The New Rollerblade SK Blank Skate - Deep Dive

[@khrisriva]

Hey guys !!!👋. Definitely KFC Alex Broskow section !

[@LocoSkates]

Hey Khris - You won the contest! (RB Black skates size UK8-8.5). Can you get in touch via Instagram, KZbin DM or email... cheers!

[@khrisriva]

Thanks a lot guys ! Really appreciate it !

[@Stoitism]

Broskow KFC3 without a doubt. My mind was absolutely blown by that section back in the day. Honourable mention for Sven Boekhurst too because that man has just never stopped ripping and ive been a fan of him since i first seen him in the xgames. Love old TRS skates. Currently skating a pair of TRS Downtowns that a friend found in storage!

[@lonerblader85]

I think I could listen to you guys talk about skates all day

[@HiighStreet]

Sean Keane in “static” When I watched that I know it’s prettt simple but it showed some amazing spots and taught me some tricks on spots similar to what I could hit here in the UK ! Love it

[@cuttsracing]

Chris Farmer in WORDS the song with that section too, still in my playlist now!

[@heitoropcosta]

Favorite section? David Sizemore - Irollerblade, with the fake rain and all. Watched it all the time to get me hyped

[@YesForNo]

So inspired by this community. Going to skate today, with a bit of a sun out in Berlin. Excited to practice jumps.

[@tvm-reviews]

Around 6:40 Gas went a bit West Country. Haha. Enjoying this format. Very chilled. Love what you do. Podcasting love. For me anything Rob G. Just someone who loves life and loves rollerblading. Frames are reminiscent of the earlier trs triangle bolts.

[@jimconnolly4106]

Good to see you guys back, I bought some m12s not long ago from loco I recommend loco to anyone thinking of buying some, great service

[@HiighStreet]

They have a great service department.

[@dozone6043]

My favorite RB section has to be the video by Rollerblade where Chris Edwards breaks both arms. Arlo may have been my favorite Blader at that time, but Chris will always have my respect for that section. 🙌 💪🏾

[@terrancegabaylo7726]

That's from Nickle and Dimes 2, when he tried to gap over the gaurd rail. Makes me flinch every time I watch it. But yes mad respect....

[@andyrobinson553]

This comments section is awesome has given me loads of great sections to go back through to watch.

[@Redflaggg]

Alex Broskow in Leading the Blind . The Rapture song went with it so well, absolute barn burner section.

[@chrismedina8825]

I gotta say Randy Spizer section in day of the rope!! Classic Roadhouse in his pro RS skate!

[@almostremembered]

I mean, you nailed it! KFC 3 Broskow was and will always be insane. Definitely my favorite section of an RB skater.

[@LocoSkates]

Win this pair of skates ahead of their release. We understand that not everybody has knowledge of historic skate sections, so (contrary to the info in the video), just leave ANY comment you like we'll pick a winner at random (so as not to discriminate!). Subscribe to the channel while you're here please! Winner will be announced 3rd December via a live video.

[@furrdogg6973]

How long did it take everyone to realize they're talking pounds as in currency? In the beginning he says, "they're 300 pounds" then minutes later, "they're light" and it finally clicked... oof great review! Loved solos, looking forward to these for sure. Farmer in Words was a great section.

[@LocoSkates]

Ha. Sorry!

[@furrdogg6973]

@@LocoSkates no worries. My American brain doesn't comprehend that there other places in the world. Blame it on the education system 🤣

[@GarageKei]

You guys are very entertaining. Keep it up. What I do want to see from Loco though is a database or something that shows you what skates fit the same as other skates. I'm currently riding a UK 8 CJ carbon and I could use probably two or three millimeters at the end but they fit pretty damn well. I don't know how that translates to any other skate. Obviously width comes into it but length seems to be the number one determining factor in skate production. The other thing I want to know is do the Kaizer soulframes fit? I'm sorry I haven't watched enough to remember all of your names yet but somebody mentioned an M12.... but you didn't have an M12 on hand to compare it to and I just think that if you had someone there to go grab an M12 and throw it at you then you could do that comparison on the spot. you know what I mean? Or maybe seeing you've got a size 8 in this skate then have a bunch of other skates just sitting nearby in a size 8 so you can do soul width comparisons. not in centimeters but actually side by side and we can see for ourselves. For all the flat skates all you need is a selection of sole plates right? Easy in my mind. If you just threw them on the photo copier and then had a piece of paper to sit the new skate on and say oh well the soul plates obviously bigger than a size 8 in a _____... What is the height difference of the blank frame compared to something like a create? if you put creates on the SK blank skate does that make you stand up too much in royals or what happens? Things like that. Mayby start a database of actual angles. And we could put numbers to these types of things. 'ahh well the CJ carbon seba has an angle of 45°, so if you're in this skate it's going to lean over a little bit more than the others.' All that stuff could be very useful when purchasing a skate in my opinion. I love what you doing. keep it up. peace.

