Just ordered some for my 14 year old’s bday. I’m so stoked for her to have some “real skates”. I have the FR1. We’re gonna be tearing it up, father/daughter!

[@Topher2024]

I own 2 pairs of the Twister XTs. Stock with the 80mm and 90mm setup with Endless Frame... BEST BOOT out there hands down... no break in period nonsense... Fits like a glove. Thanks Rollerblade... I still have yet to fall. Cheers!!!

[@GaseousStranger]

When you do fall, they hold up very well (I have experience lol). They really improved the protection around the buckle from the 2020 model. Love the quality and consistent design enhancements. Couldn’t recommend these boots more. I have both the 2020 and 2022 110 3WD. This new model has held up to 1200 miles of hard city skating so far and feels brand new still

[@DarkestNight99]

Fits like a glove yes but the “no break in process” is false, as a twister owner who loves their skates the break in can be rough

[@darkoale3299]

I love my Twisters but they definitely have a break in period. Some of it was my fault as I was tying them too tight on top. It's still a fantastic skate though.

[@ob882]

@@darkoale3299 after seeing some cuts near my ankles I've recently came to this conclusion too. Its my first pair of inlines so I guess i dont need to have them as tight as possible.

[@kenmastersmaster]

No break in if you size up 1 and don't have flat feet

[@noahwheatley3727]

Dude I used to watch you when I was younger and was so happy to see that you're still uploading. I'm heading to Toronto this week and am bringing my blades due to you.

[@floridastacker]

Happy to see you here in Florida, Bill. I pre-ordered the RB Lightning 110 that ships end of month. Those Twisters look terrific. Thanks for the video.

[@falkomatzler271]

Twister XT boot plus endless 4x90 frame but using the 4 80mm hydrogen wheels is my new dream setup for pumptracks and urban. Fast, stable and super agile.

[@CatzzSkatesFamily]

How much that cost total? I got K2 V02 S.

[@falkomatzler271]

​@@CatzzSkatesFamilyApprox. 260,- EUR back in 2022 (Germany) for Twister XT. They vary in price significantly. And another 200,- for the endless frames. The hydrogen wheels came with the Twister XT. And I added a heelbrake for 20,- for stopping in crowded and tight spaces, like the slim edge of some pumptracks where lotsa kids line up and wait. That one's ugly but priceless. Oh, and switching from a softboot (K2) to a hardshell is a gamechanger as well.

[@maddie23578]

Loved watching this. Many thanks! ❤️

Best shelf on YT lol !!! I wish I had 1 out of this shelf!!

superb skates :)

I've been looking at picking up the Twister for several weeks, possibly , this video just about sold me. Solid first impressions Bill! Thank you

If you've got big feet I would definitely try them on first..

Always thought on getting a twister, lets see... maybe next summer. Nice review, Bill. PS: that reflection shot was 🔥🔥🔥

Skilled camera angles on the angular Twisters🌪

[@nielsen8100]

Love it.

[@Sstrictlyrude]

Love to see you having fun in Miami Bill. Hope to see a bentway session on ice weather permitting. Those Twisters look comfy and of course with the Endless Frames. Also shout out to that Solo-Botique shop. If you're in Canada and not near another store give em a browse online.

[@jerviasjohnson700]

I literally almost bought these the other day. I opted for the cruiser instead, since it’ll be my first pair. It’s supposed to arrive today! 🔥

[@saturnz13]

Hows the progress?

[@jerviasjohnson700]

@@saturnz13 It’s been good, I started off doing in-line skating two or three times a week for the first month. At this time it was still cold, so I bought some Sure Grip Fames and started indoor quad skating as well. At this stage, I can decently spin in a circle, hold a manual pose, and skate backward, but if I go too fast, I’ll fall. Now that it’s warmer, I’ve got plans starting next week to go back out on the in-lines with a friend. From there, only time will tell!

[@dpsglitch9705]

Thanks for this video. I’m looking at getting back into blading. These blades look like a top secret ufo!! Buying these for sure come payday.

[@nigelbrown2274]

nice review, as always....

[@RichHayterSkater]

These look very nice, Bill! I always feel spritely on a set of flat 80s! I always preferred the look of the RB boot to the original Twister, but these look sweet! Loved the reflective footage with your Endless frames! 👌

[@shadowthesun8209]

i think i recognise this music fro the mind amend channel, love it! i look forward to saving up for some endless frames and finally being part of the club!

[@garys.2291]

I have the Twister 3x110's, great for trail riding, and the Maxxum Xt 4x90 for urban, similar to that setup. 80 for me is too small, i prefer 84-90 for street riding. Anyway, great video as always.

[@terrablader]

dam nice skates love them, your a strong skater solid

[@joehiatt1992]

Been a rollerskater since younger,just got into inline and bought the Xt,s and Fr1 84,s and Endless 90 frame with 90mm hydrogens,just mounted the Endless on the Xt,s,gonna try this weekend,the Xt,s remind me of the stealth plane with the square lines,haven't tried the Fr,s yet either.

