thanks! i am so happy when they change things because of my feedback. I am generally asking for 4 things to most of the brands - skates that look cool - skates that are supportive - frames lengths that match the foot length - dual sizing making the sizing true to shell size. reducing stock and reducing confusion for customer about what size to get.

Thanks Ivo for this 🙏🏼. Was interested in what‘s coming and you were the only one with info. Only have found pics of the universkate booth

What do you think of the snow skates? should we jump on it? K2 also has a very short ski called the K2 Fatty ski ironically. Id love to try

@@Thisissoul Being an avid skier myself I would go for more of a ski blade/short ski that attaches to my aggressive skate. A 1.5-2.5ft long ski that hooks up to a UFS frame or has a UFS frame attached to it would be awesome! I just want something that brings the grinding game of inline skate world into the ski world!

I would use this kind of product for a rail park/urban winter sessions only. Wouldn't completely replace my skis. But I think bridging the gap between the aggressive inline world and ski world is crucial to getting more people back on inline skates!

This was super informative. I do like the new skin Carlos USD. I very do like the black and white 5ths. Thank you very much for the little show for those of us who couldn't go.

Really great video thanks! Good to know that you're pushing for longer frames as I'm a size 47 this would really help. Did I spot new Seba marathon skates? Loved the Carlos USDs

Thanks man! The Original current style hardboot freestyle skate came to life because of slalom. All the other brands just copied this 4x80mm style after that. For anybody not doing slalom however the frame needs to be about the same length as the foot. I spend the last couple of years talking to the brands about this and things are slowly changing now

Is K2 gonna put out a aggressive skate this year.. I heard they were pulling out of the aggressive game.. hope not I love K2, I still got my yellow 250cc from 2001 and their still rockin!!! And their super light and comfy and durable and they are wide feet friendly and a true flat shell, which is great bc I hate the forward lean makes my feel hurt

How do you pick right size inline skates for people with wider feet?

Snow skates sound awesome. I'd like to see boots that can be for ice skating, inline skating, and skiing. Versatile boots are a great idea.

@Davmm96

ice/summer skating can be done with 1 boot, just gotta be sure to have rustproof components. But ski boots are way sturdier and taller than skates I'm afraid, they are more akin to motocross boots I'd say.

I think the snow-skates seem gimmicky and stupid, there's a reason skis are preferable on a mountain. If you don't want them to feel long then just get heavily rockered twintip ones.

The snow skates look like too much of a gimmick for mainland Europe. There isn't a lot of snow to begin with, and when there is, it gets removed in a heartbeat. On the ski slopes I would indeed also prefer longer skis, those snow skates are going to dig themselves In the snow in a second on anything except perfectly groomed slopes

@@Thisissoul I must admit that I myself did have a lot of fun on the original bigfoot skis. But this was before twintips were a thing. The industry has evolved a lot, these days I can get a huge free ride ski that weighs less than old bigfoots. Why would someone pay over 200€ for a K2 Fatty for example if you can get a regular all mountain twintip ski starting from 300€? I'm not saying noone would buy these, but most "parkrat" skiers would opt for the regular twintip. Just because they offer far more possibilities for a "small" change in price

@@Thisissoul probably yes, in a more urban environment these will out preform any ski and I would be lying if I said I wouldn't want to try it myself, but then I would need to refer to my first point. Is the 2 to 3 days of snow worth the investment? If you're living up north or in a mountainous region, I could see the appeal to make the investment, for me in Belgium I would just pay less than €10 to get in an indoor skate park and keep the money for skate gear or an ice blade.