[@lewisbloom]

Honestly, Sizemore on the Solos was insane for me as something that's a bit recent, prior to this I do think back to the super old school stuff of Chris Edwards and massive knee gaskets :D Thanks for video the informal chat was awesome, hope you are able to keep doing these for releases and also do that 6 month later. Skates 6months later would be super interesting to hear how they held out, if you regret sticking to them's after the time etc.

[@moomoochacoo]

Probably the best skate out of the box. No mods, not adjustments, all stock and it feels good. Like an Aeons, skate and have fun.

[@ChickenWizy]

kfc 3 or 2 for sure. The sizemore wrs edit on the rb's was just beautiful in it's own way. Great video my dudes, seriously considering this skate now. Finding it hard to find something around the 8.25 shoe size that I like at the moment - small thems slightly too small, mediums feel too big & same thing with aeons. Also a big fan of SK so happy to support that dude.

[@diridavy6385]

Thinking of Rollerblade, it's gotta be broskow's kfc3 section. No doubt about it😅 Style, skates, music. Just epic. Still a miracle how he was able to keep those pants in place.

[@jesse_vld_2.0]

Don't know much sections, but i think rollerblade's city hopper videos with sven boekhorst are legendary!🔥

[@richtayler5755]

You lads skating that p-rail is the best section ever on RB's. You've definitely sold me on them!

[@rollerxcore]

Corny to say, but KFC 3 Alex Broskow! blew the doors off everything at the time! Love this format!

[@lustforlow-end6022]

I don’t remember the name of the video but my favourite section is one of Eric Perketts. It starts with him jumping a massive stair set & has a Black Sabbath song called Children of the Grave.

[@firthejew]

Richie Eisler -underwraps section I think it was called. Not sure he skated for the team but it’s a brilliant section in rollerblade skates

[@chrispauley]

Loved Sven in the City Hopper videos

[@benbowles9628]

Great looking skate and superb product review as always guys - keep them coming. KFC is awesome but Coup De Tat for my all time favourite - Dustin Latimer section!

[@Rain_power]

I was torn between Shima and Latimer.

[@mbs0222]

Thank you so much for the detailed review🙏 All the edit from Rob G’s section with solo boots are great! Especially his feet3 section

[@elliotprovan2110]

I was never a fan of how rollerblades looked but Sizemore wrs section was one of the first times I saw someone skating solos and didn’t think the skates looked terrible. However Sven Boekhorsts section in plastic pushers 2 really made me interested in this skate. Even though it’s just a re-designed solo I think they’ve made it a much more attractive skate.

[@simonbil8434]

To be fair, I don't know anything about sections and stuff. Just want a pair to get into aggressive skating :). Great video!

[@DjasperProbincruxIII]

As stated in the the vid, it has to be the KFC3 Alex Broskow section. Please dear god, bring back the Rollerblade TRS line.

[@jandedobbeleer2839]

Sven Boekhorst in Plastic Pushers 2. Why? Consistent power ever since the 90’s. That man can’t be stopped.

[@antonygaitanelis1896]

Any of Rog G's sections. Such a legend!

[@fredcastro4252]

8:30 it´s because if it´s too flat and too wide, your feet won´t bend sideways on a ledge. It helps with having your foot locked on a 45 degree angle while locked on soul tricks, and for as wide as it is, it will still hold well on topside tricks. What it can never be is the heel part of the soul plate be smaller than the front of it, like the old plates and like Them´s were.

