    Kraft is a good example of an “artist” in rollerblading

    In 2008 I bought a box of face brand wheels for $80. I got 288 wheels that were 60mm, 85a(said it right on the side of the box)…. The box was also labeled with the name “Tom Hyser” leading me to believe that they were his unproduced pro wheel which Tom has confirmed over the years. There might have been other durometer’s out there though, but they probably feel slippery at times because of the profile.

    why does lower cuff make the royale more difficult?

  • @jumboblading

    @jumboblading

    7 ай бұрын

    I'm not sure exactly why Michael thinks it is. If I had to guess why, based off of my own experience with it, I'd say that a lower cuff puts more stress on the ankle to balance and hold the position of a royale. A higher cuff provides more stability. I'm just guessing though. What's harder for him might be totally different.
