What happens when you modify one of our all-time best selling skates into an aggressive model? Antony Pottier has the answers, and it's looking pretty damn positive. We are super excited to share the details of the FR Skates UFR AP FLAT Street Skates with you.
The boot is a modification of FR Skate's well known Freeride (or FR) skates. The mounting system is modified to UFS, meaning you can use it with the soulkit as an aggressive skate or take the soulkit off and use a UFS frame for an enhanced big wheel freeride! The shell is solid and supportive, robust on landings while staying responsive to your movements.
The brand-new soulkit correlates and slots perfectly with the modified shell, keeping the centre of gravity as low as possible. A wide sole and negative space make for easier grinds, and a shallow groove accommodates more accessible ankle positions on grooved tricks. The plastic used is slidey and slimline!
The liner is thick and slipper-like, providing best-in-class comfort at any price (but for an incredibly 'intermediate' price tag).
The FLAT frame is CNC'd for precision out of a single piece of high-quality Aluminium, the sort used to build aeroplanes, and these are sure to take your skating to a whole new altitude.
The FR 65mm AP wheels are fast, durable and grippy. Perfect for quick and responsive skating (watch Antony).
FR Skates UFR AP FLAT Street Skates are seriously elite at an affordable price.

Aggressive inline skating (referred to by participants as rollerblading, blading, skating, street skating, rolling, roller freestyle or freestyle rolling) is a sub discipline of inline skating in the action sports canon. Aggressive inline skates are specially modified to accommodate grinds and jumps. Aggressive skating can take place on found street obstacles or at skate parks.
In 1980, a group of ice hockey players in Minnesota were looking for a way to practice during the summer.[1] Scott and Brennan Olson formed the company Rollerblade, Inc., to sell skates with four polyurethane wheels arranged in a straight line on the bottom of a padded boot.[1] In 1988, Rollerblade introduced the first aggressive inline skate, the Rollerblade Lightning TRS. Aggressive inline skating developed as an organized sport in the early 1990s.[2] In 1994 the National Inline Skate Series, better known as NISS was launched as the first aggressive skating competition series. Promoters Rick Stark and Mark Billik sold Taco Bell on sponsoring the series for $150,000 and a six stop series was born. NISS, went strong for 5 years holding contests in Los Angeles, New York, Rome and Brazil. NISS was the first series to put aggressive inline on television with an ESPN deal for the 1994 series and later moving the competition series to PRIME TICKET-Fox Sports. The Aggressive Skaters Association (ASA) was formed by a number of aggressive inline skaters in 1995 as a forum to develop rules governing competitions and equipment.[2] The sport was included in the first ESPN X-Games in 1995 and included vertical ramp and street event competitions.[3] It reached its height in popularity in the late 90s, with mainstream movies like Disney's Brink! and other films. The brand "Senate", run by Arlo Eisenberg and several other prominent skaters, enjoyed mainstream popularity during the 1990s.
Founded by company owners/skating legends Brian Shima, Jon Julio, and Kato Mateu and supported by all major skate companies, the World Rolling Series (WRS) links together the best skaters, event organizers, retailers and skate parks and aims to "create a tighter knit community, increase overall awareness and set a higher standard for aggressive rollerblading." The WRS circuit started in 2009 with 10 established professional contests in France, Netherlands, England, Spain, Argentina, Australia and the United States. In 2012, WRS included 100+ amateurs and professional events in over 20 countries.[4]