[@harryadams2991]

Sean Keane - Binary 🧡🧡

[@RobKellett]

Skate looks great! Clean and simple on the outside and new tech on the inside 🙌 fav section of someone skating trs would be anything from ‘thiccy’ broskow haha

[@Toebex]

Really hoping they make some sort of TRS-style skins for these but I realise deep down its never going to happen. I wonder if you can fit old TRS skins on them though.

[@kipper66]

what i really want to know is how the sizing compares to SL's or genesys. is the RB size 8 bigger or smaller than the 7-8 razors shells? the fact you guys mention its a "tall" skate has made me so happy as a guy with a high instep, these are now on my wishlist. as for favorite section, everybody saying KFC 3 broskow, but we all know its will gordon in masters of delusion.

[@axelsevenone]

not aggressive related, but "Greg Mirzoyan Bombing down the salt mine in Poland" or any of the "GM Diaries", again not aggressive related, but his style is so clean and so technical is a beauty to see him skating. Plus he had lot of signature fusion pro boot, same as solo's but for urban so it should count somethibg :D

[@Pelaohe]

The secret section for me too. Legendary

[@Leatt25]

Taig Khris Mega Jump world record video. Dropping in off the Eifel Tower, peak nostalgia

[@mijobuhl1]

That insole is genius for people with different sized feet! Which over time happens to all.

[@JustAnotherBlader]

Any feedback on the RB hydrogen street 60/92a wheels? Not the ones on the Blank skates, but the ones that have the camo graphic.

[@blackspiderproject8110]

Excellent video guys, you’ve answered all of the questions other videos didn’t pick up on. I loved the old RB range and I even conceptualised what a new skate might look like ahead of the Blank release. The real SK skate came pretty close to what I’d hoped for so I’m keen to get hold of a pair so that I can do a retro style custom and lay down some shredding Down Under. Skates aren’t cheap or easy to get hold of in NZ so if you’re up for sending them over then I’ll foot the postage and order some extra hardware too! Favourite section featuring RB skates in full shred - Everything’s 2 Fucked - Richard Taylor. Keep up the good work lads, -🕷

[@lobstalags]

you ever get the skates?

[@heitoropcosta]

Sean Kane recent part, binary, was so innovative that is a most to be mentioned too

[@maxirzh2203]

I think the best RB video is “Lost in Paris with Guillaume Le Gentil “ 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

[@G.J.G.P.]

What i hate about this "modern" skates is that the soulplate is overall to wide. At the back and especially in the mid section. So you cant go deep wothout lifting the frame from the curb/ rail/ coping. I was activly skating in the second half of the 90s and not used to this new style of skates. I just get started again, bought the SK blank and already filed the bsckslide groove wider and deeper from the side, yesterday. I did it, because i wasnt able to lock my unity properly, due to both frames were completely in the air and the soulplate is kinda straight from the side. I still have to test, if my customization suits better to me. But i also understand that the shifty/ royale is much easier with those soulplates.

[@pabloandreszaparanrojas7975]

The evolution of the dirks... My favorite skates.

[@bradleymorrow3369]

Chris Cheshire's profile from the Denial team video "Underestimated".

[@romzcrazy123]

No Rollerblade section is more iconic than Taig Khris dropping in from the Eiffel Tower ;)

[@hobadams3776]

[@stubear]

Rob G in the rollerblade TRS video! Can't believe you didn't mention Rob G

[@Magatti10]

Hey, The skates sway team IV are The best to practice maneuvers street because The weight? The sway pair have a 1540 gram and The rollerblade sk 2200 grams on The weight. The impact its great?

[@Dubleduhtch]

Sean Keane’s ‘Binary’ section by Mike Torres 🙏🏽

[@felipebedoya69]

Broskow's KFC, Cityhopper World with Boekhorst and I enjoy flow's Aldridge so much🔥🔥🔥

[@DaveDEF82]

I really need you to do one of those for the FR UFR too.

[@danielreigdiaz1373]

Great video! I have to say I love Rob G's style, and he had this Solo Collective edit (I think it was a RB edit). Definitely a great Solo skater!

[@igordettenborn360]

That’s the perfect size for me, nice video guys … really looking forward for this one. Keep it up!

