Air Dolphin upgraded his TNEC skates, here is the full process. TNEC: The New Everything Company.
This is a rather difficult mod, it takes a couple hours. The project difficulty is a 8/10. I’m going to make a more detailed review soon. You can get the three-quarter inch screws at Home Depot and most skate shops sell razor hardware for the soul plates. Rollerblade blank hardware worked for the front six screws as well. I’ve been skating for a long time, I like skates that have a solid thud sound.
I use those clacking sounds to diagnose if anything is malfunctioning. I still think this is a great skate for someone who has a wide foot and for someone who doesn’t want to worry about losing parts while skating. Also it’s perfect for beginners or really any skill level. I have to put foam pads and tape in every pair of skates I use, including them skates for clack sounds, so this isn’t a dig a TNEC. I wanted to show everybody the modifications that I make because I do them often and I don’t film it. Full disclosure: TNEC sent these skates to me huge huge thank you to TNEC I’m very grateful for these skate finally I don’t have to drill out the toe box for my wide foot :) Lasty I could not get any other soul plate on the skate. razor cult 1 piece, themskate, sway. None of those would work maybe a modern day Roces fifth element/Valo plate could fit. - Air Dolphin.
