Nick Lomax: USD Pro Realm prototype (skate first day)
Nick received the very first samples of his pro realm skate at the Winterclash, their not the final versions, but Kingdom brings you an exclusive sneek peek into what one of the UK’s hottest skaters is designing right now.
They were two sizes too small, but obviously Nick couldn’t contain himself and had to give them a jig, so here is his first 20 minutes at Kingston’s outdoor park. Keep your eyes open for the final product and release dates, and support one of your own!!
Via Kingdom Mag.
We decided to document the first 20 minutes or so, till they started hurting as their 2 sizes too small.
Filmed by Adam Kola and Scott Hallows. When their completed Part 2 will be here soon!

cr@p
March 21st, 2008 at 3:12 pm
cr@p skates, even worse skater. These will not sell well.
March 21st, 2008 at 3:25 pm
lomax looks so funny in smaller skates he’s definitely a larger skate kinda guy. and “a” how could you say that? lomax would obviously rip your shit he beat some of the worlds best pros at imyta in 2006 so he could probably give you a good trouncing. i saw him skate last year at worthing summer jam and he just blew me away. one of the best skaters around atm and he’s BRITISH!
March 21st, 2008 at 3:59 pm
great, they look like trainers, i will definitely buy some
March 21st, 2008 at 4:16 pm
They look sick… been waiting for a slim usd skate to come out (that look good)
March 21st, 2008 at 4:18 pm
good style :)
March 21st, 2008 at 4:19 pm
wtf when was he at k town park ???
March 21st, 2008 at 4:21 pm
i really wanna try how those realms and pias feel…
March 21st, 2008 at 4:42 pm
crap skater? lol
March 21st, 2008 at 4:43 pm
the realms, just like the filas, were abd are the lightest boorts on the market
March 21st, 2008 at 4:56 pm
People are fucking stupid.
IF THEY WERE TWO SIZES TOO SMALL HE WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO GET THEM ON!!!
skates should be tight. look at hockey, figure, speed, etc… they all skate boots that are as tight as possible. Figure skaters take their boots to professionals who know how to expand the boot in certain spots to make a custom fit. Chances are that he is skating skates that are at least one size too big.
March 21st, 2008 at 5:07 pm
nick always makes it flow…. so the skates were 2 sizes small…. he still killed it !!!
March 21st, 2008 at 5:30 pm
Terrible
March 21st, 2008 at 5:34 pm
lomax is amazing
swear non of the people on here actually skate
you just sit at home on shitty messageboards all day and playing xbox
blatenly a sick edit
and who cares if they were 20 sizes too big or whatever
your all kilns
March 21st, 2008 at 5:42 pm
jt
youre the dumbass, you can definetely get your foot in a boot 2 sizes too small. My girls a model and shes always squeezing into shoes 2-3 sizes too small for shows
March 21st, 2008 at 5:58 pm
if that guy “a” was in the same room as me i would kick the shit out of him right now.
Nick Lomax is one of the best skaters around. you have to actually watch him in person to realise that he is just a naturally amazing skater.
Its about bloody time he got his own skate and wheels and i bet most of you yankee dickheads saying hes crap cant even pull of a makio on a curb without sketching out.
Keep up the good work nick
March 21st, 2008 at 6:00 pm
Oh and i forgot to mention that the prototypes look sweet.
peacee
March 21st, 2008 at 6:01 pm
I agree Nick is an amazing skater. Nice skates too man, ill be considering those definitely
March 21st, 2008 at 6:03 pm
I agree with England.
Well done Lomax you deserve it. We need more edits of you to shit in those haters faces!!!!!!!!!
March 21st, 2008 at 6:11 pm
Lomax you need to have a pro section definitely. Nice skates, they look sweet!
March 21st, 2008 at 6:13 pm
Nice skating, congrats on getting own skate.
nice skating and the skates look really nice and light.
I wonder why majority of peoples writing here are so dumn.
I guess that will leave as a mystery.
March 21st, 2008 at 6:24 pm
Sick 720 on that quart.
I wish i could pull of an edit like that within 20 mins lol.
Sick skate. I wonder if its going to be in that colour when its released? sick anyway
March 21st, 2008 at 6:26 pm
That “a” guy is a right dick. I bet he doesnt even skate
March 21st, 2008 at 6:29 pm
Dont give “a” the fame, he probably just set out to get people pissed off.
