Just bought the twister xt, and this was pretty helpful. Appreciate the information given here. Really hoping the community gets bigger. I'm new to inline skating so I'm glad to see someone out there putting this stuff out there on specific skates.

I received a pre-release set of skates and can attest to the positive review reflected in this video. Every part of the skate is well thought out, designed and manufactured. I have a pair of intuition liners and superfeet (for intuition liners) and I have chosen to ride the stock liners and footbeds because they are so very comfortable. No after-market additions are required to upgrade this skate; it is a masterpiece. I have been skating since the early 90s and this skate is far and away the best overall skate design. I would recommend this skate over the Powerslide and FR offerings...although FR is a fantastic skate. I have a pair of Powerslide Next skates and I am underwhelmed by the design choices and materials of manufacture (including boot plastic and cast aluminum frames). In short: the Rollerblade Twister XT is highly recommended and you cannot go wrong with picking a pair up.

If you had the Next, how is the support of the Twister compared to it? I have the RB and somehow would like a tiny bit more support
@diegobokserramirez64172 жыл бұрын
@@marlonmj5 I would say the support of the Twister is superior to the PS Next. The cuff is nearly the same height; the major difference is the liner: the new Twister liner has a plastic cover on the front side and it also has four (4) lacing holes (2 each side) near the top of the liner which, in my opinion, greatly improve the support of the skate. I have a set of Intuition liners which I do not use because the new Twister liners are so well designed, constructed and comfortable. As a side note: the Twisters come with three (3) sets of laces. The set which are in the skate when they ship are the short laces which will not be able to lacing hole in the liner. The other two sets of laces are longer and have the extra length to lace the entire lacing column. One set is black and one set is yellow.

Thank you for a great review! You mentioned Intuition liner as a possible upgrade - would it be possible to do it after getting these skates in the size that fits with the original liner? RB liners might not be as padded as FRs, so downsizing RB skates for Intuition liners might not be as important as with FR shells. There are some shell sizing guides for wizard skates, but I couldn't find anything for RB
@daydreamjohnny2 жыл бұрын
I'm surprised there's no mention of the RB Pro X. They fit my feet perfectly so I'm thinking they have essentially chosen me. I don't love that the buckles are riveted and the cuff isn't removable. I'd like to know your thoughts on them. A full review would be awesome!

Cor sure the twister feels better i upgrated ALL the parts on my skate though. Even the cuff. The reason is because of the trinity mount. But maybe i should do a trinity custom on the twister. Hmmm
