Had the FRX for a couple months. Never quite felt agile enough in them. After some research, I discovered it was because my shell was too big. I was basically sloshing around in them. So I upgraded to the FR1 Deluxe with a downsized shell. Purchased some Endless 90s, and haven't looked back. FYI I have 285mm left foot and 280mm right foot, and went with the EU42. Super tight at first. It took several heat molding sessions, and 'stretching' the liners to get them to mold to my feet.

Guys look like Sizes are running out of stock, when it's likely to get new Nomad stocks?

Carbon boots also feature dual density: extra hard composite bottom, flexible leather-like top.

Endless 100 frames require those extra holes for proper positioning. Otherwise I'd consider the lower end boots.

I used alcohol to clear the name on my howards and leave them clean. Look great and must say the plastic/ fiberglass shell in my opinion are really top quality 🤘 thanks for the video

Would love an update now you've had a chance to skate these How would it affect the fit of the twister? Ive read good things about the twister liner but would the nomad liner change the fit?

I don't understand why you guys are recommending some skates which you haven't even worn. Like the IQON CL15. You appeared not to have worn it or even know if it was rockered immediately, which anyone who actually uses a skate would know.

Hey guys, I'm rediscovering Inline Skates with 36 and am currently struggling with sizing. Bought a pair of FRX and a Zoom Nova, both of which leave me with pretty painful pressure spots on my knuckles so I can't skate for days. Any advice? Is this normal? (I gotta say I've been skating quite long after getting them) Any afvice whats a good starting time if you hadn't properly skating for years?

Who thought black/ white would be good looking? 🤮 Visual diarrhea.

Regarding the gap on the 4x80 k2s, thank you for pointing it out. It bothers the hell out of me.

I am thinking about buying an FR FR3 skate. Should I get that, or is there something better?

Really perfect video guys. Concise is better than overly verbose. The only downside is now you need to to proper (concise) reviews on some of those high budget rec. skates.

nice review.... always goor to hear some expert opinions!

People still go “Boy, I’d break my ankles.” I’m like I REALLY DOUBT IT. 😂😊 But it is possible. So be careful.

Oh I suffer. I’m sufferin’. 😊 But I got my doozies.

Fffuuunnn.

I've started out with the Aeon 60 Basic - Worst skate i tried so far in my book, i'll recommand the ECHO for that prize instead. When I got my Them Pat Ridder I began to skate, with the Aeon 60 I began to doubt if blading was something for me.

I tried spacers back in the day and they never fit right. So I just would crank down the axle nut until the wheel started binding, then very gradually backed the nut off until it would spin freely. Also this is hardly a new invention, depth gauges have been around since before electronics were invented. Also that little square rod that sticks out the back of your calipers is exactly that, a depth gauge. So this gadget is redundant.

i have flying F6s which is a dual size 41-42. Is new flying eagle X7 series boot single sizing or dual?

IMO 70mm wheels would be perfect. Still low to the ground like 60 but more speed thanks to the +10mm extra while altogether not looking too bulky. Great idea thou as not everyone wants or needs to do hardcore tricks with aggressive skates and the occasional jump and slide is enough.

All very nice, solid Skates

@locoskates - Is the Flying Eagle X7F a wider boot than the F5S Eclipse? I love the Eclipse - left boot fits like a glove, but my right foot is slightly wider and cramps after a long ride. Would appreciate the insight, thank you!

Isn't RB twister xt is dual sizing? Flying eagle x7 is singular sizing

This is one of the few content on the FR SL Freeride. Is it cause, as stated, that stock is still extremely limited for anyone to get their hands on it? I also wish there was more unbiased content on the Sam Crofts like this, not made by powerslide. I have my reservations about powerslide's build quality and want to be proven wrong.

I just got some 909s last week and attached an 80mm frame. Added a heel lift and it feels almost perfect - I think I need a slightly higher heel still!

I bought the 90mm version, then bought an FR2-3x 110mm frame and i really enjoy it. I would have bought the Lightning 110 if they weren't white lol, no way i'm buying white skates.