Lomax, your the man. Congradulations on the skate, it looks sweet.
March 21st, 2008 at 6:31 pm
yeah I was at Kingston skatepark when they filmed this, that park is so full of junkies and little wasteheads! Anyway sick and It was even better watching it first hand, I guess steeeez is the word, and a I am guessing ur second name is hole stfu pleeez there should be a moderation for ppl under 80 I.Q.
March 21st, 2008 at 6:33 pm
Its good to finally see Nick Getting what he deserves
well done man
March 21st, 2008 at 6:35 pm
Yes you really have to watch this guy first hand, he is just designed for skating. Steeeze to the max!!!!!!!
March 21st, 2008 at 6:38 pm
They look like a really sweet pair of salomon in a strange way. Big improvement on the old realms
March 21st, 2008 at 6:41 pm
SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!!!!!!!
March 21st, 2008 at 6:42 pm
Finally some sensible people leaving comments.
March 21st, 2008 at 7:36 pm
Okay, i knew you would all go mad. the reason these skates will bomb is because they are realms, and nobody wears realms, (well maybe Adam A and Carlos P) but nobody else. The only skater you will see riding these are this lomax guy that half of us have never heard of, all of you brown nosing the skates, post your setups, i bet none of you have the realms. All im saying is these look terrible and the only skater you will see riding them is the ten year old scrape at your local park who got them for £40 quid on the rollersnakes ebay store!
March 21st, 2008 at 8:22 pm
fuck you a
you have no idea what your talking about
isa amsterdam??
no??
clearly you have no knowledge of skating if you have never heard of nick.
think about it fuck head.
why would usd be bringing out a skate with his name on it if he wasnt a well recognised and respected skater??
you should just go and do what you obviously do best
be a cocksmokingjoke.
a few things are obvious to me here :
a) you have a very limited knowledge of skating
b) you have no idea about business or marketing in the skating industry
c)your mentally, socially and emotionally retarded
d) your obviously shit at skating
and
e) your jealous of natural talent
no ones brown nosing fuckhead, its just so obvious to see how technically dope and naturally talented nick is as a skater
so fuck you and your inbred opinions :)
March 21st, 2008 at 8:27 pm
sick news, sick skates, sick edit. FUCK THE HATERS
March 21st, 2008 at 8:46 pm
I’m down to see what the Final product looks like. I like the idea of realms and skates that cut out as much bulk as possible. Also, what was the song in that edit?
BTW. Nick lomax is dope! from what skating i’ve seen from him.
March 21st, 2008 at 8:55 pm
I agree you have to see nick skate to really appreciate him to the full. not only will he destroy you at street but vert and park too. infact probably anything. and is just a nice guy too.
personally i will probably end up getting this skate. fair play nick
a your a nobody
March 21st, 2008 at 9:14 pm
NIck Lomax Imyta winner, yes nobody…
The skates looks dope and lo of people skate realms, the stock liner sucks but the skate is amazing!
March 21st, 2008 at 9:16 pm
Flowskate, i know enough about skating to know that these skates will be all forgotten about well within a year. Congratulations on the insults, very nice, but sadly, misinformed. The Conference gives these half assed products to half asses skaters, remember the Ty Brissett grycon? A pile of shite, ruining our already half dead industry. Support skater owned.
March 21st, 2008 at 9:36 pm
oh and i also love men
March 21st, 2008 at 10:17 pm
he’s got a point
March 21st, 2008 at 10:28 pm
They look a little like the salomon vinny minton 2’s
March 21st, 2008 at 11:22 pm
LOL Carlos Pianoswki dont even skate realm… he skates the VII grycon…..
March 21st, 2008 at 11:24 pm
Not worthy of an LOL adriano but fair enough. These do look like Salomon Vinny Minton 2’s that bred with K2 Nemesis = UGLY!
