Honest Reviews - Them Skates Street Frame

[@nathanhadley6411]

Nice to see a review where there reviewer actually used the product and put it through its paces. Most reviews these days seem like the skater skates them for 5 mins in a perfect park then talks about them for 20 minutes without a scratch on them. Well done sir, appreciate you putting in the work for an honest review.

[@wheelsceneblading]

That's one of the reasons I started doing the videos. I won't make a video unless I've used the product for at least a month. I don't understand how else you are meant to know if they hold up or fall apart.

[@wheelsceneblading]

Ps. I've had to strip them apart and clean all the mud out of them at least three times. Scottish street spots are grimey!!!

[@RageForSeven]

the only way to test gear is by skating it in the streets #streetforlyfe

[@cmousdale]

Solid skating! and with you on that thud sound. They sound great. I've left my bolts as they are, as i like that kkkssssshhhhh sound.

[@wheelsceneblading]

Reminds me too much of Senate metal grind plates. Plastic sound all the way for me!

[@chilli-iceolive-abode2447]

What a beauty of a frame, love how solid it looks. Cheers for the review!

[@fiditunka]

thanks for the good review! good to know, that they are capable anti frames.

[@mozza123abc]

Solid review my man. I've been riding these for a couple of weeks now and have to agree with everything you mention here. I personally like the spacer at the moment but I'm yet to take them to a really grizzly ledge so maybe I'll switch it up when that happens. Keep at it man, looking forward to the next review 🧡

[@Stu108]

Really enjoy the no nonsense reviews. Cheers

[@alexwild1435]

Those clips were great, nicely filmed too 👌

[@christfollower575]

Im an older dude too 34,i need to step my game up you killed it👍

[@wheelsceneblading]

Can't believe you just called me older! Don't you know 37 is the new 25?!?!

[@4everhumbl36]

Awesome review bro! You’re prolly one of my favorite personalities in blading right now! 💪🏻🙏🏻💯

[@wheelsceneblading]

Keep flirting like that and you're gonna make me blush

[@vtecnerd]

Thanks for the great review! Which anti-rockers are you using in these? As others have said I really liked that you skated the frames hard and really put them through their paces before a review.

[@wheelsceneblading]

I use Sliqz. They are rock hard and you can put bearings in them.

[@RollersReturn]

Great review and great skating dude 👏🏼

[@audreyskateinfinite9068]

My symetrics frames came warped or they were meant that way. Its like a 3 wheel rocker.

[@Verta33]

SO SMOOTH DUDE>>> Wrex I and eyes do not like... but shows the dedication!

[@wheelsceneblading]

Not sure what you mean, but thanks! Haha!

[@Verta33]

@@wheelsceneblading just meant I don’t like wrecks nor does my eyes seeing them 😉 I was being to obscure with my words... but I enjoy your moves!!

[@dustinvaldeztv]

How are the THEM frames holding up? You still enjoying them?

[@twgskate]

what wheel side did you use when you tried flat?

[@twgskate]

*size obviously lol

[@chinobean3555]

so overall what would u say about them 909s? im thinking about getting the aeon lomax or maybe the clarkes i dont know yet. im trying to get my brother to start skating and it wouldnt having an extra pair of skates?

[@wheelsceneblading]

I prefer the 909 to the Aeon

[@chinobean3555]

Thanks brother

[@allestic]

Great review! Can they fit 60mm wheels or higher?

[@wheelsceneblading]

I know they can fit 58 flat. Possible 60mm anti but you may need wheel wells on your soul plates

[@kevinchow6377]

Great skating and solid review. How would you match it up vs. the Roces stock frame?

[@wheelsceneblading]

Cheers, babe. Definitely a lot less chance of wheel bite than the Roces frame, but the Roces frame is lighter, cheaper and easier to get hold of. The Roces stock frame is criminally underrated.

[@kevinchow6377]

@@wheelsceneblading I reckon it’s the stock frame syndrome. Roces frame has aluminum frame spacers, bridge supports, and great plastic. A bit heavy but just suck it up and jump! I’m still curious about these but skeptical as a flat frame. Seems like a good anti frame

[@wheelsceneblading]

@@kevinchow6377 the split is huge. The split on the Them Street Frame is exactly the same as the Aeon frame and the H block is the same size. It's like Jon and Kyle took their favourite aspects of the Symmetrics, Aeon and Ground Control frames and merged them.

[@1234103]

I am wondering about the size. I wear 45 European scale shoes, my foot length is 28.5cm. Do you suggest medium or large? You say you have size large, and what is your foot length?

[@wheelsceneblading]

I’m 28 and wear a medium

[@wheelsceneblading]

Sorry, medium boot, large frame

[@kinnonstatttoos7635]

Hi bud, you got an instagram mate? Looking to get into skating again and looking to get a pair thanks mate

[@wheelsceneblading]

[@stubear]

Are you on a large 909 boot?

[@wheelsceneblading]

I ride a size medium 909 shell. I am a size 10UK show. The medium shell with the stock liner killed my toes, but the V2 Intuition liners frees up enough space, although I do still get rubbing on my toes once in a while.

[@MK-xw1rp]

Are they true to size that’s my question

[@wheelsceneblading]

Yes

[@RageForSeven]

from experience, you will keep on eating through your soul plate. better stock up

[@wheelsceneblading]

I skate a lot of ledges and I feel like the soul plates last well. I've been on the grey 909 for months and they're still going strong.

[@RageForSeven]

@@wheelsceneblading I destroyed mine in 100 royales on ledges (a bit gritty but wax was used)

[@bobbobertbobberton1073]

They are just a pair of plastic skates, its impossible for them to be as AMAZING as everyone says. There is absaloutely nothing revolutionary or innovative about these skates other than the liners. This trend setting aesthetic and coolness is endemic of the skate industry. A new skate comes out and it looks really cool and people hype it up so badly that they pay extortionate prices for a basic plastic skate. Them fucking suck in relation to how much they cost, they are literally the worst skate ever made in relation to the price.

[@wheelsceneblading]

These ones were under the £200 mark. The skates you are referring to are 909s, which are completely different. Also, I would argue the self destructing Razors Shift are significantly worse. Their sole purpose is to switch frames easily and all they did was fall apart on impact.

[@bobbobertbobberton1073]

@@wheelsceneblading The 909's are really no better than these, better liner at most.

[@wheelsceneblading]

@@bobbobertbobberton1073 I’ve skated both and I could argue the 909 feels and looks better

[@bobbobertbobberton1073]

@@wheelsceneblading Yeah but to what degree... can you honestly say they are worth the money?

[@wheelsceneblading]

@@bobbobertbobberton1073 I wouldn’t pay the amount that the new collab and pro skates cost, no, but the stock skate is VERY responsive and hugs the foot like no other shell I’ve ever known. When you pull those laces the skate literally grips your foot.

[@JustAnotherBlader]

the whole spacer thing is weird, my frames came with no such thing, did they get rid of it?

[@wheelsceneblading]

Possibly.
