review by creators of the product is the same as commercial.
December 7th, 2012 at 4:24 pm
this was a pretty low-key, modest review. anyway, this skate colud be good.
December 7th, 2012 at 4:34 pm
couldn’t stand the new cuffs and cuff pads. Souls are amazing but just added my old stockwell cuffs. now they are perfect.
December 7th, 2012 at 4:51 pm
Poor review, they need to check out the questions of the xsjado users, about the compatibility with 1.0 skate parts, how to choose a perfect size for you, the new cuff, how it work with buckles instead straps, this front strap can be replaced…
December 7th, 2012 at 5:14 pm
that lighting was terrible. diffuse some of that light and get rid of those hard shadows.
December 7th, 2012 at 5:19 pm
“After years of testing and designing”, it’s always the same model to my eyes and you won’t do back flip or 450 topsoul i you buy them.
December 7th, 2012 at 5:45 pm
Oh my god their selling points are soooo good I feel compelled to buy they right now ;-) Seriously though, I’m really not of fan of xsjado, I’ve never tried them and never felt the need to so I can’t judge them but one thing I really like about the brand is that their approach is absolutely unique. It’s a different concept, they are in their own category and this is way better for our sport that yet another cool looking pair of skates with no innovation. It’s a bit like K2 when the fatty came out or the first Remzs.
December 7th, 2012 at 5:47 pm
farmer sounds a little bit like the sounds in the grudge…

Arent USD, Xsjado and Remz all made by The Conference/Powerslide???
December 7th, 2012 at 6:00 pm
nice, can you describe both setups ?
what kind of frames fit better on 2.0 ?
December 7th, 2012 at 6:03 pm
USD+Xsjado+Kizer+UC made by Conference/Powerslide
Razors+Remz+GC+Jug+Titen made by Sunshine Distribution
December 7th, 2012 at 6:17 pm
Marcus…you are right about answering people questions…but if peoples question are that stupid, why bother?
want my answers maybe? 1.0 skate parts, everything except the soulplate and baseplates and toe straps. unless you plan on using the old souls on the new cuff.
perfect size? what did you use before? if its a new skate for you….pick your actual size and skate them.
new cuff…what do you want to know that’s not been said? its a cuff…there wasn’t one before…so now you have forward flex. there…
the use of buckles instead of straps? are you thinking of maybe another brand of skates?
the front strap could be replaced before too…again what are you talking about?
Try to put yourself in the position of the makers, and marketing guys behind xsjado, getting a million mails a day from kids asking them questions that are so stupid, when they could just READ what has been said about them. or just look at the picture and notice the obvious.
you kids are so assisted.

SK is the originata of ya staaaayle
December 7th, 2012 at 7:16 pm
“that lighting was terrible. diffuse some of that light and get rid of those hard shadows.”
^ You serious? Paul John was clearly trying to give the video a unique feel. I think he did a great job on it, much different then your typical skate review.
December 7th, 2012 at 8:05 pm
2 years to get a new piece of plastic. Pure genius..
December 7th, 2012 at 8:22 pm
woooow 7 stairs Sean, you’re doing better!
December 7th, 2012 at 8:34 pm
sean is so lame. what a fag baby. stack clips on curbs. what a joke.
December 7th, 2012 at 8:35 pm
Full cab tru neg misfit…on anything is redic (USD) wheres your clip of that trick on a longer rail??
December 7th, 2012 at 8:40 pm
Hello, please buy my skate then, you can do 360 topsoul and triple backflip, yes you will skate much better with those skate buy them buy them buy them
December 7th, 2012 at 9:16 pm
comments above are really stupid.
i repeat, really stupid.
dont ever post anything on this website unless its constructive criticism. no hate. it doesnt make any sense.
do you know what that means?
chris farmer is the man. and you guys know this.
plus, sean’s been puttin out professional sections before any of you guys knew how to buckle your skates.
so please shut up and enjoy the fuckin content on this website.
December 7th, 2012 at 10:36 pm
I hava feeling tht the new toe strap holders r gonna come off??
Im not in2the whole black skate look but I cnt wait 2 try a pair!! If they are anything like the old 1′s (minus the souls) they shud be amazing!
I’ll probably buy some whn they add more colours :D
December 7th, 2012 at 10:53 pm
I can’t help but think these guys need speech coaches before going on camera. Is there anyone in the industry who’s halfway intelligent. Not to mention, what good is a review from someone who get’s paid to skate the product they are reviewing? I rather listen to a nobody for a review, that would make more sense.