March 21st, 2008 at 11:33 pm
but yeh i really like men a lot too
March 22nd, 2008 at 1:03 am
Dear a
its pretty obvious to all that u like men, alas the cocks that have passed through your mouth must of shown no mercy for you seem to be doing nothing but spout utter bullshit. the realm is an entry level skate from usd for a niche market of new faces in the sport and people on a budget
and the fact that you remembered the “seemingly forgotten” ty brisset grycon does nothing to support your belated opinion, it serves only to highlight your naive mentality and jelous nature. infact the hypocricy of the statement is unrivaled.
am i going to waste anymore time on you? no a i am not its obvious to all that the reeking broken hymen that you have for a mouth is festering and the stench of your opinions is getting on peoples tits, im sure nick is devestated to hear you dont like him in the meantime we’ll all keep living our lives - if you dont have anything nice to say then dont say anything.
well done nick!
March 22nd, 2008 at 1:09 am
your an embarassment to rollerblading, and hiding behind a letter while you hate on strangers will only get you so far in life. as will purposfully annoying people who share what you do
gahh im doing what i said i wouldnt so yeah nick deserves it
(hes definately ot half arsed)
enough of this its time for a coffee and a spliff
go smoke that dick you love haters
March 22nd, 2008 at 1:28 am
TheConference is skater owned faggot. USD made more for the sport than any body else, USD was made to support street skating and skaters, not like Roces, Rb, razrs, k2,… I will say USD and Remz but remzs was very small so it’s not the same.
Without USD people like Latimer, Petty, Gillian, Arlo, … or even Shima would be probably nobody. Word.
Do you think you are supporting rollerblading little kid? you are a hater and you are one more of those idiots who are killing rollerblading, Theconference support more riders, videos, magazines, competitions, … than all the other brands together. Shut the fuck up, those Realm look amazing.
March 22nd, 2008 at 1:39 am
oh my god, someone dissed a skate and you all decide to freak out on him? LIke every other skate posted doesnt get a million comments saying “WAHHHHHH THEY DIDNT CHANGE ANYTHING WAHHHH” If he doesnt like the realms or nick lomax (I gotta agree with him, lomaxs style needs a lot of work), then deal with it. I know the realms are made for younger skaters and beginners who just need a cheap skate, but I cant blame “a” for saying the skate wont sell well because Ive never ever seen anyone skating realms. But Ive heard theyre pretty popular in europe so I dont know.
March 22nd, 2008 at 1:56 am
Lomax’s style needs a lot of work? Are you having a laugh!!?? Well…i suppose you made me laugh!
March 22nd, 2008 at 1:58 am
theres no denying that he needs to tighten his steeze, unless you are latched so tight on his nuts that you are actually fused with them. Hes got nothing on people like Wagner, or Jacobi, Schmuda, Aragon, and tons more. His skating when he won the IMYTA was some of the worst looking skating I have ever seen. Hes got tons of tricks, he just needs to make them look good.
March 22nd, 2008 at 8:18 am
Damn some of u guys have a lot of time to talk shit.
Just search for Nick on youtube & educate urselves a bit & no he’s not like Aragon (maybe because Aragon is basically the top skater in the world with the cleanest style & the reason he’s amazing is coz he’s the only one that can skate like a robot, so comparing anyone to him is pretty stupid), but still pretty damn amazing skating. Well done on getting a skate Nick, sure he’s amped & they lookin pretty good.
March 22nd, 2008 at 9:00 am
Yes Nick is sick theres no doubt about it. I just don’t think hes worthy of his own boot,not because of the way he skates its just hes not well known enough and it wont sell well.I havent seen one person repping his wheels, he may be ‘BIG TIME’ in MCN, but he isn’t big time all over.
March 22nd, 2008 at 10:31 am
Okay okay, good morning all. Macca, another disgrace to the rollerblading scene. It’s obvious that you cannot handle someone elses OPINION, and mine has obviously got you all worked up. Macca enjoy your entry level skates, and i hope you enjoy your well earned respect from Lomax!
I’m far from a hater, this is just one product that i feel, should never be released.
March 22nd, 2008 at 11:28 am
your “OPINION” is somewhat void seeing as you’re hiding behind a letter.
you seem pretty keen on voicing this opinion of yours, but at the same time won’t show your real name as you know your views towards this are complete rubbish.
stop being so negative and go out and skate, that is if you even skate?
March 22nd, 2008 at 2:14 pm
this “a” guy clearly manages to make you all pissed.. I love it.
March 22nd, 2008 at 2:58 pm
New Skate= Good thing…
…so just shut the fuck up…
March 22nd, 2008 at 6:11 pm
People will feel stupid about dissing lomax’s skating as soon as they see more coverage and expecially if they see him skate in person.
