    i don’t know why everyone is hating on alchemy lol
    just because they have sort of copy salomon
    valo = m12
    nimh = cults

    no one hates on them

    People are so stupid…

    Salomon skates are more comfortable than Cults or M12…

    Smell of shite of them !!! Buying these is doing the complete opposite thing from supporting rollerblading !

    If u dont already know
    alchemy is owned by stateside who is owned by some fat old business man from the U.K . who originally started out by selling skateboards
    If you love rolling you know what i mean !

    Dear Alchemy,

    Please stop wasting your time & money with these prototypes. Spend more time with the CAD designer and work on something original. Solomon is dead… they died some time ago. You have only re-designed a ‘half-assed’ replica that looks like it belongs in Wal*Mart. The name is very clever. Please come up with a new design that will grab eyes and force people to pay attention and leave positive comments.

    Sincerely, William Wrenn

    Dare I say it, they don’t look too bad. I know they’re a slight variation on the old Salomon mold, but of the many about, they’re probably the best I’ve seen. Whack a V-cut in them bad boys, put in a decent liver and you could be on to a winner.

  20. hoax34 Says:
    June 21st, 2009 at 4:35 pm

    Oh and change the frames and wheels too… Still a potential winner though.

    Honestly the best looking Alchemy skate I’ve seen. And didn’t alot of people really like salomons? And since Salomon doesn’t make skates anymore you think people would be excited to get a fresh pair… idk though….

    dont you guys know the alchemy frame was bought and licensed from Kaltik>
    a irish company

    should be affordable for first time bladers.

    It’s really hard to tell how these would look in real life. The super-low cuff makes the skates look absolutely terrible to me in the picture, but they may look great in person. Edit of the skate in action?

  28. Drew Says:
    June 22nd, 2009 at 5:39 am

    these arent really that bad, they just need some frames from a real brand and Alchemy needs to design a cooler cuff…. personally i think its not that bad of a try

    Lots of people still skate salomons. This is an entry level skate with a bs plate and anti-rocker setup. It’s a step in the right direction for appealing to first time skate buyers.

    June 22nd, 2009 at 8:00 pm

    you guys should be fucking GLAD that someone outside of rollerblading wants to promote rollerblading. even though its so they can make money, it still puts rollerblading out there. our industry is small. wouldnt it be nice to go to a park and seen an equal amount of skateboarders and rollerbladers? imagine that.

    dude, very nice!!
    I like these better than the last few models. Dudes in the UK, fuken support the local company!! I know they also make skateboards(so i’ve heard) but its a good looking skate! buy em!

  36. jethro Says:
    June 22nd, 2009 at 10:05 pm

    im hoping that these are low end skates. as an industry we need these low end skates to make our sport more accessible to kids who are just starting out and cant afford or wont pay $300 for a complete skate. its an important component in growing our industry.

    I like Salomon, I saw some guys get really good thanks to those first ST series of skates, infact in my valos I rock my old STI-Pro liners still 5 stinky feet years later, so comfy. salomon was the smoothest grind out there at one point in time.

    here’s a review just for fun:

    secure.rollerwarehouse.com/orstore/other_images/stipro/salo....

    these guys, who knows. does anyone have a link to an edit that’s half decent with someone on these skates???

    richie, you go buy that cheap looking, poorly made, heavy, unbalanced unattractive, unbeleivably pointless shit skates and let your style suffer for it.

    aren’t a decent pair of valo’s wih gc’s like 150 quid now or something?

    you have the alchemy, ill have anything but.

    I am sponsered by Alchemy Skates and feel this boot is an excellent idea that revolutiones the way that rollerblading is moving forward, this boot has enabled me to perform better and with more flow than previous competitions. From my experience I have skated many brands of boots and feel they are extremely comfortable and can perform on the circuit alot better, my performances at the Chaz Sands Invitational in which i finished 8th in Pro and 3rd in Am, Also edits have been shown of me at NASS in which i performed a transfer hurricane top-soul and 3rd in Barcelona 2008. This was all performed on Alchemy and have had some serious fun and enjoyment while skating this boot. I hope that Rollerblading continues to grow so more and more can enjoy the Alchemy boot like i have done over the last two years.

    I have never skated alchemy’s but i dont understand why you guys are saying all that shit about them? Even if they are owned by stateside, does it really matter that it’s not blader owned? Look, the air skate is ÂŁ100 in uk full set-up, how can that be bad? I’ve skated loads of different skate brands, USD, salomon, razor, rollerblade, deshi and tbh i’m actually thinking of getting these. There quite good-looking, they’ve got nice big neg + pos sole plates, the frame isn’t so good but you can change that easy for about 25 – 40, the cuff is quite low-cut, would be better v-cut [you can always do it urself], the liner looks allright and tbh i can actually afford it! I was gonna get deshi carbons 4 christmas but i wouldn’t ‘ahhh had enough money for anything else :(
    But anywhoo, whats everybodies problem with alchemy? Atleast they are trying to make good skates. tbh i’d prefer them to any razor skate. these alchemy skates are meant to be light, almost as light as deshi carbon fibres, if i’m correct? Please tell me if i’m wrong ; ] but anyway, i like them, if u dont then dont comment, simple. Unless you’ve actyually skated them and u think they are awful, but unless you havn’t there’s no point in it atall. It doesn’t help anybodyyy.

    To me, they actually look a lot like them cheap-as rollerblade blade runner skates, and i;ve skated them, they’re shit but super, super light!!!! I’m not trying to say these alchemy’s are shit, infact i think they’re the fuckin shizzz. I;m just saying they’re affordable and hopefully super light!
    I’m really looking forward to gettin ‘emm, i fuckin LOVE THEM! get some featherlights on ‘emm and your sortedd :D
