Just bought an Aeon Lomax after 10 years of not skating. My last skate was Roces Chapter 322 and I cracked the shell lol. Your instagram page inspired me to skate again. Thanks!
I just turned 38 years old, I started skating when I was 12. It has been about 4 years since I've skated BUT I just placed an order for white/black Aeon 60's from RollerWarehouse. I can't wait to try these out, thanks for the awesome videos and solid reviews.
@@BacktoBlading I guess I'll find out which one fits the best and then return the other one when they come but I appreciate the feedback and your videos keep it up
It’s been 15 years for me. Man, good for you. Skated remz beta version lol. As to the sticking on soul try maybe “scuffing”the soul plate on cement curb, worked for me.
Yeah if you wanted a white look boot and dont really have the time to paint a black boot yourself. The O'Neals are a black boot painted white on the top half :D
Nice vid! Just bought the aeon 60 Albert Hooi green skates to match the colour of my last name ;) Haven't skated in 20 years but I had a dream about blading a week ago and the nostalgia is just so strong! So yes, from a dream I'm going blading again ;) makes me wonder if there is some predictive programming going around in the marketing industry of inline skating? Anyways glad I had the dream none the less :D
I don't think the inline skating industry is that scientific with marketing, but there's to many of us old guys getting back in to be a coincidence, yeah? Hope you like your Hooi, those green look great!
Where did the live one go? I can’t watch live in the middle of the night but was enjoying the long version of this until YT froze, and then it was gone.
I'm not sure if you've tried it yet but I really recommend lacing from the boot up the liners as well. The support you get cranking those liners nice and snug around your leg is amazing. Makes the whole boot feel a lot more responsive too.
how is the sizing on these? i am usually a size 7-7.5 in mens. 7.5 yeezys and most mens shoes. my powerslide next are a 7-7.5 39/40 and fit nicely. what size would you recommend on these skates? thanks
Hey I have a question. What about exchangeable parts in the aon? They don't have the same screws as other skates right? Can I put other parts on there anyway? What if I wear down certain parts, can I replace them?
You can't change the frames or the soul plates as they have their unique unibody design. You can buy a whole new lower shell/soul/frame though. That design eliminates the need for bolts so on the bottom of the boot the only bolts are the four axles for your wheels. Up top the cuff is attached like normal with cuff bolts.
Hi friend! Did you have the opportunity to measure seba fr1? I have seba euro size 44 and I plan to order aeon 43-44. Is the block similar to Seba and Aeon?
Hello, I'm now waiting for my USD aeon 60 XIX, but i wonder about the fabrikated bearings. If you spin the wheels with your hand on the aeon 60 XIX do the wheels spin really fast or do the wheels stop after 1 or 2 seconds by them selfs. That was the case with my Roces M12 charcoal, the wheels were very "slow" because of the fabrikated bearings. I like em' fast. Hope you understand what I mean? Cheers from Sweden🇸🇪
@@BacktoBlading Thanx for responding. I've got my USD aeon 60 XIX yesterday. The bearings and wheels are superfast. Just got to get used to the speed of the wheels, have a great day👍
Hey man, I bought a Aeon 60 Sam Crofts Pro. I dont know if it is too small for me. The "top part" of the liner is open. It looks like my feet are to high :D. I skated in the 90s the K2 Fatty. I have no experience with those boots. Is it normal or do I have to take the next size? The liner fits good with my feed and I dont know if I get a bigger one if I buy the skate in the next size.
I know this is a lot to ask but I'm looking to buy some new skates I just turned 31 I stared skating when I was like 11 or 12 and I love your review on them USD AEON 60mm but I was looking at a few other ones. Out of these which ones do you think would be better, Razors Genesys, Roces 5th Element, Roces M12 Pro, Them skates, USD carbon team 2018 just let me know what you think thanks
The only complains I hear about these skates was the cuffs? I'm watching your video now and I didnt hear you mention anything about it so I'm curious what others are complaing about? Lol
@@BacktoBlading but are the inside of the boot soft? because right now the inside of my skates are hard so it hurts my ankle a lot so I'm trying to find a pair of skates that are soft inside, thx
I’d like to see a review of some aeons 60s with an intuition liner. But it’s cool the see some real reviews of skates since most of us don’t have a shop where we can try on skates anymore.