If you're not staring into a skateboarders eyes while you wax the ledge, you're not doing right
That’s effing hilarious!
Establish dominance.
😂😂
dude, you were on FIRE on that ledge at the end. absolute madman. loved it!
Thank you ^___^
Great video! Been skating them for almost 6 months. Perfect fit. I love them a lot. Aside from being fast, the soulplate is also really durable.
Love the video man and the channel quickly.becoming one of my favourite blading channels and your skating is top notch 🙌🔥
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🫡🫡🫡🫡
I just ordered, I hope I won't be disappointed because they look great!!
I was fortunate to find the Intuition version of these at a discount a few weeks ago and just got them today, I cannot believe how high the bar has been set for affordable skates.
And what a time to be a skater!
They’re so good 🙏
Going to intuition shop today to try these on! May walk away with a pair!! Thanks for the insight brotha!
So glad you dig em, I love mine! 🤙
🙏🙏
I like the hot dog too super hero landing🙌
😎 😆
That bio was sick, you and Sam both tearing it up
🙏🙏🙏🙏💙💙💙
San marcos, San antonio, same thing to the rest of the world. I love how you and Sam dropped it hard and its no big deal
🙏🙏🙏
Hey man! Sick video! I’ve been out of skating for about 10 years but want to pick it out again! I do have some ligament damage in my ankle and was wondering do you think these are supportive for my issue! Keep putting videos out man you have my sub!
I miss that park. Lived in San Marcos about 11 years.
I also put the my fits from the Aeon 80s in mine and they work really well, I hear the stock liner beds in well after a while but boy is it chunky.
Thank you very much...I know more which one will be my next pair.
Cheers dude
🍻 💙
Surprisingly good aye! They just work
Exactly!!
Wax solution for trunk = plastic bags that loaves of bread come in (king loaves, or bagels, not the short fat football sort of loaves). Probably double bag it if you have much sharp stuff in the trunk. Works well, just make sure it doesn’t tip over. Ziplocs work too but probably more prone toward coming undone.
Soul to Back Torque, really nice switch up!! I'm happy to see another agressive video, wizard skating was little boring, but why not, your skills in wizard was really good. I'm injured And your shreding is moral support for me.
Heal quickly my friend 💙
I bought a pair yesterday ❤❤
I'm 275 as well and skate the 9 shell with the Intuitions. It's a good fit (as is the 2nd Skin that you're using!), especially considering 275 is almost always between dual shell sizes.
I love mine too, but I do agree with others that say they don't flex quite as well as a true aggressive boot. It just makes things like royales a little harder. But you're right, they're super supportive and responsive. I've been riding mine with Bigs and feel like that's a good setup for park and transition.
Really need to get some intuitions 😣
@@iRollerboot I feel like that shell (which is really their "8" shell) with the Intuitions is a great fit for 275. I'm not sure I could go any smaller.
Those look like my skates. Except the frames, and wheels, and liners... But otherwise, identical. Good price and I love them, fun on big wheels too.
💙💙💙 thanks Richard
I just got a pair with the intuition liner. I put on my kaltik v2 until the oysi frames my homie is sending me come, because he’s dope. I love the skates already, shout out Caleb smith 💪
Your pain and suffering was hilarious and entertaining. Thank you.
Also, you remind me of a T-Rex when you Skate around
Suffering skating the UFRs?
@@iRollerboot pretend this was on the one chip video then itll make more sense
Jan Welch❤❤
I have my own parafin free wax, I can ship to you to try it on, I plan on commercializing it soon :)
Damn these are all sold out simply cause you’re basically buying an intuition liner and getting a great boot practically for free… I think it’s $275ish total lol. Best deal around?
$289 for the intuition boot but you can get it with a stock liner for 199
I personnaly like the stock liner version better. Its super comfortable and well made.
I bought mine second-hand but not used for $125. It's a great deal if you're going after an Intuition liner.
I've only had these in hand, but they were easily the lightest plastic shell boot I've ever felt. The Intuition liners probably helped, but not much. Had these been given different shell sizes, they could've been something I'd try.
These with intuitions seem like a great combo
I've got this boot with the intuition liner. It rules. It's the best boot on the market for a wide foot.
Just got intuition premiums for mine today (actually got them for my farmer sways but they pinch just below my ankle bone) but in the UFR’s there perfect, no pinching, pressure points, or discomfort at all! So think I’ll be switching back to the UFR’s for a while 😆
@@Peteskates i had that with the intuitions until the broke in, now they are 👌🏻
@@Andrew_DC5 was that in the sways as well? I was hoping they’d break in to use in my sways. There fine if I take the extra support off the ankle, it’s the round bit at the bottom of the ankle support that’s digging in but I like the extra support it kinda compensates for the “sway forward flex” but they are great out the box in my UFR’s
@@Peteskates nah i used my intuitions in my aeon lomax’s, i have used them in my sways twice and they were fine though.
@@Andrew_DC5 I did try them again today and there weren’t as bad I don’t think they where all the way in the boot properly, haven’t actually skated in them yet but I’ve no doubt they’ll be fine once broken in. I am loving them in the UFR’s though so gonna ride them for a while
Something I noticed, anytime I see someone skate something stock and then see the same boot with a MyFit Second Skin, the boots creaking is almost completely gone. Something about the MyFit liner makes the ride sound so much better. I love mine, and they have had the same affect on all 4 boots I've tried
Love the myfits 💯
I sold mine. I just couldn't get a good fit around my narrow foot.
Hard agree on the speed of these soulplates. Hands down the fastest grinding soulplate I've ever skated (I had the white variant fitted).
These boot hurt the arches of my feet. I tried a bunch of different liners, I had the same pain. Also I didn't like how much heel raise they have.
I keep my wax in my cooler so it’s always cool and refreshing to the touch #nomeltedwaxinmytrunk 😎💎🤘🏻
💯💯💙💙
i just know you live in the south. i would have never skated shirtless until i moved to houston
gotta say, totally agree with literally every point lol.
🙏🙏🤝
I love you
Is FR the same FR company from back in the 90’s?
Nah, the 90’s one was out of New York, this company are from France.
@@Andrew_DC5 thank you! Yes I almost stated I thought it was out of NY, but then just thought maybe that was mainly who reaped them and it was same company whole time. Thanks for clarifying!
They are owned by the owner of Seba, Seba had legal troubles and created FR to sell skates while the problem was fixed. Seemingly both brands are continuing, all good.
Keep your wax in a zip lock bag.... do y'all seriously just toss your wax in the trunk or car floor?😅🤣
😂😂😂
I keep my wax in a zip lock bag
Lol @ not wizard skates anymore
😂😂😂
Tupperware for wax!!
Keep your wax in a plastic zip lock bag

🙏🙏💙💙💙
