I been doing some research on skates to get me around brooklyn, and i got to say. You did a mighty fine job explaining these skates you're a great salesman. I'm going to invest in the FR1 90.

This video just saved me $100! I was about to get the FR1s and decided to look up the differences and after watching this decided I didn't really need any of the features beyond the FR3's ratcheting powerstrap. Great video!

[@Atmos_Glitch]

Yeah I would have gotten FR2s or 3s but I figured I might aswell get FRXs since I could always just upgrade certain parts I might not enjoy like the strap

[@MrJay3333]

Dude this was an amazing review!! You went pretty in detail and took your time to show us the little extra quirks each skate has, really awesome man really appreciated. Thank you for taking your time to make this video. Really helped me few more confident about my spontaneous buy of the FR2s. First ride felt a little uncomfortable but hopefully that’s just breaking them in. Anyways great job awesome video keep it up 👍🏽

You should make the same type of videos with the other brands flying eagle, rollerblade, etc. Or comparisons.

This video helped me so much! I was shopping for skates for my S/O and upgrade him a bit. He grew up skating, fell out of it with family life and is looking to get back in. This video helped me so much to decide which skates to get him. So much important info. Nothing left out. Thank you so much for this! Just ordered from your store.

Such a nice review! I like the part where you compare both frames FR1, FR2. The only one who did this

[@Mike_Vee]

Thank you so much! I recently purchased a FR3 but got a FR2 instead (awesome upgrade) and I wanted to figure out what the differences are. Your explanation is extremely helpful and enlightening!

[@Inmoveskates]

Congratulations! The main would be extruded frame that is really better, stronger. More durable wheels. Heel antishocks instead of antishock insole. Better heel buckle. Cuff screws.

Thank very much for such a great review of the FR Skates R series. Your review is very useful and informative on every aspect of the skates. I own the FR R3 3-110 mm skates. I plan to buy new frames with the 4-80mm for the slalom skating. Can you mount the UFS frames to the boots as well for the aggressive skating?

[@ashuri8184]

I’m wondering the same lol

[@Inmoveskates]

Yes, you can mount UFS frames to aggressive boots(they are UFS mount boots). UFS - flat mounting. In FR3 your frames and boots are not UFS, they are 165mm mounting.

[@damecado7407]

I bought my FRXs from Sonic a couple of weeks ago (I'm the guy from Woodside), after struggling with some cheap Target skates. Best decision ever. I'm way more confident in them. Once I solidify my balance, and drag and power stops, I'll be joining those Wednesday Night Skates!👍🏼

[@lonelyberg1808]

@@HotFiya05 oh ok

[@damecado7407]

​@@lonelyberg1808 Another update. I never quite got my single leg balance on the FRXs,as they were a bit too big for my feet. I literally had to wear an extra pair of thick socks just to fill the liner, and there was still too much space between the liner and shell. Plus being flat-footed with knock knees, I heavily pronated because I could never get the boot tight enough. This of course was making me unsure in my skating. Just bought the FR1 Deluxe Intuitions literally to the limit of my foot size (28cm, EU 42) and heat molded to fit perfectly. The ankle straps ratcheting really holds everything into place, so there's less movement in my ankles.

[@warrenbrett3758]

How does the frx 80 compare to the Seba E3 80. Would they be same as they used to be the same brand?

[@Inmoveskates]

Thank you! That’s cool that we have some new info 😁

[@inlinemonkey8477]

Just got my pair of FR2 Skates and probably the best purchase I’ve made. I’m an intermediate-advanced skater and this just shows that the more you pay, the better the quality. At first glance the FR2s seemed that they would not fit. Very hard shell, high ankle liner, tough laces. It seemed suspicious till I slipped them on, keep in my mind I have an EEE foot, which is wider than the widest foot width! I managed to skate 3 hours with some arch pain that increased greatly towards the end of course. That being said, from experience I am probably lacing up too tight, which is the reason why most wide footers get the arch pain. Anyways, that was my review for wide foot people because the skate is stated to be suited for wide feet. (Narrow foots can work with the skate too! The only thing I am a little shaky on is that the ankle strap is higher than most skates, and with that being said, powersliding will be a bit weird. I was hearing clicking sounds and couldn’t figure if it was the ankle strap coming loose or somehow tightening from pressure, but it probably came loose. This happened a few times and wasn’t too much to worry about as the skate was still strapped on well. So doing other awkward movements, perhaps mohawks or something else is a bit awkward. As an extra, this things destroy crappy terrain, shock absorption is pretty good and that probably comes from the wheels looking to be a good PU and 85A hardness.

[@edgar1013]

I couldn't have found a more informative video than this one. FRX80 is calling my name!

[@ignaciob2467]

Thank you very mucho for your reporter about FR series. I have a pair of FR3 80 mm. they are super confortable. I think FR SKATES has the morst confortable boots in the markets, dont you think?