[@Ka17788]

Hey, which one did you prefer the XT or the FR1? 😊

[@TheRollingRaptor]

My god. The reflection on those Endless Mercury frames! Woah. I've got the ARC Mercury waiting in my cellar, but the weather in Belgium's just too shitty to get them out on the road. Maybe I've got to go to Miami too. 🙂 Those RB Twisters sure are a lot of fun. I do love my Twister Edge X, though I didn't like the stock liner. But the design of those things... So awesome. Somehow, they look more aggressive than aggressive skates. And refined at the same time.

[@jimiwills]

Nice

[@Snifffski]

I love my Twisters (3x110) and I'm getting twitchy wallet for the newer model, which I believe is slightly wider.

[@matthaffner6848]

My first pair of skates. Love the cyberpunk aesthetic. Also love the Cyberpunk endless frame colors they do. Unfortunately for me, I have wide feet and sized up, which didn't work out long term as I needed a better fitting pair of skates.

[@theskatingsiren]

Bill!!! What great shots and the skates look amazing! 👏So happy to know you're here in Miami. Hope I can get out there today or tomorrow to say hello. 😎

[@albertherz]

will miss you from Toronto

[@AyaEgbuho]

Nice video❤

[@MrMann-gt1eh]

Just bought some for my daughter’s 14th bday! I have FR1s with the Deluxe Intuition liner and I love them but she needed some “real skates” with some response.

[@andrewcao4481]

The subtle “how dare they” to the no skating took me 5:55

[@GaseousStranger]

Been running this boot with the endless 90/110 ES for a while now. Smooth as butter.

[@Topher2024]

agreed!!!! Great Setup!!!

[@HeadNtheClouds]

How are the liners? Are they comfy right out of the box? I had trouble in the past breaking in the liners on the old twisters, I found the Powerslide liners to be more comfortable. Have they changed since the old twisters of 2015?

[@GaseousStranger]

@@HeadNtheClouds There is a break in period, but for me it was short. Felt good by end of first session or two

[@SaccoBelmonte]

I've got two pairs, one with 5x80 frames. the other with 4x80 rockered Flying Eagle "Drift" frames. Definitely the best from my collection. Those are my preferred ones to go on the ice too. The "Transformer" ice blades match well with them.

[@Topher2024]

you can get these on ICE?!?!?!? .... #add to cart!!! where do I find them? Link?

[@SaccoBelmonte]

@@Topher2024 Yes you can, You need to install ice blades. There are various brands but basically the same. I look it up as "Inline ice blades" and I have some "Powerslide Sabre 4", "Transformer ice blades" and some chinese made with "batman" logos on them (lol)...they all work really fine and I'm into all sort of styles.

[@SaccoBelmonte]

@@Topher2024 There are the "Powerslide Sabres 4" and the "Transformer inline ice blades", I've got both plus some chinese "Batman" labelled frames (lol) and they all work wonderfully.

[@freeskateacademie203]

Nice vidéo

[@embazle]

Loving those shelves to house your skates. It clearly shows the love and pride and legacy of your skating journey. I appreciate that. I grew up rollerblading at the age of 4, 40 now, got bac into it with the basc roller blade boot not knowing where my skill set would be. To my surprise I recalled everything and realized I needed a more advanced skate. Prior to the purchase I was enjoying how wizard skating became a thing, and the investment it took to incorporate all the right frames, wheels, and boots separately. For the price point I didn't think I was ready, till after skating I re-realized my love for skating again was hidden for many years, definitely worth investing into a skate that meets the skill. With all that being said, and the wizard style peaking my interest, do you find the Twixter XT potentially satisfying both regular and wizard skating?

[@9jhlikesmusic9]

Hey Bill great review! Would be really interested for u to review intuition liners, they are game changers when u put it into this skate.

[@sirius_revenge]

I've discovered soft boot combos work so well for my feet. Hard shells always cause major rubbing issues. Ended up with SEBA (Trix, Trix2 and Highlights) Most are so comfortable. Would love to find a well fitted, comfortable hard, yet light weight boot. Carbon fiber is great, but so expensive!

[@CatzzSkatesFamily]

I only skated on soft boots. So you prefer soft boots over hard boots?

[@sirius_revenge]

@@CatzzSkatesFamily yes. I've tried multiple different skate brands, all their hard shells create pressure points on my ankles and cause sores and bruise the bone. Soft shells prevent this, but they never support as well. Super comfortable though.

[@darkoale3299]

@@sirius_revengeThat's nutty. My first pair were soft boot and the lack of support after 2 months made them unbearable.

[@sirius_revenge]

@@darkoale3299 Really interesting to hear. I'm a street skater, so hard boot was recommended for doing jumps and tricks. I find SEBA soft shell so good. I love jumping stairs and rails. I find the part hard cuff flexible and locks my foot in well. Never causes any rubbing or pressure points. Also good for long distance skating. Will have to try out some more brands. A very expensive hobby to try out skates and find they aren't good for the foot!

[@Tiewas]

i just got some rb pro x's and immediately broke my leg. 10/10 blades. ill be out of the cast this week too. so back to blading i go.

