Right now the selection of backpacks from rollerblading brands is huge. I have been using Ground Control Phantom (the first version) for about six years, and since it’s almost ‘dead’ I needed to get a new backpack which will hold the same.

For some time I was getting familiar with the offer of different brands – I needed not big backpack for everyday use – for skating and for work – that’s why I skipped Vicious products – backpack for rollerblader without skate-holder system is stroked out at the beginning. The Jug products although full of details and cool solutions is quite big, it would be perfect for longer summer trip, but I wanted something smaller for my daily routine. Since I have had Ground Control backpack earlier I decided to try USD 2010 Backpack. [...]

Our first encounter with Pro Undercover wheels was about year ago – thanks to TheConference and Przemek Madej, together with Basza and Petmen we got the chance to test new formula wheels which would have been the revolution in aggressive wheel manufacture.

Back than our impressions were really high but they didn’t last long – the urethane was superb, the grip was great and they were incredibly fast, yet after some time it turned out that the product wasn’t 100% perfect. The main problem was the core – we got feedback from many people who were disappointed too. After short venture with the most expensive wheels on the market, we got back to riding Eulogy.

During the summer`09 Przemek Madej was filming for his section in TheTrutnies DVD – TheConference hooked him up with the new version of the Pro Undercover wheels, which according to the producer eliminated the weak core problem. After 3 weeks of getting clips, finished with three huge gaps attempts together with Basza we checked closely Madej`s wheels – surprisingly the wheels held up very good, no decoring, no chunks – without hesitation I equipped my Valos with brand new set of Undercover – Demetrious George 09.

Over the past few months I’ve switched between a few different frames searching for something perfect. I wanted to find a frame that’s fast, durable, feels right and won’t snap. I recently received some Kizer Type M frames and I couldn’t be more satisfied.

The frame feel great. It locks really well on soul and h-block tricks fresh out of the box, and only gets better once you’ve worn your own grooves. Whether it’s a rail, ledge or coping, both the soul and h-block slide fast, and they’re really smooth when switching up.

The shape of the frame makes it great for almost any size object you’re grinding, and the UHMW center wears away slowly and keeps the h-block sliding slick.

The frame feels really solid under my feet. They’ve handled a number of drops in the cold Canadian weather, and I haven’t snapped a pair yet. If you’ve never tried the Kizer Type M frame, I definately recomment trying a pair.

JordanVM tested the Create Originals (Press Release). you can check his thoughts on this forum’s post.

About the BHC Core Wheels:

Mark has told me BHC has developed a ‘revolutionary’ new wheel core concept (can be seen in the pictures above if you zoom in ALOT).

I’ve been told alot of companies have tried this before but alot have failed were BHC has succeded.

Marks had the wheels for 6months (christmas time) and has skated ALOT on them and looking at them there isnt one split crack or impurity on the wheel. They truly do look amazing to skate (more).

I wanted to skate the 7 for quite a while now and finally I made up my mind and ordered a pair.

First impressions:
- the cuffs seems to be pretty soft
- I dont like all white skates fresh out of the box
- The skate seems to be quite simple no unnecessary knickknack
- Big negative soulplate
- Skate is pretty light weight [...]