Fucking unbeleivable skater!!!
I dont even know where people get there opinions from. They must have him mistaken for someone else lol
March 22nd, 2008 at 6:12 pm
yeah!!!
March 22nd, 2008 at 6:14 pm
Hate the haters love the lovers!!!
March 22nd, 2008 at 6:15 pm
LOMAX PROMAX RULES!!!
March 22nd, 2008 at 6:17 pm
I like these skates!!!
March 22nd, 2008 at 8:16 pm
im sorry to all these people that think lomaxs style needs work
and that the realm will not sell but i think that usd have taken into account that realm models will not sell by millions, so it obviously must be good from a business perspective, and the fact that everyone here is going on about lomax justify his recognition and marketability
not forgetting he won imyta - show me a skater who doesnt know an imyta winner?!? and hooi got his pro model post imyta win
and why must every skater be compared to aragon? personally im bored of aragon sections, the only thing that wows is the obstacles for me, amazing as he is the true fish he does on a ledge looks the same as the true fish he does down a drop 20 set it looks so clinical. i dont know its hard to describe but for me it lacks personality
now give me billy oneill and his tru fishes… i hope you know what i mean, theres no denying aragons god like genius, but for me perfection doesnt appeal
March 22nd, 2008 at 8:59 pm
I can understand not liking aragons style because its boring, but I mean honestly it doesnt look like lomax even TRIES to bend his knees, thats what Im getting at. Any clips I have ever seen of him he is standing almost straight up.
March 22nd, 2008 at 10:26 pm
lomax’s style will mature and when it does he has the tricks too
March 23rd, 2008 at 3:08 am
FUCKING GOOD SKATING
March 23rd, 2008 at 12:14 pm
@GET YOUR RAT OUT!!!
very true about aragon
makes me laugh when people say aragon has steeze
because its the one thing that he definitely doesn’t have
and for me if something doesn’t look good
then i don’t really want to watch
but whatever
lomax doesn’t have the best style
and i’m sure everyone in the UK is aware of who he is
and how impressive his skating is
but you have to see things from other peoples perspective
they obviously haven’t seen much of lomax
and little of what they have seen hasn’t been too great
so i can’t blame them for not liking what they are seeing
but just for the record im not hating on nick
i think he is an amazing skater
and his time will come for people to apprechiate him
March 23rd, 2008 at 1:06 pm
Lomax is incredible, his style is awesome, especially in person, he doesnt miss tricks and just flows so techincally, his spins from trick to trick are incredible.
Realms skate great, and sell well. We support Lomax completely and this is no half assed skate for a half assed skater.
March 23rd, 2008 at 1:17 pm
Ive seen lomax skate rampworks a bunch of times and hes always the highlight of the night even amoungst all the top pros such as rachard johnson, john julio, chris farmer, stockwell, chaz sands and even bailey. He is the future lol and he deserves his own skate and even more so a professional video section not just footage of him skating low park rails and stuff.
March 23rd, 2008 at 1:20 pm
Oh and another rider who needs more publicity is steven swain, he is also a sick skater and is often around at the same time as lomax which makes for a fascinating night in rampworks! haha
March 23rd, 2008 at 1:39 pm
Just to clear up whether nick has steeze or not click on this link
smg.photobucket.com/albums/v323/harrison_the_skater/?action=...
March 23rd, 2008 at 5:28 pm
Steeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeze to the max!!!!!
March 25th, 2008 at 12:13 am
If Lomax doesnt get rookie of the year i will be pissed!!
March 25th, 2008 at 12:14 am
Boss skates!!!
April 8th, 2008 at 10:28 am
[…] Nick Lomax: USD Pro Realm prototype (skate first day) […]
April 8th, 2008 at 1:38 pm
yaya makes me want to try them .. nick lomax absolutely kills it .. dont judge on the one edit uve seen groms thats goofy .. hes amazing
May 5th, 2008 at 9:15 pm
I don’t think that you can call “cr@p skates, even worse skater” an opinion, it’s just bitching. =)
Nick absolutly deserves all of that. He is just doing his thing, he don’t even care about haters like you. And i’m not even talking about just his riding skills but about him. Stop hating about people you don’t even know ! Nick is fucking amazing !!