Anymore Wizard Base coming or were they super limited?

worse skates i've ever had, shattered 2 sets of shells in less than 6 months, just rolling a small pump track. powerslide did replace the first set, not the second. major design flaw in the front structure of the shell. 30 years of skating only shells to break on me.

Ooh, you got the neo 1 in! Can't wait to hear more about that.

I think one unique selling point for Crofty's hc evo is that the frame is an 80mm frame but it's a bit longer, making it low for control but long enough for someone with a larger foot - side note, i think this is the first time anywhere i've been able to see that there are cross braces on the bottom side of the frame between the wheels, so i imagine that would aid quite significantly in its stiffness and responsiveness. No idea why no one seems to have mentioned that before. Feels like PS engineering and marketing need to sit closer together perhaps!

Wow Powerslide the owners almost all inline business, indeed Zoom such a gift through out these days of crazy inline comesback..gd1 Peace!..im still usin oysi.

Interesting that there were no softboots here.

Twister XT for me💪👌 Mega comfy, fit like a pair of slippers. No skimping in cost on the wheels or bearings either. Full on moneys worth of skate. The lightening looking like a S+1 though 👌

Why these guys sound posh af?

Ive only really had RB 80 Pro and now HC Evo with Endless LR 4x90. I love the Evos to bits for the design and more affordable price in carbon skates tier.

What size advance wizard frames does Harry skate? Please and thank you.

Great video 🥰 Can't wait for the FR Neo 1 review!

Got myself the FRX skates after a recommendation from your previous video about skates under $200. I am incredibly pleased and very grateful for the recommendation. Now I'm looking for something more professional and high-end, waiting for the FR Neo 1 review

Really wish the new FR Neo 80 Intuition would come out already. That's what I'm holding out for as I've loved the FR 1 80mm with regular liner. If I was richer, I'd absolutely get that Wizard Base High boot though. It's beautiful

I'm sorry, did I miss something about the them? '80s? They have individual shell sizes?

#1 PS Storm, best boot ever made, more people should try, boot is high end the rest "budget"... Price is great for what you get! Fits very similar to Zoom but wraps around the foot nicer with flexy upper, Fatboy liner, 260mm 4x84 rockered (or 3x110 flat) frame, best 165 mounting on the market... #2 PS Next Charcoal 90, fantastic versatile skate, flat or any rocker on a long and low 90 #3 UFR 90 Intuition, buy soulplates and change from "wizard" to agressive 😮👏🏻 4# FE X7D (90/100), that frame is as good as one from Endless while the whole skate costs only a little more than frame only 😳 #5 Next Mustard Intuition NN Sumo 😂 Oh, wait that is custom...

5:37, to practice wakeboarding you need a boat or at least a membership for the cable park, at this point, price of the equipment is the least of your concern. The analogy might work for kiteboard though (kind of).

nice review guys. My mondo with socks is 27cm. Which size of twister xt should i go for as perfomance fit? As u mentioned it is is single size shell.

no love for triskates? 💔🤣

"I just said the word R I P P I N G" "Yeah man shred, yeah" "mmm shred"

Do you know when are you realese a video "review" about the FR Skates Neo 1 ? I'm scearching for new pair of inline skates, this one look great but i'm waiting for the review from you or other skaters.

I really liked the idea of the Aeon 80 but the 8-9 is just a little too small even with 2nd Skin (no wraps), 45 strap removed. Is the Intuition Wizard liner thinner or equal to 2nd skin? I should have tried that before getting rid of them.

These videos are really helpful. This channel is my first stop when I want to learn about a skate

I have always said my second favorite liner of all time is the USD base, that came in my Aeons several years ago. I image its the same, or essentially the same as the one in the zoom. It is ever so slightly behind my intuitions for my favorite, but it is close. closer than it should be for a $25 vs $220 liner (US Dollars). I have tried a lot of liners in search of the perfect one too. Reigns, RL1s, almost all of the power slides, them stock, razors, M12s stock, Standards. Love the USDs, perfect amount of padding and good heel lock padding in the back.

Good one. My number one is easily the RB twister XT, sizing is perfect. Thems with individual sizes, similar RB? No way
