Filmed by Deniz BTK while shooting for Mnstr Blade. We are happy to release this one to the public. Jo Zenk switched skates during the filming of our latest crew piece ‘H A B I B I $’ (PLAY) which left us with a good amount of clips already. we added some details and additional shots during spring 2021 rounding it up while already into the next project.

We filmed this between lockdowns avoiding contact and holding distance to others. skating in various cities around Germany within a close range. The name ‘TRUE FORM’ is inspired by Mike Murda Johnson. - Jo Zenk ( IG).

My name is Cj Wellsmore, I am a 3x World Champion, professional inline skater from Australia. Since the pandemic, all blading competitions and my travels have come to a halt.

That was until I set off on my #DoTheThing Diaries (Down Under) tour and YouTube series (playlist on Youtube). Hitting all the iconic skate parks and mega ramps bringing skaters, mates and the community back together and loving everything I stumble across, whilst getting lost in a good way.

Two months in, my Straya AF van life YouTube series has collectively had over 70k views with new vlogs coming in hot every week. […] More infos and competition on Patreon.

BLANK is a sub-brand of Rollerblade, the pioneer of modern inline skating.

When USD decides to design a new skate, you can be sure it will be a game changer. Once the decision to create a new aggressive inline skate had been made, we had to be sure that it would stand out from the crowd. We decided to break the rules that have been abided by for the past 14 years, and think outside the box – why does a skate need so much hardware? Is UFS really the best solution?

For USD, the Aeon would be about performance, the key word in the creative project. We designed an affordable, high performance skate that combines the boot and soulplate (unibody), minimizing hardware and moving you closer to the ground, enabling perfect control while at the same time maximizing the possibilities of larger wheel use with all the benefits of this new, low center of gravity.

You heard right. This skate is not UFS Compatible. Are we crazy? Consider this: UFS was invented as a standard mounting system many years ago and is optimized for a maximum wheel size of 60mm. But since its creation, larger wheels such as 72mm have become popular again, a wheel size that reminds us of the popularity of OG blading roots, allowing better roll while enabling great control and space to grind.

We are proud to announce that with our new unibody design our boot is actually lower with 61mm wheels than many other skates that use 58 or 55mm wheels. Remember when USD made the first ever carbon skate for aggressive skaters? We took a risk, and revolutionized the skate industry, and now we’re doing it again. The USD Aeon has been designed from scratch to be affordable while being perfect right out of the box. If you’re worried about not being able to change the frames, complete unibody shells including soulplate and frames will of course be available straight away.

The USD Aeon Skate is therefore a one piece, lightweight and comfortable skate with the lowest profile ever made, allowing for a whole new level of advance performance for street skaters worldwide.

The rebirth of the hardboot

• 60mm flat frame: counter-sunk wheel cut outs for lowest profile possible, internal reinforcements for increased rigidity, side sliders, 256mm wheel base (size 41 EU), 78mm groove width (size 41 EU), metal spacers.
• Aeon soulplate: perfectly shaped groove, reduced friction due to offset soul sliders, same width plates for controlled cess slides, optimized plate-frame angle.
• replaceable 45° Velcro Power strap
• 2-way rockerable V-Cuff
• Aeon Shock Absorber
• MYFIT Dual Fit Skinny Boy liner: 100% heat mouldable, adjustable, anatomical ankle padding with perfect heel lock, thin & stretchable front part, comfortable thick padded ankle part, laceable top part.

The Danny Malm pro wheel is a premium pour inline skate wheel made in the USA. These are the perfect all around wheel for skating street or park.

Danny has been a staple in the bay area scene for years and has been killing it for so long. We are very excited to be giving him his first pro wheel. - Deal With It.

It has been a while but here’s an update… I’m currently based in Playa Del Carmen, Mexico. We are living a crazy life right now so I thought It’d be rude not to share it with yall :)

Stay tuned as the crew witnesses some incredible feats of nature, Caribbean wildlife and the most beautiful beaches Rivera Maya has to offer… We also stop by to blade with the homies at the Nohoch Skate School in Puerto Aventuras. Like & Sub much love! - Joe Atkinson.

Thanks James Tsoi for the beats & Frai Gomez for helping film.
