USD Shadow Eugen Enin Pro skates - Speaking Specs

[@TerraRyze07]

The original Xjshadows when they first came out on the market it was love at first sight for me and now after all these years to see the evolution of the skates it's so awesome , i wish all skates where like these when you don't need to change to some footwear because you already wearing the footwear.

[@sokauo]

A skate made by the best skater! Congrats eugene and usd.

[@HJJallday]

Eugen is the man. Congrats on the new boot.

[@IanF5]

I appreciate and enjoy listening to a pro discussing in-depth, their setup no matter the discipline.

[@zhingy]

nice to see evolution of this model, I always loved the original small shell Xsjados and these seem to be great update to those! 🤙

[@shredmajor700]

Really appreciate the extra long deep dive. Ive always had a vision of shadows inspired by modern snowboard bindings and we are getting closer! Really excited for these!

[@shredmajor700]

Oh for sure, I don't want rollerblading to be anything like snowboarding, I just think the progression of technology is very similar to ours.

[@iMONSTRO]

Congrats Eugen!!! Very well deserved new weapons. 😎. Thank you USD for not letting him have all the fun. 😛

[@WeAreTriarii]

Been waiting for these. Going off the old Farmer 5 with a powerblade setup. Can't wait to get these

[@goth_lemon]

me too lol

[@Adama85]

These are going to be my first pair of Shadows, and they are arriving today. I can't wait to try them out. Thanks for this informative video, and congratulations to Eugen.

[@AwaiizVEVO]

hi, how about after so long using them? any details?

[@KNOTNATION]

bravo. cant wait for them to arrive!

[@Habeev07]

CANT WAIT TO SEE EUGEN AT THE XGAMES EVENTUALLY RIPPING! PLEASE TALK TO ALL THE OTHER SKATE COMPANIES AND XGAMES ABOUT COMING BACK

[@robertspundurs8639]

Great to see such in depth speaking specs for your own model that you have been working on!

[@untchableninja]

Really enjoyed that, Ennin spoke really well about the skates 👍

[@EZGOMERPYLE]

Thank you for that. Wanted an up close look at them and they are sick.

[@RobKellett]

Hell yeah! Skate looks amazing 🙌❤️ congrats on the pro skate brother!

[@jhojansegura]

Hope to buy these soon and seeing the design constantly evolving.

[@cak0729]

Keep on innovating! Really love how you put your time on upgrades. Can’t wait for more Shadow models in the future! 😎🔥

[@NoProHarrie]

Excellent coverage! Looks like a strong skate, interrested to try them!

[@iBenCruz]

Intense, I love it. Congrats on the new model Eugen! Got mine on Pre-Order!!!!

[@rickydangler]

Can i ask what size you ordered? I wear a 9 in US mens and i want these bad

[@frankandreaswenzel]

I really missed Xsjados/Shadows. I finally got to check these out and think the fit and support are finally the way I wanted them to be. I hope they get to stick around.

[@jumboblading]

Really happy you did this. It was fun to see the ideas that were thrown around and not added to the final product, like the atop stuff.

[@Unknown_Industries_]

Back skating after a break and starting a family. Pretty excited to try out these skates. Really appreciate the product breakdown. Also enjoy your edits long distance high five. Thanks

[@Burmanz]

They look Awesome I Just bought a pair!

[@brownmydaemon]

A really really useful review! Thumbs up!!

[@swampconcept3864]

loved the breakdown. can’t wait to get mine.

[@glooms691]

pro tip: if anyone still rocking the old walkable liners throw some speed snowboard boot laces in them and they perform really well! got the idea from the new liners.

[@DannyTheDad]

I always loved xsjados. These look dope

[@faridramirez3044]

I love the shadows!!!

[@pm2007est]

Dustin Latimer made the first Xsjado skate right? Great 👍 skate

[@sharonblack5482]

I love it man, can’t wait the next one

[@thecommission970]

Thanks for this vid! just got my new EE shadows last night!! might have to order a back up pair, just in case I have to wait multiple years for new shadow again lol! If you ever get to take a U.S. tour come through Colorado! I know almost all the local bladers here in Grand Junction pre-ordered these. And I got your back behind the lens!

[@glooms691]

these are a huge upgrade from the liners in the trimax model. I didn't get to try the 2019 shadows with the buckle system that were discontinued, but can't wait to grab these ones! I think it will solve the problem of my trimax liners constantly coming loose.

[@ricklanzetta7]

Really hope USD produces more replacement Shadow parts this time around..I've been trying to find extra soulplates for my Shadow 57's for like 2 years now.. also for the love of God please please make the new shock absorbers available to purchase separate from buying a whole new skate.. Was really disappointed the last run of shadows didn't come with shock absorbers.

