These were called Soap shoes 20 years ago.

[@jmkride]

Yes! This company is bringing them back with some improvements

[@nickwalk2151]

i love this kind of videos

[@jmkride]

Glad you like it Nick 😁 we’ll make more!

[@nickwalk2151]

@@jmkride ohh that sounds nice

[@chrisb3389]

Nice one boys! My new work role and the new time makes it harder to catch the podcast, but I'm with y'all in spirit. I feel like Jack is hitting his stride in the videos. With the 3 of you (plus Jeff of course), it's a nice variance of skills and strengths. P.S. I finally recorded videos of my failed 180 attempts today and was able to see that I need to try leaning back more. I had thought I was always falling to my right, but the video showed it's more leaning forward (in the direction of my right). We'll see if that corrects it. Keep rolling!!

[@jleegaming2124]

Can we get a tutorial on grinding edges or rails with our freeskates.

[@jmkride]

Yes we’ll look into making that, thanks! 🙏

[@ICON-11-]

Originals were Soap and Salomon 😎

[@Nelsonpadilla947]

I had them both in 1999. I was around 13 years old great times

[@jmkride]

That’s awesome 😎

[@ryandunham1047]

Rolling around at the speed of sound!

[@cubeofcheese5574]

Woah that was even cooler than expected. Also the slomo was fire how'd you get it to look like that?

[@jmkride]

Thanks Cube! And which part of the vid?

[@cubeofcheese5574]

@jmkride idk all the slomo shots just hit different in this one

[@jewzor8137]

I remember my Brother's pair of SOAP shoes back in the day, 2001-ish, and I gotta say I was a jealous little bro! The wax on there and the look was so sick! He used them to practice grinds on self-built PVC pipes attached to all kinds of wooden/metal surfaces. Damn man this is Nostalgic AF for me! I Love it! Never let Aggressive skating die! P.S. You remember Camp Woodward...? And there was one more, Camp/Lake Something Something or another....

[@Fire6]

Loved the video, that was very interesting! (Edit was great also😂) Do you guys feel like you could wear this as everyday shoes or it was little too heavy for it? Kinda want to buy them hahaha

[@jmkride]

Thanks Matthieu! You can definitely wear them as a normal shoe but be careful when you’re going upstairs 👌

[@JivecattheMagnificent]

Bro the editing in this one ahahahah, pure class. 😂👌 Definitely wants to make me give this a try, I've never seen them in the UK before but I'm sure someone is out there with free skates hitting it.

[@jmkride]

There's definitely people out there!

[@JivecattheMagnificent]

@@jmkride Bro at like 3AM I ordered a pair from your German distributer. 😂 Had the page open and thought okay screw it, let's go. 🔥🔥🔥

[@Codyyster]

what skat park is this? epic video loves the grinds and tricks

[@MarcelRules]

Perfect combination 🔥👌

[@jmkride]

We thought so too, definitely using these more often!!

[@ReavoEnd]

Yoo Mattie's grind to double flip stomp was SICK. I was really hoping someone would try that, was not disappointed! I have a pair of the stompers! Can't help but feel like the shoes would perform a little more reliably if the "side sole" of the shoes near the grind plate was the same plastic material as the grind plate itself.

[@jmkride]

Ya, we are definitely curious to see what else we can do when we get more comfortable

[@LokiKeanu]

grindshoes, best shoes for free skating who knew

[@jmkride]

A perfect match haha

[@Shadrack_]

You should do basketball on free skates!

[@jmkride]

We've played before, we need to get it on video

[@Shadrack_]

I ordered mine today and I’m so excited!!!!!! 😊🎉 It’s an early birthday present for myself… 🙃

[@99timewaster]

where are you guys based that is always sunny?

[@jmkride]

San Diego!

[@polloduh]

They should make some of these for Free runners

[@jmkride]

You could totally use these for that!

[@ifedapodavies6507]

Were can i buy them

[@jmkride]

Links are in the description!

[@craigconway4093]

Wow

[@care2425]

Really cool, but it looks as if this combination can bring you to hospital sooner or later.

[@theKiwii]

Any variation of skating can do that to be honest. Best to always do some stretching/warm up, check out the quality of the ground/obstacles ahead of time and take mental notes of any cracks or bumps that you could get stuck on, and wear pads for new or more dangerous tricks. Also recently learned it's better not to skate if you're feeling tired or unfocused...

[@jmkride]

Yeah it’s definitely a different beast (grinding, skateparks in general, etc) - Comes with some risk for sure! All a part of the game though, and protective gear is never a bad call 👍

[@shnigle_shnagle]

@@theKiwii yup, wear your pads and don't be stupid and break your arm like me🥲

[@care2425]

@@theKiwii I always wear the full protection (helmet, elbow-, wrist- and kneepads , but my ankles started to ache when watching this video ;)
