Standard Omni Skates, In-Depth Review

[@LocoSkates]

We've had our hands on some pre-production sets of the Standard Omni skates for a few weeks. Stock arrives into the UK mid-March. Pre-order holders hold tight! 🙂

[@darkmage8051]

Mid March?? 😫😫😫 I thought it was going to be this week!

[@freethinker3083]

As a new skater I appreciate that you mentioned the grind you were doing. Helped me get more familiar with tricks. Great review!

[@regional1000]

I just started learning. I am so happy you have this channel. It helps me understand so much about skating.

[@LocoSkates]

So good to hear! Thanks for following!

[@grivoc]

Everything about this sounds awesome. The fact you can do no liner as an option is sweet

[@apaleguy]

I can't stop talking about these skates to my homies and other bladers. They're perfect I cannot recommend them enough to people these are definitely my grail skates and I don't think I'll ever get another pair of skates other than these. I will definitely be keeping an eye on what Standard has to make I can't wait for the new colorways and versions but for now I'm just enjoying what I have. I bought just boot only and have Featherlite 3s currently on these and the lightness can't be matched. It feels like I just have socks on.

[@thereinsleep]

Would be cool to get a look at the proportions of all the boot sizes w/ the frames. Being an 11 means I'm always at risk of looking like I'm riding a couple of cruise liners.

[@alank1220]

Yeah I feel you. That's one reason I always liked chunkier skates like TRS (Estillo, Alphas, Broskows, etc) and Remz. They didn't seem like I had to say "hard to starboard" every time I wanted to turn right.

[@Andrew_DC5]

Ordered mine from you a couple weeks ago, dont think i’ve been this hyped for a skate before. Look forward to trying them out when they arrive.

[@wolfculturedec]

Just ordered mine, I cannot wait to get my hands on them. They look amazing. Thanks for this in-depth review gentlemen.

[@FL85106]

Best skates since classic thrones. Amazing review guys!👾

[@djshortsleeve9132]

Great in depth review that wasnt a slog to watch, thank you

[@danteneal5561]

Y'all should bring a shop to the US to branch out and have skates ship faster this way because y'all have the best shop in the world for aggressive skating but I usually go to rollerwarehouse or inlinewarehouse just because I live in the US

[@bewater4732]

The amount of new boots being released feels vastly disproportionate to the amount of people actually rollerblading !?

[@janteurlinckx3968]

You’d be wrong actually you’d be surprised

[@bobross2496]

Lots of us skate. I know a bunch who have started and are now financially secure enough to have a skate collection. I have retro rollerblade trs, olive Lomax, usd aeon, sways and Razors SL Graphite. It's making a comeback

[@that_which_is_not]

These companies are all not selling huge numbers compared to other more established sports. I’d have to agree with you though, aggressive inline skating as an industry is baffling. We all see very small numbers of people skating in our local communities, but keep being told there are skaters everywhere in big numbers! Something doesn’t add up to me, especially knowing what’s happening in other leisure sports sectors with large retailers of sporting goods closing down or refining what they sell. I can’t tell if people are settling for less pay in aggressive compared to other sports and are running on passion, or if it’s actually a semi successful market. Cannot work it out!

[@clankfish]

didn't know you guys had a youtube channel, very cool

[@BopperThe]

Just recently got a pair of 909s for $150 new. Glad I was searching around for deals

[@StreetBladerBloke]

Wonder in future if we can install 45 degree velcro strap possibly with some kit release on these to make it wizard ready that would be perfect but probably will be looking towards UFR or CJ2 until then.

[@sivadsucram]

Great video. Is there any chance you could do a fit test with different liners in the different sizes to see how they all fit with and without the heel wedges and what the maximum sizes in each shell are. Folks with wide feet like me want to see if downsizing with other liners is possible and where the limits to each shell are. Cheers.

[@moomoochacoo]

There is a pressure point on the ankle on mine. I don't wanna modify them but I may have to do a heat mold or something

[@justinwregier]

7:10 Those "horizontal" soul/ufs mounts are what Adapt has been using forever...