[@greatvedas]

This is the best review and detailed explanation of FR skates! Thanks a ton for this amazing content!

[@patrickcomparan7023]

Exactly what I needed. Ended up settling on the FR2 since I found a good sale and, quite frankly, I'm not going to be subjecting the skates to gigantic drops and crazy speeds. Thanks so much for putting this together!

[@vodkanarancs1]

Hi! 20 years ago I was a very good skater. Ice, aggressive, street, I loved it. But that was then. So now I decided to grab a new pair and level up my cardio. Is the fr1 worth the extra money compared to the frx - which was my first choice, since I'm not rich unfortunately - considering I'll need to relearn almost everything, but in a few months time I'd like to bomb through the city like I just stole something 😅? Hope someone still reads this

[@Inmoveskates]

Hello. You can use FRX or FR1 for freeride city skating. In FRX compared to the FR1 there will be not enough heel support (due to strap instead of buckle - you can buy this as a part or just choose FR3) and there can be some issues with axles from time to time (stripped 1st and 4th axles if not carefully taken off). The frame is budget, so in theory for high jumps and too many skating days - best to take the frame that goes with FR2 and FR1. However, I haven't seen frame issues lately (there were up to 2018 from time to time as it's not an extruded frame in FRX). Wheels and bearings are okay, anyway, you will change them later once they are done (any wheels will be done after around 10-50 active skating sessions, it depends). Any bearings afraid of water+sand. The only thing that can be changed in FRX later is the mounting system. In FR1 it's the most advanced and strong, but this is needed only if high weight or/and really high jumps, so really extreme use (however, haven't seen that you can break the FRX mounting system anyway). Total - you will have a lot of small pluses with the advanced model, but with a budget one, you can do the same skating. :)

Couldn't have asked for a better review of this. Thank you!

Hi thinking of buying how are they so far?

[@IshmaelSimpson]

@@alwaysthankful1840 Hello! They're worth every penny. They're quiet, smooth, roll nicely, but you'll have to get used to the comfort (they take a bit of time to break in but once you have, they're golden). They're durable as hell too, and are built with quality. They're night and day in comparison to my previous skates.

[@julietafiorellaborghi401]

Best review to finally understand the different features of the FR line. Great explanation!! I just think you forgot to mention FR1 frame is not rockeable. Is it possible to change the frame to a rockeable one? Like FR2 , FR3 and FRX.

[@Inmoveskates]

Thank you! Yes, you can take off the frame and put from rockerable one from FR2/3/X or any else 165mm mount frame(not UFS).

[@Frank44060]

Thank you so much for this explanation. New to skating and needed to know the differences between all the models.

[@LacyMorrow]

Hey this video was super clear, concise, and organized. I appreciate the chapter labels too.

[@JakobDam]

Thanks for this highly thorough and great review of all the FR skates!

[@Xerasio]

Just ordered my first pair of skates after 10 years, thanks to your video! Very easy to understand and a lot of work taken off us, really enjoyed it. I went for the FR2 ones as i like to have the possibility to try out both, flat and rockered frame feels. If I'm confident on the 4x80 ones I'll get myself an 4x90 endless frame I guess, so I have better speed in general and actual fast liners if I run it 3x100, I'm fucking hyped to skate again! A question I still ask myself - is it smarter to swap out the wheels with cheap ones right from the start, as the first few pairs of wheels will suffer a lot of training lessons, especially breaking and wear off super fast anyway?

[@schlafentzug743]

How have the fr2 been for you?

[@najathu]

Is the fr1 and fr2 do almost same performance?

[@WillmaticNYC]

Wow, great video. Sounds like FRX are great for skaters who won’t want to modify them too much. I thin k these will be the one I get. Thank you!

[@somaticHuman]

You are a big guy. Thanks for the review. I compared between fr1 and PS NEXT 100. The main advantage for me was having a longer frame on the PS. Now I know that the same is on fr2.

[@Upcomestilo]

FR is better than Rollerblade?

[@brockstory3076]

Great video! It was very informative and you did a great job explaining things, I like your style. Keep up the good work man!

[@raulp2p]

Hi, I'm cheering for this model, but I wanted to ask you? Can you put the velcro heel on the liner ??, this model inside the cuff has the coatings to protect the screws? so they don't damage the boot like the fr1? 3 could you buy the cuff buttons to make it eccentric like the fr1 ?? Thanks in advance

[@Inmoveskates]

1. Velcro heels instead of 45-degree buckle? Yes, you can and it's 1 minute installation. 2. Not in all models you will have it, but in some you do. Need to check. Anyway, you can cut the tape and cover the screws inside your shell/cuff, so it won't damage the liner(usually needs 3 years of skating to damage, so it's a lot. But it depends as some skaters use old versions where it wasn't covered and everything is good). 3. You can, but you will need to buy the cuffs (around 20 USD pair) and "eccentric" (around 7 USD for 4 buttons). And it will work the same as on FR2 and FR1.

