Nimh Shaman: Promo Edit

The New Nimh Shaman should be shipping to stores and skaters across the Globe around the last week of November.

Roll the line between good and evil with the new SHAMAN skate from NIMH.

Combining mystical properties of strength and style, the SHAMAN features a sleek, new over-skin, the latest NIMH soul plates, new bomb-proof NIMH liner, all stacked on Ground Control FLT2 frames outfitted with high-grade ABEC-5 bearings and 58mm/90a wheels.

This is the skate preferred by team riders Montre Livingston, Joey Chase, John Bolino and Brian Shima. From the shadows comes a glimpse of your future… as foreseen by the SHAMAN.

Thanks Vapour.

  3. Da Masta Mound Says:

    Bombproof liners? Pssssst yeah ok…

    High-grade Abec-5s, as in, shitty generic Abec-5 bearings? Thanks Nimh!

  4. baby Says:

    i cant believe more people dont think the rollerblading industry is legit or professional after seeing quality shit like this!

    just kidding. crappy mediocre media does not help at all. rattail, if you are going to make a promo edit, at least pretend like you care about portraying your product well.

  5. MW Says:

  10. Jake Says:

    Sorry to say cause I like Shima and Elliot and the team, but they should contract a designer, those skates are absolutely horrible.

  11. Lukas Says:

    …I´ve been skating Nimh for quite some time now and I liked the look and feel of the v2´s (especially the le). But this one looks like a joke…and the edit sucked oh-so-much…sorry Nimh…hmmm…I´ll still try em on at the shop though…(feels like doin you a favour…)…

    dear mr. editor, you must have been wasted…. take promotion seriously. skates are good though

  15. Twist Says:

    wtf? that was crap
    shouldn’t be even posted here

  16. Kevin Says:

    I really like the skates, they dont look bad at all… Nimhs are hella solid skates and stylish in my opionion…they got their own very dark style…i like!

  17. dickydamage Says:

    nimhs just keep gettin uglier….

  18. Joey Says:

    NIMH skates ride amazingly. I like the attention to detail.

    Yes, the edit wasn’t all that great, but regardless, we must support. Its very difficult running your own company.

  19. roussel Says:

    my next skates a nimhs.

  20. Tom Fry Says:

    they look good when they are covered with pants

  21. carlos Says:

    i dont see whats wrong with them. but, they should make them with no raised heel… that should be a basic thing.

  22. ... Says:

    you should buy Nihm !
    light, solid, stylish and great skating… just perfect

  23. Bewm Says:

    the 4 thumbs down should go in your ass, those nihms are sick (promo edit slightly comical)

  26. Da Masta Mound Says:

    Those wheels don’t wheels on’t even match. Why take wheels from a previously model and throw them onto a new skate that is FUCKING ORANGE AND BLACK?!

    Nimh, you dumb lazy bastards.

    Moi j’aime ah wiwiwwiwiwwi

  28. Chance Bentley Says:

    Cant wait for mine to fuckin get here!!!! only a few more days!!!!

    Chheaaaaaaa!!!!!

  29. This is getting ridiculous Says:

    I LOVE HATE. KEEP HATING. NEVER STOP. ITS ALL YOU PEOPLE KNOW HOW TO DO. AND WAIT…..I PREDICT I WILL GET HATE FOR THIS RESPONSE TOO! FUCK EVERYTHING IN ROLLERBLADING. I TRULY THINK THAT ALL OF THE MAJOR PEOPLE BEHIND THESE COMPANY’S SHOULD RESIGN AND LET ALL OF THESE KNOW-IT-ALL KIDS RUN THEIR BRANDS BECAUSE THEY ARE JUST SO KNOWLEDGEABLE AND SKILLED THAT ALL THE CAN SHOW FOR THEIR LIVES SO FAR IS HATING ON A BLOG. HUGE DEAL….WAY TO GO.

  30. www.myspace.com/djwrekshopmusic Says:

    Best looking Nimhs ever!

  31. baby Says:

    ^its called survival of the fittest. things that suck dont survive… hating should just be motivation for people to do better. if someone doesnt point out the shitty problems in the industry, like people who dont do their part in making us look good, the industry will die completely.

    come on, really. this deserves hate. you think that all the people that want rollerblading to thrive and be portrayed well should just give kudos to things that dont deserve them? why would we support laziness? thats all this is… if it even seemed like they put an ounce of care into this thing, so many people would not be hating. compare this thing and the promo for the razors gld skate at the end of their videos. that actually looks professional and is pleasing to watch. this probably took 5 minutes to make, of course people should hate on it.

    if you dont stack up to the competition, you will get eaten alive. that goes for things both inside and outside of the industry. we hate because we think the people at the core of rollerblading can do a better job to make our sport look as appealing as possible. if you dont like it, dont give us room to complain – put out the best you can for whatever you do, thats what will make rollerblading strong.

  32. vinylhead Says:

    bad promo but nice skates, its about time a black boot with orange highlights color scheme came out, i was really hype when valo made those limited edition TV.2′s with this same color scheme, but they never released them.

  33. rollerblading is gay Says:

    was that lievanos for the first trick? i know it was jon jon on the second.

  34. googleEARTH Says:

    yeah bolina… he can do anything even tricks like lievanos

  35. steven Says:

    like them a lot more then the green/white ones…

    verry nice skate !

  36. Bob_Sled Says:

    Personally I never really like Nimhs. Too bulky and stiff. That leaves a lot of room for improvement though. Lots of opportunity for innovation. I just hope that they don’t get relaxed like Razor

  43. buddy Says:

    http://www.thesdsf.com/ – get em

  44. seriia Says:

    i have a pair of shima V2′s and they’re the best skates i’ve ever had but i also customized it.

  45. RoryInnes Says:

    if your going to order them get the Nihm Shaman Loco Editions from loco skates. never tried the normal shamans but the ones on loco skates come with orange featherlite 2′s and sifika liner which are sweeeeeeeeet!

  46. twin2k Says:

    I bought the Shaman in the end of january.
    I’ve got the normal setup, Nihm Liner, black featherlites, black laces and Nihm wheels.
    The liner fits perfect and it feels very comfortable and soft. The shockabsorber works good, the boot itself is not too stiff. Buckels are snapping good and are very solid. For me the laces are a bit too long, but you can shorten them of course.
    The featherlites are very good. Very light and they slide like butter. Great.
    The Wheels are 58mm with a hardness of 90 A with an ABEC 5 bearing. A ABEC 7 or 9 would be great.