[@cmousdale]

Sizemore - A Farewell to Rollerblade for me

[@wikglow2296]

Thanks for showing the skates with intuition liners! My fav section with RB skates is still KFC3 Alex Broskow

[@chalkknees1754]

Broskow in kfc2. That 5 through the hole! 🤯

[@Wickenroth94]

Sven B. City hopper and Alex B. Leading the blinde 🔥🙏🏽

[@matthone7592]

Broskow Straight Jacket. Straight fire! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@modsoul325]

Brian O’Connell Humble Beings (Secret Section). RIP Brother 🙏🏽

[@05julyse62]

damn this new SK blank skate is dope

[@MK-xw1rp]

Her is a good question 🙋‍♂️ guys I’m very skeptical a bout the skate it looks amazing but no parts to buy like soul plates no cuffs screws any news on that ?

[@LocoSkates]

I expect they’ll come in the summer :-)

[@cfronin]

Always loved Randy Spizer skating Dirks in Night of the String ! But it's not the best section ever

[@gustavbrannsten821]

Chris Cheshire - Underestimated That section truly is Underestimated

[@thomaspetersen172]

Broskow’s KFC 3 is the best section for sure

[@chris_j_rutherford]

Sean Keane - Binary 🙌

[@DaveDEF82]

Didn't they state that the true half-sizes will come next year?

[@ВадимДемидов-л9в]

Chris Farmer “Words” and Alex Broskow “leading the blind “

[@ITzjammiedodger]

I’d agree, off the top of my head KFC 3 secret section was a banger

[@grahamgaskell854]

Randy spizer skating rollerblade Dirk to the spice girls in senate day of the rope for me is an all time classic.

[@espo7182]

Mine where shipped on the 19th. I'm fkn dying waiting for these things to show up. I should have gotten overnight. Lol. But I figured since I ordered so in advance and they were kind of pricey, what was a few extra days for free shipping?? Lol. Now I regret it.

[@heitoropcosta]

The secret session from Broskow on KFC 2 is a classical one

[@shingweima]

Does anyone know if the shock absorber will fit on the RB solo?

[@jamespierson5893]

Chris Farmer Words PT.1 "Hands on the Bible" in TRS. Best section

[@william9322]

Chris Farmer, Mindgame Words section for me.

[@Minfiget]

Jan ebbert on the Swiss trip vid

[@lauramgodoy]

Any section by David Sizemore :)

[@Aucadian]

My favourite RB skate section is Alex Broskow in Leading the Blind. I played that video so many times, and for so many non bladers. Such an epic video.

[@DJ-nr8cd]

VG22 - JC Rowe on his grey TRS Estillos

[@OneShotThrill]

For edit I'm going with Broskow Straight Jacket

[@xaxipistaxi]

Honestly, I don't know about sections and stuf. I just want to start learning some aggressive skating. Soooo, with some free skates the learning process would be a little bit easier :D

[@LocoSkates]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/i32laYGJgKmBbZI

[@benicesayhi8897]

Broskow in KFC3 🔥 it made me skates trs and wears headbands ... 😅

[@ThatShaunBoy]

Glad I pre-ordered now! Can't come soon enough, the Solo boot was definitely a favourite of mine (though I do miss the holes quite a lot)

[@DimIsHigh]

As pretty much everyone said, 😂, anything Broskow, goddamnit. If I really have to choose it'd be the KFC2 secret session, but come on, how COULD you choose? Also would've liked to say Farmer, but I like him a lot more after the Rollerblade phase!

[@RollerbladingwithRoss]

Amazing stuff guys, keep these videos coming. 👍

[@5afalada6rande]

Looks like a fine and functional skate. SK is a don.

[@MarvinDSancho2011]

these are it... Awesome sauce

[@seansyaboy7344]

Chris Cheshire underestimated

[@Pratalax]

i'm not tryin to win the skates but anything with greg mirzoyan, haha ....also that rob g team rollerblade vid set to the mars volta.

[@leonrenshaw4053]

Has to, has to, HAS to be kfc3. The only word for that section is, revolutionary.

[@davidgunn1163]

It's not a solo shell. It is a revised swindler shell

[@callum_ross]

Will Gordon - Masters of Delusion

[@fayeadams2574]

Guillaume Le Gentil skating the Paris Metro stations

[@ЮрийЧайка-ш7ц]

for sure its KFC Brosky) Burner section really) best regards from Ukraine guys, much love to Loco skate shop()))

[@patrickpiesik5990]

KFC 3 - Alex Broskow, best section on rollerblades imo.