I found this, much better version
December 7th, 2012 at 11:44 pm
I just like how Farmer stated that he has been skating the same skate for 7 years. I understand innovation takes time and money. But I wish they would stop marketing products as new and improved when its usually the same as always was. Guess they had that it ain’t broke, so there’s nothing to fix mentality. That being said I am excited about these xsjado skates. The soul plate kind of resembles a carbon soul and the addition of a cuff definitely make me feel like my ankles won’t break if and when I try them.
December 8th, 2012 at 12:00 am
So kelso is admitting that carbons have shit support and would rather skate these?
December 8th, 2012 at 12:09 am
xsjado is something like this

December 8th, 2012 at 12:34 am
you fags need to troll harder. the review is fine. all your vaginas need new blood dildos
December 8th, 2012 at 1:57 am
I skated the first gen xsjado’s they are were cool, but as we all know xsjado’s design has it’s flaws. The 2.0 is what I’ve always wanted to see happen to a xsjado boot. In saying that, it will probably be the next skate I aim for. That’s says a lot to me, as I’m guy who’s skated USD products since the company launch.
December 8th, 2012 at 2:18 am
That was awesome! Both living legends of the game discussing a skate (that i havent personally tried out extensively) that looks great!
December 8th, 2012 at 4:38 am
I don’t consider Xjasdo to be a real aggressive skate, and Sean Kelso blows, so doubt I will ever buy these.
December 8th, 2012 at 4:40 am
Kelso got kicked off USD and since he only skates ankle high rails and ledges who else but Xsjado would sponsor him?
December 8th, 2012 at 4:41 am
curb skating ftw
December 8th, 2012 at 5:21 am
what a couple of faggots
December 8th, 2012 at 6:41 am
I think they think you are a faggot. What are you gonna do about it?
What a little BITCH, you just took it and didn’t do SHIT!
Anon scrub!
December 8th, 2012 at 7:55 am
The comments on this site brighten up my day.
December 8th, 2012 at 12:00 pm
I’m fucking done with this website
December 8th, 2012 at 4:04 pm
I think Kelso can go even smaller this year with Xsjado’s
December 8th, 2012 at 4:43 pm
You people gotta stop hating on SK. Do you even pay attention to the tricks he’s doing? Id MUCH rather see a 3 neg mistrial or full true-neg misfit on a somewhat short rail than an AO topacid or some other boring trick that has been done countless times on say a 20 stair rail. Grow up.
December 8th, 2012 at 5:33 pm
chrisfarmer tricks xas insanely good .
December 8th, 2012 at 7:00 pm
is there someone of you guys capable to do a fak 3 top neg mistrial on a long rail? I WANT TO SEE IT. COCK SUCKERS. SK IS ON TOP OF THE GAME.
December 8th, 2012 at 8:17 pm
whats not clear?
One peace soul: slides faster, better shape around toe (less boxey) new backslide groove is Sick, better placement, locks in real nice.
New toe strap does not rip off.
All 1.0 pieces fit on 2.0s get it? fit any damn old thing you want in your new blades.
Footwraps, soul plates, cuff, and that shit, swap it out if you want.
December 9th, 2012 at 1:57 pm
Dustin Latimer for the win!
December 9th, 2012 at 10:36 pm
I want these. They look amazing. I have the original Xjados and always hated how bulky and excessive they where. These are like a stream lines trimmed down version.
