RB promotes these skates as cross fitness skates NOT urban.The RB twister edge is the urban version, which has additional protection for falls such as the one you experienced. Nice review!

@@jamesbond6687 I agree any skate could be used as an urban skate if you can handle the frame size. At 11.6 inches it sits outside the typical urban 125 mm skate but less than say a marathon frame. Your skill level allows you to handle a wider variety of skates for urban application. However, I would not recommend this frame size for a beginner and probably not even many intermediate urban skaters. It is an awesome boot and I have skated a wide variety of frames on it. Well worth the purchase!

It's too bad the Maxxum doesn't fit me. I wear a US 12 wide. Tried the 13/13.5 XT and it was still incredibly tight. Very nice boot, but I have to stay with my RB.

Nice! I hope you were able to replace the side protector that looked like it came off in the fall. I always said that I would never go as bit as 125mm. But this review is making me realize I should never say never...
@rollingdubaiguy64155 жыл бұрын
Ah, now I can see those are air vents and not a missing side protector! I looked at some pics of the Maxuum 125. So the skate is all good! Sorry about that oversight on my part.

how about sizing? what is your foot size and what size did you order???? and how is the fit??
@BalaHormiga5 жыл бұрын
The sizing is identical to the RB twister edge. It is the same basic boot shell with some modifications to the buckle, liner and ventilation. I generally wear a size 40 , size 7.5 but preferred the size 8 which is a 40.5.

Heya :D thanks for this kind of review. I really liked your vid. But I have a question. What do you think about the "TWISTER EDGE 110 3WD" ? Did you ever have the chance to compare those 2 pairs? I am on the verge of buying either one of those two, and i am absolutely not sure which one to get. My biggest concern about the 125 in relation to the edge is the agility and ability to make sharp movements, or are those doubts unreasonable? :)

Hey, what kind of socks do you use in those? Got a pair, right fit, but I got bad ankle blisters after first session. I read its normal as its one of my first session of the year and my skin might not be hardened enough. But I plan long distances with these skates, so I want to have the best setup for preventing injuries. Thanks!

Not urban, just good fitness - no sliders, no buckles protection. I would destroy it in 1-3 training sessions with parallel slides and spin jumps.