[@Arirmar]

I bought a pair of those last summer. I frickin’ love em. After not blading for 15+ years, it felt like I never stopped. Sucks about the broken leg. Get well!

[@Tiewas]

@@Arirmar thank you

[@Metadosis1]

i just love your channel brother! keep it alive please! Vibes Bill

[@Morrado]

It definitely needs more boot/frames colors and some custom kits

[@kenmastersmaster]

I've been telling Bill to review these since covid. Better late than never i guess😂

[@Papumisteriosoo]

I am a big fan of you bro and I have to tell you that you are identical to Colonel Hans Landa from Inglourious Basterds🔥

[@greatoutdoorsgear7538]

how is the fitment true to size? would sizing down be a problem? thanks

[@wildsonforever9784]

I have twister with 3x110 from 2019, problem I have is they are very narrow. How’s the new models?

[@BryantAvant]

Do you find power stops harder to execute with larger wheels? Maybe it's because I'm 6'3" or maybe it's the 110mm I use but power stops are the one thing I have trouble with.

[@grantwithers]

omg bill went from snow to miami

[@MrDalon37]

Hey Bill greetings from Texas! Do you usually skate with a rocker or flat set up. I’m new to inline skating using FR3 flat set up and doing power stop has been difficult for me. Just wondering if going rocker would make sliding easier. Any input is greatly appreciated. Thank you 🙏🏽

[@carissametcalf4178]

Wondering this as well

[@grantwithers]

The cyberblades

[@MrPanbimbo]

I had to sell my white twister edge’s just cuz it didn’t fit well, highest size they go is like 13-13.5. They were fast and fun but hurt my feet too much. Wish they made them in bigger sizes

[@bladeshred01]

The twister design reminds me of a futuristic Oxygen Argon for those who remember that skate

[@oise08]

How do these compare to your FR1's?

[@iangriffiths5379]

Hey Bill. Great Vid, as always. Does the XT beat the Crossfire?

[@damlayldz6629]

Heyy i just want to ask i have rollerblade pro now im gonna change this but i can not decide. Is this rollerblade xt good as much as rollerblade pro

[@igors634]

Could you compare these twisters with FR1 please?

[@andrewjohnson1253]

What would you consider a city crosser ? Skate ? I want some that I can ride up to 20 miles on a bike / rec path path . But also something I can do some stairs and jump the gaps?

[@karolmigo2571]

what camera do you use? very informative video. thx

[@leetnux]

Anyone has experience with regards to how the ≈350g heavier weight of the Twister boot feels like compared to a carbon boot for urban skating? Is it a noticeable decrease in agility?

[@ericbernardi8116]

Not much... Major factor for weight and agility is frame and wheel size... Carbon boots are more reactive and have better power transfer but no shock absorbtion. I'd say carbon is mainly good for slalom, speed and marathon skaters... For tough city skating hard shells are best. RB Twister and PS Next have the best power transfer, upgrade with an Intuition liner and they perform very well + nicer for jumps, stairs and bad surface 😊

[@kokainakralj]

for urban, u actually wont a bit more weight. U hit the rock, u go on rough roads, u do stair bashing, and this plastic handles falls much better than carbon. Twister is great boot, I do have them but I skate my FR's more, wouldn't consider carbon boot for my style of intense urban riding at all.

[@rcppop3090]

They look like something Masterchief would wear on Halo. I’m gonna paint mine olive drab green 😂

[@Topher2024]

sooo true!!!!

[@Legko111]

what kind of glasses do you have?

[@jessa.3857]

Does anyone have these XT and RB Pro X skates and tell me if theyre bettter or not? The old twister edge x skates were too narrow for me and the rb pro x too wide. Im hoping these xt skates are the perfect middle for me.

[@Daigham23]

I know you don't like going lower than 80mm but, does the chassis allow for 76mm in your opinion?

[@ericbernardi8116]

You can always put smaller wheels on a frame 😉

[@Daigham23]

@@ericbernardi8116 that has not always worked for me, I've run I to issues when taking sharper turns. The edge of the frames have touched the pavement/rink floor and the momentum carries you really fast if you aren't paying attention to recover.

[@ssfogel]

Do you prefer 84mm or 90mm for street riding? I’m no longer in the city so I’m leaning towards endless 90 frames for longer trail rides without giving up much agility.

[@DashDrones]

Maybe it's my wide feet, but the 2020 twister edge destroyed my ankles and feet. Are these an improvement?

[@skyhymitch]

I have a similar issue with wide feet and I use the FR/Seba line as a result. They are known to fit wide feet.

[@DashDrones]

​@@skyhymitchdefinitely have the fr1 310s now, quality skates

[@Martz604]

I wanted to love these Twister XTs but they cause pain near my navicular bone below my ankle. I think I could use a heat gun to expand the shell there but I don't like needing to modify things in that way and risk damaging the skate.

[@shiftcmdoh]

Got the 2020 edge x and had to move on to the FR1s and never looked back. Now they're wall decor it's a shame cos there was something special about em

[@ericbernardi8116]

Nope... Had the Maxxum edge and tried the Twister xt, same boot, same ankle pressure 😅 shame, as it looks so dope...
