all the people saying Rollerblade dont have as much money as others like valo or the same amount of $ I think are wrong, Rollerblade are a big business, probably have more money than all the others, they also sell the rec and fitness shit so they get cake from that too. probably dont fet enough $ from the aggressive skate section maybe thats why they stupidly dropped the pros.
this skate does look awrite an improvement

18dummy- richie is the most “professional” rollerblader out there, and he’s done more for rollerblading in recent years than anyone out there.

richie kills it

“just another rollerblader that doesnt deserve his title as “pro”

i met him and hes a straight dick.. mother fucker wont even say hello to you.. most un friendly pro rollerblader ive ever met”

are you fucking serious? richie is one of the nicest people i have met! he is one of the skaters most worthy of the title of “pro” in my opinion. and that new stuff in the back of the hanger looks like a lot of fun. this will be the first in 4 years that i cannot go to woodward. i wish i could go back. sick edit though.

ah richie is a sick, sick man. but i really do have to disagree with rollerblade, i mean i know most ppl give them an awful rep but they i think they’re more of a business than a skate company and like most companies their interests are where their moneys at? they create new innovative skates to increase their sales and rep? but i never see them having any involvement in our “community” and industry as much as say valo or nimh etc. who are skater run and put plenty of their time into giving us updates, info, events etc. im just saying from past experience that they will do whats in the best interest for their company and if that means firing their riders then they’ll do that? someone correct me if im wrong cause i really have no idea and would like to be filled in? lol

Richie is still skating amazing and this edit proves it! Plus, he made top 10 at the LG Action World Championships, which is pretty sick considering how many amazing skaters were in the contest! I have the .8’s and they are amazing…best RB’s to date! They are light, flex well, and have the fastest soul plates out of any skate.

dont know about the skate i still got a bit of hate for it but whatever its not that important…whats important is that richie impressed me a lot. i thought of him as of some kind of latimer-retirement style you know…family, kids, not skating anything major or big just doing it cuz he likes it…well maybe i was not wrong but those fullcab ao topsides and 450s convinced me that richie’s not outta game for shure! big props keep it up man i agree that you should come up with some sections!

a lot of rollerbladers get paid today! i dont think its just 10…

best usd, deshi, razors, xjado, valo, nimh riders def get paid!!! heat, able, UC, jug riders also get paid…

dont forget riders that get paid for rollerblading + for some other work conected with rolling.. demos, shops, skateparks… these also are pros!