[@usdskatesofficial]

Hey, yes, this time we offer replacement parts! From Soulplates to Shockabsorber, we ordered it!

[@valprem6401]

That's my new dream skates

[@Utubeisazzho]

Got white ones on the way. Thank you much!

[@nathanhadley6411]

Look good, well done. Can't believe Mesmer let you use their frames!

[@meysamshayan2470]

Very good

[@gooutoffashion]

You guys should offer a option to transform them to classic style xsjados useable with low-top sneakers. Maybe rebranded doop parts.

[@gooutoffashion]

@Craig Aaron Original Footwraps actually where the best and cheapest option for barefoot shoes.

[@pinfarmer]

Looks great! If I could try a pair on first is buy for sure

[@adamtomlinson918]

I *loved* my shadows until they broke. I'm excited that I think i heard you say this eclipse liner is wider. my biggest complaint of the old one was that they were just barely too thin

[@negue9]

Also try heatmold them :) I’m doing it all the time

[@MonsterChad27]

I pre oredered a month ago.... I want mine now!!!!

[@inetapriedite6063]

Excellent news boots 🥾

[@rendszer2307]

❤

[@jeremyfitnfun]

It would be good to have the option to purchase the skate boot-only. I don't like the Fluid V frame or any other flat frame. Or, if it has to come with a frame, make it a freestyle X frame like the older Xsjados used to have. Thank you! :)

[@이상규-l5c]

soooooooooooooo nice !!!!!

[@jaankeels]

Very nice 😌

[@pootnannies]

i like these. the tall liner bothers me though.

[@Juergen79]

Sehr cool 😍

[@mateussarmento7692]

I don't understand why they put the buckles on the soul side of the skate instead of the negative side. This makes the skate much less durable especialy because it has no protection. The buckle always has contact with the ledge/rail when missing a grind.

[@thesquillyexperience9442]

this video was so cool :) thanks for the stories and insight’s! Hopefully I can grab a pair

[@JohnnyCrepe]

Them needs to make that color way

[@thezode]

Are we going to be able to buy these replacement parts separately? I would love to buy a new liner for my USD Shadow v1

[@usdskatesofficial]

Hello, yes! This time we ordered replacement parts for the Shadow. Please ask your local shop soon!

[@kylehazachode]

I bought three pairs of Xsjado skates way back in the day when I learned they were being discontinued. I love how you can wear your own shoes as the liners in Xsjado skates. Has that feature been lost with the introduction of USD's Shadows?

[@usdskatesofficial]

You need to add the old padding parts from the xsjado to use your own shoes again.

[@_emarqz]

does the shock pad help position tour foot over the soul plate?Im skating the trimax model with no shockpad and the plastic from the soulplate is digging into the side of my foot on soul tricks.

[@ericfoust2843]

Why did USD go away from the “lock ridge” that used to be on the back of the heals of the shoe that prevented the heal lift? It would hit the top of the opening of the cuff heal opening…..

[@jasoncalva]

Nice updates! My only question is why they don’t have soles like the original model Xsjados where the shoe/liner has a notch that holds the heels down? Then you wouldn’t need all that Velcro in the back.

[@negue9]

The molds for these soles got lost over the years, actually we already working on recreating and updating it since the original ones had tiny gaps between the soul and the cuff anyway, especially on the 2.0 cuffs. That’s why we used the Velcro for this model. Also, honestly I prefer the Velcro as it not only avoid heel lift but also holds the liner tight to the cuff which was never the case with the old system.

[@gooutoffashion]

Exactly ny thoughts. The notch was a way better solution. But lost molds explains a lot. Like the sudden change of the footwraps.

[@gooutoffashion]

With the ckassic heel it also looks more "rounded" off in that area.

[@gradystanley5812]

Wish I could afford any pair😪

[@CresentMoon18]

Can't find these anymore

[@RageForSeven]

if the V1 cuff has the original xsjado holes for the padding, will this new liner be available so we can use it in older xsjado? also in case you trash your liners, you need a replacement one, so availability of the new liner would be a great option

[@negue9]

Yes it will be available.

[@RageForSeven]

@@negue9 brilliant, do you have an idea if it is planed for this year or early 2023?

[@amaurisjoaquinlinares4927]

What's the feeling of these skates like? I have a low arch would this fit good?

[@flexbandz2450]

I love the Xsjados. I have a really old pair and want to buy these but 400 bucks!!! Ehh

[@pawemlosnik2104]

Zajebiste🤳

[@PSauce-km4hn]

What's the sizing like? Is it true to size or not. Because the liner is a basically a sneaker. Does it expand overtime?

