my friend has had these on preorder for like 3 months. they look ill. i really like how skating is going towards the lighter yet sturdy route.

i think aragon should’ve got the black colourway, would’ve matched his skate better.
August 8th, 2008 at 6:44 pm

I’m loving these new Featherlight frames from GC.
The one hand bolt setup is a great idea!
Great colorways
Where is the Alex Browskow pro-model frame?
I’ll be buying the EB grey colorway when these frames come to stores.

I’m not a grammar nazi, but if you put out an advertisment, you better make sure it doesn’t have more spelling mistakes than a firstgrader’s english homework.
August 9th, 2008 at 10:30 am
speaking of grammar they need to start spelling eriK with a K…anyway they got them in at revolution today, and no they dont have metal spacers…cry

rollerblade has had the one-handed operation idea for a while. it’s not some brand new crazy idea.

the axe system suxx hard.. if you lose an axe you have to order that axe again, this is so stupid. have fun with this frame and always take your old frames with you in case of losing an axe, haha !
