stretch these will work just fine.

Not going to lie but I do miss the grinding plates those were pretty useful

40 year old here contemplating going back to skating again. Would these fit people with wide feet? size 10/EU43 My K2's fell appart.

Hey dude, i have been watching some review videos of skates, i wanna start agressive skating, but don't know woch blades to pick to start, i have seen rwviews of the anarchy, razors, usd, but i am undecided on wich to pick, i am more turned to a pair of cults, what are your recomendations?

😅 so I just recently quit skateboarding after doing it for 10 years I just now recently got me a pair of used aggressive inline skates but I have no idea how to jump into the comfortability of riding them , stopping and getting back into the stride , is there any tips or advice maybe if anybody's in New York City I can get a in person tutorial

Looking at ordering some after not akating for a good 15 years, is it still a thing to buy a size bigger than your shoe size?

Thanks for the review. Had to sell all of my stuff to fight my ex in court to keep the kids after she walked out (pretending she was kicked out). I won full custody, but have absolutely no fun anymore. I have sudden death syndrome (Brugada) and an ICD implant and really need to exercise and enjoy myself. Had a stroke in July and my face doesn't work right anymore. It's some BS. These inexpensive skates keep popping up in searches and I was curious to how they groove. Thanks so much for the review. (I love giving tmi in comments. Free therapy rules. Haha. Stay up homie!)

Bro are u from San Antonio? I'm from uvalde I didn't know anyone else skated around here lol not a popular thing I haven't seen it much besides at rollercade in SA

So I have a question can I skate these inside a roller rink or change the wheels to be able to ride them in a rink

Do you have any suggestions for helmets for 28 inch (71cm) circumference heads? I have super thick locs & I'm having a hard time finding a helmet in this size.

They actually look pretty sic! Those souls look fun!

I'm currently coming back to roller skating after 12 years (Give or Take) The issue is that I'm based in Brazil, these skates are the only option under the Import Taxing Limits, after that price point I have to pay the price + 60% on the total purchase, adding freight, insurance... (thanks BR for supporting sport). I was used to Roll some Razors Genesys (LE red, they were soooo beautiful), do you think they are a good option for me to ride the first year untill I get back to the US and get some better ones?

I have the same size skate and exact boot what size frame and boot insert did you have I'm looking to upgrade my skate the same way

hey im looking at getting some inlines but not sure what im looking for. im just for casual skate, no grinds or what not, are these as good as USD'S or bauer? all i care about is a good quality bearing really...

They're just cheap THEM 908s they actually look pretty cool, I love the soul plate...

You should try the frame on some other boots and see how it performs. You might have discovered the best kept secret in rollerblading!

Also, what size Razor cults shell do you ride?

Nice. Looking for skates for my daughter who's moving to aggressive from fitness style skates.

Are better those or Roce m12?

Remind me of the old dirks

I'm learning to skate on these I ground scored a pair

do i have to change the wheels to grind or no ?

This same or very similar skate is available here in eastern Europe under the name "Worker Aggressive"

At 5:41 it sounds like an A-10 strafed the park.

can you put the Link of wheels? tx

Would these be good enough to skate around the block on

Wanna mod these to fit sl soul plates

Are they good for wide feet?

I honestly dont think $125 is cheap for a pair of skates....I once bought a pair of Kobe Sledge's for £30 at a clearence sale and they where pretty good, im expecting these to be waaaay better

those look like they'd warp in no time from doing backslides and topsides

how did you feel about shock abortion in the heel.

Tried them last year (a friend owns these Skates) and they feel extremly heavy compared to my Aeons. But i think to get into this Sport they perform fairly well and are really good in pricing. Except they are a bit ugly 😂

I started off on a pair on anarchy’s 12 years ago. best decision I made was stealing them off my brother.

Is the weight for one skate or for both skates

Same shell as the air walk and no fear skate.

It used to be 125. 155 now

UFS frame or not?

That is my local skatepark

Why are they 165 now

Not super good he reckons... while killing that poor rail nearly every video 🤣

The thing that sucks is you can’t find this skate for 125 Any more its 175 and above 🤦🏾‍♂️

this is so strange. i mean how can you say that these smaller wheels in the middle are an upgrade ? you basically can't skate at all anymore if those smaller wheels are in there.

Support rollerblading companies not skateboarding cash grabs. I only Support blading nothing skateboarding related i.e. vans and airwalk. These are made by airwalk.

Was that a fart at 05:27 ???

so in other words if you are gonna change everything on the skate the skate is good lol better off buying a better product than to waste money

Oi :)

damn, they went up $50. I hate joe biden land.