[@negue9]

It does expand over time a bit but you can also heatmold them for a better fit, just check heatmolding for Myfit liners

[@shanemicheal3458]

Was hoping for more information on the shell sizes and possible configurations, like running smallest shell with proper shoe size combo like we did back in the 1.0 days. If anyone can confirm any of this information that would be great, I really dont wanna buy 3 pairs of skates to make 1 pair :D

[@negue9]

40 comes in XS but you can fit 41 in xs. Do you mean these infos? That’s why I said that in the beginning, was more of a hidden message that you can fit one size up in the Shells.

[@shanemicheal3458]

@@negue9 I bought 3 pairs, of these skates. Sadly I'm gonna be running a size 10 skate using the bottom of the shell size instead of the end of the previous shell size. The smallest the shell can be the better control I have had sense the 1.0 days. Maybe the next skate can bring back the foot wrap style would lower the production cost.

[@rickydangler]

I wear a size 9 in US. What size skate should i get? I want to pre order so bad but without skate shops to try skates on im worried. Havnt skated in 15 years so i would imagine alots changed in that time

[@negue9]

Check the mondo (cm) sizing as it’s the most accurate one

[@highscoolcltrmvmnt]

Tengo duda: ¿Son 4 tallas de soulplates como las hicieron en lo último de XSJADO 2.0? Ya encargué mi par de patines USD SHADOW Eugin Enin 2 👌🏻💀😼😎🛼🛼🖤💚💙 Tengo la duda e inquietud de tamaño de liner camina le eclipse en relación al tamaño de los soulplates, mi pie es de 26.8 cms que se aplica en talla 42 eu, 9us. Considerando la tabla de tallas de USD sizes, la medida mondo que me corresponde es 268. Hace unos días un amigo estreno sus USD SHADOW Eugin Enin 2 y pidió una talla 42 y no le quedó, su pie si es más grande que el mío. ¿Si pido un par de patines USD SHADOW Eugin Enin 2 con el eclipse talla 42 viene con soulplates talla S o M? (de la producción de 4 tamaños de soulplates Xsjado 2.0) quisiera hacer una elección ideal al tamaño de mis pies y que no tenga unos soulplates muy grandes. Es más cómodo y preciso todo a nuestro tamaño

[@dominstal4357]

👍

[@Matias-rn9ff]

Can you use it with normal "lower cut" sneakers?

[@papjonas3971]

Probably no

[@Verta33]

Eugen cut his hair!!!

[@christfollower575]

Do these come in a us13,uk 12 size?

[@wanya0got0it0goin0on]

Are these true to size? Or do they naturally run narrow?

[@stephenstuckey]

Dont use foot wraps with these?

[@Akastaten]

Why can you not buy these anywhere???

[@usdskatesofficial]

These skates are sold out everywhere. New ones are coming out in some months!

[@willbean1573]

Are these heat moldable? If yes how long how hot?

[@negue9]

Check the Myfit liner heatmolding tutorials, it’s pretty much the same. Just don’t forget them in the offen hahah a hairdryer should also do the job

[@elsupe]

Doop with soes?

[@highscoolcltrmvmnt]

No. Son lo original, doop fue creado basado en el diseño de XSJADO ahora USD lo fábrica con el nombre Shadow

[@kocem3975]

Wuste garnet das er deutsch ist

[@LeekowalskiWalker]

That Velcro should have bolts not rivets. It won’t last. Telling you how to remove it carefully so it won’t rip? Really? That’s lame af. They even filmed that bit separately because he got to mention it. Must have ripped 100s of them. This boot is not ready to be released. You shouldn’t be selling this to people.

[@negue9]

I skated the final cuff for 6 month street without problems ;) We edited that bit into this video so people take more care, not because it will rip off easily but to guarantee that the Velcro itself will last longer and stay sticky. I don’t know if you ever had Velcro parts for sports but if you don’t remove them properly but instead rip them of sideways instead or straight up, they will get lose quicker. That’s it. There been so many products with great details over the years like liners with Neopren parts on top which just got ripped off by kids because they didn’t knew the correct way to put them on and off. For sure your can claim that these been bad too but for people who knew how to treat them, they been great.

[@LeekowalskiWalker]

You literally said rip in the video. I’m still gonna buy them. Do you know if there’ll be 2.0 cuffs available as spare parts? On grindhouse it says “Facts: totally reworked cuffs … the one piece and the dual piece”

[@negue9]

@@LeekowalskiWalker sorry for my English lol, with rip I meant pulling out the liner violently not ripping out the Velcro. Thanks for the support :) Yeah, never fully trust Shop descriptions hahaha right now only the 1.0 cuff is restocked but the 2.0 cuff is also planned for something else :)

[@LeekowalskiWalker]

Exciting stuff!

[@manolisanastasiou6393]

where can we buy those frames on their own in the uk ???