Back to Blading would love to see you try some of the still "iconic stuff", if they're at hand from you. Lowriders, Argons, Psirus, Salomon, classic Thrones, Fifth Element, Suedes, Paws... Just to see if they would stand the test of time. 😎
Wish I could wear USD Aeons but my foot is 1 size too big and Powerslide seems to refise to accommodate larger footed folks like me. WHY POWERSLIDE, WHYYYYYY!!????
Solutions are coming back! Nothing to announce yet, but two products in development. Aeon juice blocks would be interesting, if we do it I’ll send you a set. :)
I would love to skate with you. July is horrible though, can you pick a colder month? (kidding!) Are you on Facebook? Find me there and I'll add you to the local Facebook group for blading.
Listen my man, i've watched a lot of your videos now as at age 37 i am getting back to blading after about 18 years off skates,, and i have to know how you get those knee pads on while wearing skinny jeans? maybe it's just that i have huge legs from years of powerlifting and normal jeans are tight on me. either way, share the secret bud
These feel epic.. I have tried mine today and wow, what a smooth ride like a glove fit and a lovely feel in the heal. The straps and lacing both on the boot it's self as well as the my fit inner boot all help to get a snug hold while giving you room to move with the flex in the cuff. It felt glass smooth as I took the first and last rollin of the first session on these sk8 and all I can say is.. YES YES YES. Thanks for the video dude.. as always spot on. Keep it coming.
Back to Blading 100% I believe I have said before I would never go flat and stay anti rocker but man these puppies feel great.. I'm out again in the morning as I just can not leave them alone.. and the amount of other guys getting back into aggressive is amazing. I believe you have a big part in that so it's props to you dude... keep it coming keep it real. Peace out...
Thanks for the kind words. It really makes me happy to hear people getting back into it. I love to skate, and Back to Blading is my way to help the community grow. It’s amazing to see it working.
Back to Blading from what I see boss is growing like crazy... this summer is gonna be epic. Watch this space.... I am looking at doing a small video about my oxygen's today... I will be putting them to rest after a life of great memories and awesome times.
Just started skating about 3 days ago again for the first time in like 15 years. Pretty awesome. Forgot how much i loved it. Super cool channel Bro
I put some under cover 60 round profile wheels in these skates and it's amazing how how much better they feel on everything.
Mine are being delivered tomorrow so very excited! Never had usd before so really looking forward to trying them out!!!
Just bought an Aeon Lomax after 10 years of not skating. My last skate was Roces Chapter 322 and I cracked the shell lol. Your instagram page inspired me to skate again. Thanks!
Sweet! That’s a great Aeon, love the colorway. Huge upgrade from a chapter 322! Welcome back, tag me on IG when you post clips so I can see.
Finally I bought first 60 mm aeons and I love them!
Awesome! They’re amazing skates
Gonna get some to next month :)
I just turned 38 years old, I started skating when I was 12. It has been about 4 years since I've skated BUT I just placed an order for white/black Aeon 60's from RollerWarehouse. I can't wait to try these out, thanks for the awesome videos and solid reviews.
Oh man, you’re going to live those Aeon 60. I hope they fit you well. Glad to have you back.
@@BacktoBlading I actually ordered a single pair from rollerwarehouse and another pair from Inline Warehouse two different sizes.
@@BacktoBlading I guess I'll find out which one fits the best and then return the other one when they come but I appreciate the feedback and your videos keep it up
It’s been 15 years for me. Man, good for you. Skated remz beta version lol. As to the sticking on soul try maybe “scuffing”the soul plate on cement curb, worked for me.
Seemed like they broke in after a few grinds. Very strange though. Welcome back! Great time to be blading.
The white Aeon boots are slower than the black. It's to do with the plastic compound.
Have to agree. I skated the White Aeons and am now on the Charcoal Teams. They slide noticeably faster.
Oh really? That's interesting to me. I'l have to find some black ones then to compare.
So would the Billy O'Neals be a good solution?
Yeah if you wanted a white look boot and dont really have the time to paint a black boot yourself. The O'Neals are a black boot painted white on the top half :D
Pretty much everyone I've spoken to about this has said the same. :) I've not yet tried because im currently back on Xsjado's

