stop wieghing yer fukin skates and actually go skate,,
oh and for the point ive been skating for years abd trust the most basic skates are always the best, classic thrones for example or maybe the early grycons…

i’m not complaining cause they are compact on my foot and grind well.
my frame it’s a freestyle one( carlos pianowski ).
my friend have a usd classic and they are 1.800 Kg but they aren’t as comfortable as mine.
let’s go skate guys.

cmon Pablo, 2.170 kg is not heavy, my friend’s remz 0703 size 9 weight 2.050kg each and they are fking light bcuz they are compact on your feet, my other friend’s razor cult4 (w skin) size 10 weights 2.150kg and i never saw anyone complaining about razors weight or anything.
And even my own Deshi CK2 (wich are the lightest skates on the market right behind the shadows) weight 1.850kg each.

P.S.: all of the skates listed above ride freestyle besides the remz wich is riding antirocker.

P.S.2: if u wanna make ur skate lighter take ur middle wheels (if u didnt take them out already) each wheel(besides antirocker wheels) weight about 100g. (:

all you say are true . i skateboarded for 9 years and now i’ve been rollerblading for 3 months. i have a legacy with handmade´s boot and they are the heaviest skate among my friends (2.170 Kg).the guy i buyed these legacy now have a carlos pianowski and the carlos’ model are really lighter.
so , wich one usd (it’s easier to find pieces to replace ) is better ( light , strong and fast) ????
thanks all.

Yeah I’m a bit surprised to see that USD is still trying to sell the Legacy boot. They are not the best in my opinion. :)

The Carlos Pro are truly lighter then the previous Lagacies, having tried them on, the soul plates are not what I’d call fast or good sliding material, Comfort? Nope, the metal part of the spoiler just keep on pressuring your ankle like a Pitbul, hard as hell Personally I didn’t enjoy anything about these skates.
You can remove the boot but you can’t skate without the spoiler, the boot istself isn’t stiff enough, these aren’t Deshis, they sure comes from the same factories but the concept is differentn you can put the full legacy skeleton on a deshi, however there’s no point in adding weight and reducing flex of your Deshis don’t you think?
Wonder why Rachard has a pro legacy model but rides with the good old Thrones?

Is it actually possible to take off the soulplate/cuff system, they almost look like a deshi boot underneath all that

anjing.
Well the weight difference isnt as huge as they claim between rachard legacy and carlos(i have both and i scaled them)
Im sorry but they claim on many places that caros legacy weights in size 43(eu) its like 1550kg and that is not true unless if the soulbase is of too then i belive…
anyhows legacys are heavy but they really look good.

People are dumb they fixed the weight problem with the carlos pro skate they are much lighter now and have less peices, thus being improved since rachards pro skate. It just annoys me when people talk shit and they don’t even have their facts straight.

i’ve only heard good things about the legacies.

im surprised USD is bringing these back tho, everyone always whines and complains there is very anything new in the industry, but when something does come out that is new and innovative, they don’t buy it, and in turn, this kills our industry. (with xsjado being the only exception i can think of)

Legacies suck but at least these look nicer that previous ones. Probably because of the white.