[@nigelbrown2274]

the 3 screw mounting (UFS and soulplate) looks very similar to the Adapt Brutale. Very stable system

[@NahhNahh]

Thank you! I keep hearing the love for the mounting hardware like it's new. Adapt has been doing that for like 7 years. It was likely done by someone else before then. Great initial offering from Standard though.

[@CRIMINOSFERA]

Best opening ever made

[@chris_panda]

Considering between Standard Omni White and the upcoming Faction White with black accents skates 🤔

[@jameskopacz]

I have both, main thing besides plastic vs carbon is the flex. The Factions have a lot more forward flex, the omnis are stiff. Also price, Omni 220 Vs Factions 425 USD?

[@udihu]

Damn, loco reviews are simply the best. Not the first time I hear the ankle region being tight. That kinda worries me. Also what about the flex compared to a 5th element or a them? Cheers!

[@almostremembered]

Wayyyyyy stiffer than both. The factory was supposed to soften the cuff for production but they didn't. It's way too stiff for me.

[@maxmotors9497]

IMO - all cuffs should all be screw instead of rivet, but yeah you can still replace it of course. It’s just an unnecessary step. And it precludes a hi-lo cuff option.

[@NoBuddyz]

Stoke on Standard definitely want a pair now

[@iWashbar]

Thanks guys!

[@Adam.Olszewski]

Lol that intro is literally like me on my first session after watching Winterclash :D

[@zekwilt]

Can confirm, both black and white shock absorbers come with all skates

[@bassize]

Yes. Every skate comes with both black and white shockabsorbers

[@FDonkey]

Hey Loco-Skates team, how is your current opinion about the Omnis ? Did anything change ? Pressure points ? Fit-wise ? Did they get better, or worse ?

[@LocoSkates]

No difference. Still feeling good to me!

[@FDonkey]

@@LocoSkates thx for the quick response

[@mr.z88]

is the 5/6 shell smaller or bigger than a them 909 nsxs ? @LocoSkates

[@esrg3218]

Is that the Pat Ridder Them Intution you put in? I'm guessing it would be the size 26-26.5cm, correct? I also use Them size small, but tried the small omnis with the stock liner at Winterclash and they felt too small. Interested to hear if you get any issues with the toes going forward.

[@LocoSkates]

Yes, it's the Ridder liner in 26-26.5, exactly. 🙂

[@NISHIAKI]

Wish it was perfect for my foot. Unfortunately it's too narrow! Back on the 5ths for me!

[@-al3k]

how does the fit compare to razors cults? looking for new skates since the cults are unbearingly annoying

[@orosebud]

Quality review

[@amyrul685]

The main reason I don't want to have it yet is the size, I think the small size is too small and the medium is still too big for me😅

[@myeline]

Gaston can you torque slide *hunched up on the quarter slowly shaking his head* 😅😅

[@Electric_Campfire]

I've seen some reviews that have said the heel is pinchy. I know my heel/ankle doesn't fit the sway size 9 and I'm a 8.5 shoe size. Any idea if the heel on the 9-9.5 shell is wider than the sway as this is a make or break for me and I had my heart set on these. I have wide ankles which is a pain

[@LocoSkates]

Ankle did feel a little tight at first (not the heel though), hard to make a fair comment because I was downsizing with different liners. Felt less tight after a a couple of times skating. Lawrence recently pointed out that you can heatmould the plastic with a hairdryer around any pressure point areas (ie heat it up, put it on and stuff a sock inside to widen the ankle while the plastic cools)

[@pouringblue7]

When it comes to weighing, you guys should weigh everything boot only. It's a better way to gage it for us consumers. Other thn that great video! I thuroly enjoyed it

[@Wizz15]

Boot-only would be tough with aeons though

[@batonnikus]

@@Wizz15 saw it off xD

[@TheWindyyy]

So just to clarify, I'm size 7 UK shoe size. You think the small shell for this UK 5 - 6 is going to be a better fit for someone like me?