Back to Blading and girls ;)

Yes! I forgot to do this but will definitely upgrade. Thanks for the tip.
I'm back to blading after 10 or 12 years and im so proud of you ..... Great video ..... (I want these aeons)

Some bearings need to be broken in. After a hour of skating see if they spin freely
@@BacktoBlading Thanx for responding. I've got my USD aeon 60 XIX yesterday. The bearings and wheels are superfast. Just got to get used to the speed of the wheels, have a great day👍

I have no experience with those boots. Is it normal or do I have to take the next size? The liner fits good with my feed and I dont know if I get a bigger one if I buy the skate in the next size.
I found the cuff to be a bit stiff for my liking, so i slapped a cj cuff on it otherwise the aeons feel pretty good :)
I think that's pretty common. I haven't tried swapping them out, quite like the cuff actually.
Aeons 60 lomax or new jack 60 pro ?
Aeons, no question.
I know this is a lot to ask but I'm looking to buy some new skates I just turned 31 I stared skating when I was like 11 or 12 and I love your review on them USD AEON 60mm but I was looking at a few other ones.

Wow. Of those I’d probably go with the 908s
I'm for sure getting the aeons when I get the chance I'm 10.5 and think your the same size is 9 10 fit good or should I get 11 12
Measure your feet in cm. I’m 28.5 and the 10.5 is perfect
The only complains I hear about these skates was the cuffs? I'm watching your video now and I didnt hear you mention anything about it so I'm curious what others are complaing about? Lol
I never had an issue with the cuffs. Only thing I had an issue with was the souls being a bit slow.
I'm about to buy a pair of aggresive skates, could u recommend if these ones are better skates for beginners or are roces better?
I think Aeon 60 are the best skates for beginners. They’re easy to maintain and a great ride.
@@BacktoBlading but are the inside of the boot soft? because right now the inside of my skates are hard so it hurts my ankle a lot so I'm trying to find a pair of skates that are soft inside, thx
You should deff try newer k2s if you haven't. Flat frame is really great. The whole skate feels so good.
I've heard good things, though the large frame is way too long for me!
I’d like to see a review of some aeons 60s with an intuition liner. But it’s cool the see some real reviews of skates since most of us don’t have a shop where we can try on skates anymore.
Yeah, I need to get some Intuitions. They look awesome.
The last royal was sick!
Thanks! Only took a few tries this time around. Last week on the New Jacks was a battle. instagram.com/p/Bih35ixFkxr
Ah ah wow, there is no comparison with this one. By the way, I'm already following you with my insta: @14yearsafter
Oh cool! Thanks for the follow =)
Are you ever going to try classic skates, +BackToBlading?
That’s a great idea. What would you want to see?
Back to Blading would love to see you try some of the still "iconic stuff", if they're at hand from you. Lowriders, Argons, Psirus, Salomon, classic Thrones, Fifth Element, Suedes, Paws...
Just to see if they would stand the test of time. 😎
Totally. I have a few vintage frames I can try, will see about collecting the skates. =)
Back to Blading : Awesome! Let me know if and how it works. 😎
Wish I could wear USD Aeons but my foot is 1 size too big and Powerslide seems to refise to accommodate larger footed folks like me. WHY POWERSLIDE, WHYYYYYY!!????
I’ll try removing the strap and putting the laces through the holes. They feel so amazing like this
I need to do this. I had it like that last time, did it when I swapped them and now I ripped my laces.
nice grinds at the end. the handrail when? : )
That’s my birthday rail. August 5th it will be done. th-cam.com/video/cJaxW3_KNFY/w-d-xo.html
Try a pair of Xsjado`s, want to know how they stack up for you against other skates :)
I want a pair of the Shadows when they come out. Figure get the latest and greatest, see how they match up.
How do these compare to razor sl’s?
Been a while since I’ve skated SL, but the Aeon have an amazing frame. The soul is also perfect. Hard to beat
Back to Blading thank you for the reply! I recently ordered the lomax aeons, I’m real excited to skate them!
these skates good for wide feet?
They’re not bad, but more average width
bring back the solutions line and make a aeon juice block and some juice wings
Solutions are coming back! Nothing to announce yet, but two products in development. Aeon juice blocks would be interesting, if we do it I’ll send you a set. :)
I’ll be moving to nc Durham in July and I would like to skate with you
I would love to skate with you. July is horrible though, can you pick a colder month? (kidding!)
Are you on Facebook? Find me there and I'll add you to the local Facebook group for blading.
Back to Blading lol, how hot can it be in nc, I live in CA
I lived in CA for 30 years. There's nothing like the heat in NC. Just you wait!
Back to Blading I'll be just fine
11-12 aeon shell?
9/10 shell. Crazy that split yeah?
Back to Blading yeah!
Those go project inner soles screwed my feet and I didn't feel in control.
Oh? I'll keep an eye on it. They feel ok right now, and my feet aren't hurting after an hour long session.
Listen my man, i've watched a lot of your videos now as at age 37 i am getting back to blading after about 18 years off skates,, and i have to know how you get those knee pads on while wearing skinny jeans? maybe it's just that i have huge legs from years of powerlifting and normal jeans are tight on me. either way, share the secret bud
Ha! So the jeans are Levi’s stretchy jeans, and the pads are super low profile. It’s a tight fit but feels good!
Look at that groove

The white aeon with the grey cuff looks sharp
I thought so too. White skates though, when I look down it’s shocking.
Back to Blading meh, the dirt just gives them character.
