Street Artist Wheels (March 15th, 2010)
Thursday, March 11th, 2010
Here are the production image leeks from our factory in California, that’s right US fucking A.
Better urethane, better cores, we are keeping good on our promise to bring you not only the finest in clothing and most exclusive rollerbladers, but we also stepped up the wheel game.
Working closely with Undercover to produce wheels that last longer and don’t decore as easily.
In the meantime soak in these post-production pics. Wheels ship out March 15th, 2010.
China: Counterfeits & Tornado DK1 Skates
Tuesday, March 9th, 2010I posted about the Moon Frames (photo below) in 2006. 4 years later the frames (Xsjado Counterfeits) are still sold in China. I have no idea about their technologic improvements (i don’t speak chinese), but they updated their package graphics (which is no more a rip of the Quality Dvd Cover, by Dustin Latimer & JB Snyder).
Other surprising news: there is a new skating brand in China, which released the Tornado DK1 Skates (photo below) ; a setup is also availiable with the Moon Frames (DK One Moon).
Thanks Mike.

UFS Iceskates Frames
Tuesday, February 16th, 2010After posting about this UFS Iceskates Prototype, i got a lot of feedback, here are some goodies.
Latest interest in ice skating and the alternative uses for UFS, we thought we would join in the winter fun!
The UFS Iceblade story (The best solution to the current Ice Age weather):
5 years ago, Powerslide / USD in an effort to get even more kids into aggressive skating, came up with the “Iceblade” for the “Transformer” series of USD skates.
As one of the founding companies of the UFS system, it seemed like a natural transition to make this available for children, and give parents an added incentive to buy an “Aggressive” style skate, to allow their kids to skate on ice, play hockey with, and in the summer explore the wonderful world of aggressive skating.
As with the UFS system, it is as easy as unbolting the Kizer Midget frame and mounting the UFS Iceblade! These are on stock and also a great gift item! – Keep Rolling! – And Blading!
RSI – S-Crash Iceblades
S-Crash Iceblades can convert your aggressive skate to iceskates.
The blades are used in combination with frame that has 6mm wheel axels. If you only have the newer 8mm frames than you can buy the blades in combination with a suitable frame.