[@viturc]

Willing to buy a FRX in few days and I really enjoyed watching to your video. You said everything I needed to know

[@LS-bf6rf]

Great video. I am trying to get sized for some FR's. Are there any free times can come in to get fitted?

[@Inmoveskates]

The first try usually takes 15-20 minutes inside the skates and you already might feel that they break-in a little. Even without skating. The next step to skate some weeks for the total break-in.

[@celinalam228]

Hi Sonic Can the 4 wheels of FR 1 and FR1 be configurable to be rocker-able to enable user to adjust the height of the front and rear wheel, same as FRX model? Thanks

[@Cla-ev1xp]

Yes. FR 1 has the most upgraded features. Then 2, 3, then X being entry regarding price mostly. Rewatch the video and take notes on each model. The straps also make a difference in price, then the frame diff, the wheels and bearings only on the FR1 are different from the rest, along with slightly different footbed and insert. FR1 also has metal strap ratchet. Bearings are 9 instead of 7. Good luck finding your perfect pair.

@@BalaHormiga yeah, I have twister edge and fr1s, the fr1 is far better built and if you have a wide foot/ankle, get the fr1 and you'll be in heaven

[@chaindriven61]

Hi and thank you for the video: Sizing for the FR3. My mondo is 27.5 cm and I do skate with Seba high light in size 9 but I have to tighten everything down pretty tight were there is no more buckle latch left. I feel I could've went size 8.5 in the Seba's. For the FR3 could I go size 9 US? instead of the 10 US? Are the FR3 true to size? Thank you in advance Greg

[@Inmoveskates]

Hello. High light - linerless model. Means size US9 in High light would be around 9.5 in FR3 as example(FR3 has thick liner, while High light has integrated one). So if the High light US9 a little small and you have 27.5 cm, then I would recommend to try US10 in FR3 model. The official FR size chart says the same 27.5cm = US10 in FRX/FR3/FR2/FR1

[@yamahab]

Holy cow, I just skated in the FR1 310's for the first time today.... I didn't think I'd ever feel like this on skates. It's so buttery. Silky. I honestly just wanted to be outside all day. Thanks for the video and info it definitely influenced me to pull the trigger even with the price tag. I'm just a casual skater who had some K2's that I got for like $100. They were cool but TRIskates are a lot funner imo and FR you can just tell they are a cut above with everything. Appreciate vids like this for newbs like myself!

[@Inmoveskates]

Enjoy your skates! In the future you can try else frames as well to mix fun, cause it feels differently :)

[@xc43t]

@@Inmoveskates How hot are those FR1s running? I am in Central Europe, K2s and such soft boots are the majority of the market. I had the same K2s for over a decade and I feel I should get something less torn and smelly. Not sure though about the hard shell. I am too old for jumps but I like the idea of removable insole and liner plus a potential for upgrades or part replacements.

[@jeanboulet5917]

Is it possible to rocker the FR1, if yes why would some one buy the endless frame?

[@Inmoveskates]

You can rocker using different wheels(just buy 4 wheels in 80mm for example and 4 in 76mm) or if you change the frame. The standard frames on FR1 80, 84, 90, 310, 325 are Flat. Well, the Endless frames not cheap as it's half of the FR1 price, but you can have some additional fun if you will have a few length frames and will skate on both sometimes as it will be different feelings. The plus in Endless frame that you can choose 3 and 4 wheels options in 1 frame. The FR frames for example cheaper with the same quality(as a mass product), but you will need to choose 1 frame from many, while endless it's 2 in 1. So actually just to skate and learn you don't need extra frame as the standard one will work great. But after awhile you can try more frames, boots and etc.

[@maiaferioli8637]

Hey! I know this is a rather old video but I’m looking to get back into skating and this video helped me a lot! A friend of mine had the frx and he loved them but we are both unsure of which to go for. Are the frames interchangeable? As in, if I have a frx could I put the fr2 frames in? And what are rock able frames? Thank you for even reading this haha We might end up going for the fr3

[@Inmoveskates]

Hello! You can switch frames between frx, FR3, FR2, Fr1 and almost all of other FR skates models. The only frames you can’t put are UFS frames on a new UFR skates(almost none in stock however) and usually on aggressive skates. Plus some rare Trinity frames by powerslide. Rockable frame means you can use flat(all wheels touches the ground) and banana (1st and 4th wheels are 2mm up) setup. At least in this video we mean banana rockerable setup (usually for slalom, it helps to turn without speed).

[@Inmoveskates]

In frx, FR3, FR2 models you can use flat and rockered setups in a few minutes with the special axles. However, if no slalom then most chances that you will use Flat only