[@LocoSkates]

Yeah but you gotta put thinner, more volumous aftermarket liners in to achieve it

[@teun487]

So, any news on when you receive them?

[@LocoSkates]

Ship is due into the UK 16th March

[@dustinvaldeztv]

Hey guys, during the “Sizing/Fit” section when you say you’re 7-7.5 in shoes, are you talking in UK size? Is that 8-8.5 in US?

[@the.ghost.behind.u]

I'd imagine so cus that'd be really small feet for grown men

[@LocoSkates]

UK

[@dustinvaldeztv]

@@the.ghost.behind.u😂

[@joshcontreras8821]

I'm skating THEM frames on my shells. How does the standard frame feel compared to THEM frames

[@LocoSkates]

Felt identical

[@Slobodan.inline]

Why is nobody talking about the comfort liner that is rubbish? Nobody skates them with original liners. The anckle pressure is just insane

[@masterazlan6999]

It almost 2yrs seen i looked at inlines skates.. Ha3 u guys end up with hardshell.. Which my old inlines is.. Btw im still use the oysi the 72mm..Peace!

[@Reloaded44]

Love the review but I wish it was with their liner not an Intuition. Kinda defeats the whole how it fits using a different liner.

[@LocoSkates]

We used the uk7-8 shell (the white one shown at the beginning) with the stock liner and we all felt it was a little too big for us (Gas and Jake are size uk7/7.5 and Harry is a uk6). The black one (UK6) from the rest of the video was too small for all of us with the stock liner.

[@Reloaded44]

@@LocoSkates hmm so sounds like maybe a fitment issue if you all had issues between 2 different sizes? I know these are pre-production so hopefully it isn't an issue but yeah doesn't sound positive to me. 🤔

[@chrismedina8825]

How would you say the small shell sizes up next to a NSXS 909?

[@jameskopacz]

@@Reloaded44from what I’ve read, the sizing of the shells is on the larger size. I have the Small shell which is 271mm, I’m able to get my 268ish feet into them with intuition premium liners and doubling up the shock absorbers that came with the skates to gain just enough space to keep away toe pain. I think if I had gone with the medium shell it would of felt too big since it’s a 282mm shell.

[@kevpotts]

Lateral flex? Forward flex?

[@BrewM12s]

Nice!

[@ETERNALGLUME]

But then, again, any type of tooling or instruments that is presented as the “ industry standard” usually means that it’s excellent. lol

[@boseph97]

There’s a thumbnail on your site saying “the perfect skates?” Seem rather shite based on this video. Especially since you instantly grade them based on adding the £190 Intuition liner 😂 Thinking Rollerblade SK Blanks or Them 909 based on the rest of your vids. Wdy think for someone 6months back into it that would prefer a stock skate ready to go and alter later down the ramp?

[@auroraboelon2288]

Curious how RL2 liners fit? Porn Star, P-Star, why not Pawn Star?

[@tionik06]

That frame looks like a wheel bite nightmare.

[@Vuyccbvuj]

You forgot to weigh the seba cj’s

[@nitemirror1]

“oh my days!” lol

[@shortattentionspa.....]

These look ace, shame they dont make them for big feet.....like most new skates.....

[@vpgnto]

some live action

[@pouringblue7]

You nearly did a backflip.

[@FL85106]

I also think little kids who just discovered blading should not say “porn star” all the time. It’s just wrong and the name should be changed.

[@Inferna-Rex]

I 100% agree!! You are so correct thankyou for noticing that . Kids or any adolescent doesn't need anymore connection to porn considering it's in the face of everyone already.

[@MMMORPGPVPPLAYER]

I can't skate a stiff skate...I am to old...Will pass

[@LocoSkates]

I didn’t think it was stiff at all 🤷

[@MMMORPGPVPPLAYER]

@@LocoSkates probably the only review on the internet with that opinion

[@rollforever85]

My pre-order should be here soon then. Too juiced!! 😁🧃

[@bladeshred01]

So far reviews on version 2 sound good, seems like they fixed everything everybody complained about on the v1.. That intro music will always remind me of the end of the movie Groove 🪩
