If at first you dont succeed, bite, and bite again.
Is it really THAT hard to do something original is this god damn culture?!?!?

We should start a new skate company, spend boat loads of money, then style it exactly like a skate that already exists from another brand. BRILLIANT!

sorry but why still make the skate to harmanus also in white and not to day that already showed it all all ..I really don’t understand .. It would have been perfect Adapt Russ Day Model … Freakin don’t care if is pro or am os shitty model still got someoneelse on the spotlight don’t you think so ..
Anyway, it’s a beautiful skate .. Nice colors …

@first two posts; but ofcourse, because how a skate looks is waaaaay more important than it’s excellent performance, even if it’s performance exceeds other similar skates it’s still shit because it looks the same. Morons.
October 23rd, 2012 at 9:16 pm
It’s the same exact skate as the Harmanus One just in white….
Probably would have cost a fortune to redesign the entire skate and also this is high quality leather so for now it’s just nice to see the Adapts in another color.
Also Russell Day rides the white vegan skate which is not out yet and still testing…. Ruseell Day should put out At least a couple of edits on big videos and place in a bunch of comps before he is considered “pro”.

Does this skate have any real type of buckle or just a leather strap at the top…if just a strap I see immediate design flaw…

Hmmm USD carbon free?
October 23rd, 2012 at 10:18 pm
I liked, beautiful one, but this black front immediately reminds me the usd carbon free, not much original :/
October 23rd, 2012 at 10:24 pm
love it love it love it. once i destroy my current skates, (will take a while since i cant get out to skate much) i will be all over some adapt’s. BEST QUALLITY THAT ROLLERBLADING MAY EVER SEE!!!!!
October 23rd, 2012 at 10:30 pm
so incredibly light! and very aesthetically pleasing
October 23rd, 2012 at 11:03 pm
Hey guys, all other sports have similar gears only with diferent logos.
October 24th, 2012 at 12:33 am
“So light” shut the fuck up with that marketing gimmick. If a few oz on your skates effects your blading then youre a little girl.
“Aesthetically pleasing”, sure, and also a complete rip-off of a current skate design, the carbon free.
Sell me some more bullshit.

How is it a marketing scheme when 2 people who love making skates decide to start a company and are obsessed with making quality goods handmade ???
I’ve yet to skate Adapts but the way everyone talks about them makes total sense to me.
YES – to me weight makes a HUGE difference. Personally I don’t like feeling like I’m rolling with bricks on my feet, rather sneakers with wheels !!!

Hmmm USD carbon free?
October 24th, 2012 at 3:34 am
usd marketing team is on this shit full force lol
i’ve held both in my hands and adapt blows it out of the water quality wise it’s not even close
patched up chinese made speed skate vs purpose built aggressive boot
you make the choice
October 24th, 2012 at 4:22 am
Pretty sick but for $430 notyyy
October 24th, 2012 at 5:04 am
nicest skate ive ever seen,
and its nothin like the usds,its got a much more vintage look,
October 24th, 2012 at 7:15 am
what material are the soul plates made out of ?
October 24th, 2012 at 8:07 am
@all the haters: fuck you!
This skate is dope! no joke! i skate it since some months now.
its handmade in europe (not in china), skaterowened, high end with cevlar and much more. just visit the website and read more!
the company doesn`t say: fuck the other brands, we are the best. adapt is just another option for you. they don`t make money and buy fast cars or shit, the put it back into the industry and into technical improvements.
every skate looks like some other skate. you can`t reinvent the wheel, but you can make it better, lighter and longer lasting. and in the end its all for the love of rollerblading!
please start to use your brains and inform yourself before you comment
stupid shit like you do all the time, because its anonymous in the internet!
thats the reason why this sport is on the ground. because there are to many negative thoughts in the heads! “there is something new…ok first i start to talk shit about it…” .
ask your parents if they can show you some social competence. after that go to school and start to use your brain! Thank you!!!

Those skates are Good As USD ;-)
So seriously what would be the pro / cons compared to USD Carbons ?
Price is high but if it’s made in Europe I’m willing to pay the price. This is very important to me to buy “local”.
October 24th, 2012 at 9:33 am
PS: those skates remind me of my beloved K2 king 55 (which I still use from time to time as recreational skates). They had no buckle too.
October 24th, 2012 at 9:37 am
USD Carbon free fake ! omg
October 24th, 2012 at 11:43 am
I don’t care if they look like carbon frees.
BUT Ben Harmanus does NOT deserve another Pro skate.
Pretty much anybody who has ever put on Blades deserved it more than him right now. (It is still the same “model” just a diif color, but as this is Rollerblading this could def be considered a 2nd Pro Skate.)
October 24th, 2012 at 12:14 pm
Adapt is really good!
They are made much better then carbons and also the carbon/kevlar looks better.. And hand made..
Stop talking shit about a skate that you havn’t probally tried out or seen in real life!
October 24th, 2012 at 1:10 pm
I have no qualms with the skate, but I will say this: Russell Day should not be “pro” for this boot. Honestly, he’s one of my favorite skaters, but definitely still AM material.
October 24th, 2012 at 2:29 pm
I will probably consider these ones my Carbon II’s die and these become more available in the US…but right now my USDs are still going strong.
October 24th, 2012 at 2:30 pm
It’s a beauty :-)
October 24th, 2012 at 3:01 pm
430 dollars…da fuck?…they look dope though except I would swap out the frame probably
October 24th, 2012 at 3:05 pm
This brand is not skater owned
October 24th, 2012 at 3:26 pm
$430
yea right.
October 24th, 2012 at 6:02 pm
how would adapts be any better than deshi carbons or other fucking-stiff-no-cuff-mothafuckas. quality cow leather yea wow must be awesome
October 24th, 2012 at 9:23 pm
Kore skates bro Kore we out here Kore we got da best handmade yall not adapt nigga buy kore that way better them adapt bitches with jbah and those losers we got rammelle knight nigga what you know what you think rammelle knight up in dis bitch not adapt kore da real shit
October 24th, 2012 at 9:29 pm
I think they look beautiful, properly styled, very professional.
October 25th, 2012 at 2:40 am
Stability in skates does come from the cuff… it come from the base of the skate. Usd has had a flaw it their design for years but they choose to ignore it because they are one of 5/6 companies that make skates and USDs are cool and not bad by any means.
Adapts are made correctly and your ankle doesnt bend all around because the core of the skate is made proper.
The whole liner thing is a preference. If you want true responsiveness than no lining needed.
October 25th, 2012 at 6:51 am
As always those Usd fan boys or riders are trying to talk this product down while usd itself is trying to find out how and where this skate is produced so they can make a good skate too.
Keep wasting your money by buying fake carbon made skates. If you never touched the adapts, you don’t know anything.
October 25th, 2012 at 2:51 pm
Anyone know what the fit is? are they small/big fitting? stuck on what size to get…anyone who has tried them know if I should buy a size up/down or anything? alot of money to spend to just be dissapointed in….
October 25th, 2012 at 6:02 pm
adapt skater owned? LMAO!!!
I don’t know who gets the trophy in between the 2 weirdos from adapt or the 2 weirdos from seba LOL
(and carbon DOES suck)
October 25th, 2012 at 9:08 pm
Mail those adapt people. They’ll help out for sure. http://Www.adaptbrand.com
October 26th, 2012 at 7:54 pm
Lol everybody bitches around here and i think nearly Nobody of them has had Ever read on their site about what they are doing and which materials they use and what other brands use for their carbon skates ^^
