  FEATURES:
* One of the lightest frames on the market today
* 8mm Axles.
* Comes with a range of UFS Bolts to fit ANY current UFS skate model.
* Sharp edges on the grind area allow the frame to quickly groove exactly where you want them to.
* Centre section has been re-inforced to make this a very strong frame (was told).
* Come in a nice little suede bag, which is then nicely boxed.   |

yeap bro. remember the extra soul plate you mentioned that looks home made? juz get to know it's made of NIMH... malu ah coz i don't know how to explain the other day.   bros, about the fabric stiffener (shank) for the tongue - managed to source the materials from textile store already. Reason because I realized tongue found in most skates were a good deal stiffer, with a thinner but harder foam, and helped articulate the boot during forward compression. They protect shin from the buckle better and gave the skate a more controlled feel when flexing forwards like the one found in Fatty Pro.  According to Michael Powell of K2, he explained that the Nem's tongue was designed with it and fit perfectly inside the stash pocket but none of the team members used it, so it wasn't included with the skates. I think it should be included coz this helped the feel of the tongue a lot and helped disperse pressure from the buckle and laces. My next project somewhere in the coming days would be the juice blocks for my 50/50 frame in case I wish to test ride the freestyle setup without having to change the frame coz I'm riding antis at the moment. Here's the pic bro...  Last project is quite simple. I wish to get the MYCK Wheels from you in our next skating session. ;D Probably green but I don't know if it goes well with red/white color combination. Suggestion? Kinda like to pimp my skate... ;D Pls voice your humble opinion on my 4 projects... NIMH souls, fabric stiffener, juice blocks and MYCK Wheels.  |

NIHM?  NIHM is a skate brand by Shima... The material that u using as soleplate is UHMW (Ultra High Melted Wax) A very fast sliding material but wear out damn fast and heavy. If u gonna get the juice blck in KL don't think u will find it bro unless u order it online Via Edosh, he is ordering some stuff from aggressivemall.. PEACE! ;D |

Just wondering....Why the manufacturer didn't come out with light-weight metal (like skateboard trucks) for rollerblade frames?

oops! yea bro, it's made of UHMW instead of NIMH  btw, who is Edosh? tried searching but to no avail... ethan (ric): there is bro. Kizer has released latest frame called "Element" which features an aluminum inner structure for maximum durability and replaceable nylon outers, and the world's first flipable h-block. The h-block can be flipped for an optimum groove set up for either flat or anti-rocker. These frames also feature durable one-piece speed skate style 8mm axles.  another light-weight metal frame is Fifty-50 Balance Core System.  cheers... |
