Getting back to inlining after pretty much an 18yr break, seems a lot of people my age are having our midlife crisis with skates rather than sports cars, just found your channel today, you are awesome man keep it up
I’ve been a subscriber for about two weeks, I’ve watched more than a couple videos(going to watch them all). Your a very talented skater! I skated from age 9-20, my skates during this time were RB trs Lightning’s, and RB Dirks(both pre UFS). I left the sport for 15 years. I got back into it at 36 with rec skates then urban, then later back to aggressive. I’m now 37 soon to be 38. There’s no inliners in my current area, I skate with skateboarders. My Local skate park is always filled with people. My skill set is severely diminished, I fall, I hurt myself even with full pads. But I still do it! What I’m trying to say is. Your next trick to learn is how to show your skill to an audience that’s not digital!! Help bring our sport back into the game, by showing it off in person!
Thanks for Subing ✌. That's so cool that your back rolling despite there being no local inliners, That's the real test on people. Daym that sounds scary but I'm all for it haha. I hate skating in front of people but when it goes well, it's amazing! I have no idea how I can do it more often tho. Thanks again for the support man 💪
Just do it! (Nike swoosh) you have said some tricks are scary, but did them! There are tricks I wouldn’t even think about doing anymore, but with Confidence in my abilities, I will do them. No matter who is watching! So, your next trick is skating in front of an audience.
Brandon...with you getting back into rolling again and noticing you in your vids cementing fundamentals once again, can I suggest to get that switch soul and other switch stances happening...? You'll appreciate your progression more, have more to work on and be more well rounded with your abilities. Just a thought... Keep Rollin and awesome edits dude as usual!
new m12's with King souls might end up being the best setup. I'm going to start again after 10 years or so and I'm going to pull the trigger on that setup. I would wait for the 5th elements but they're only releasing up to a size 10.5 and my big foot will not even be close to fitting. I'm so happy to see one of the og companies putting out a great product and having a killer team
Glad to hear you're getting back on the skates! Hope it goes well! Yeah the sizing on the 5th elements is so crazy. Same here, Roces is killing it atm.
That rail looks fun. City is going to do work to our park. It's all broken and falling apart. There's people pushing to cover it. I hope that's not what happens. I hope we get things to skate. Love the broll
Hello! I want start again in Freestyle after more 20 years ... What skates you recommend forma me? I do not get to understand everything you say, my English level is very low ... Magnificent channel!!
I'm glad you like my channel ✌🏻 thank you. I would reccomend the roces m12 if you can try it on first. Otherwise razor SL is a safe move. I hope that helps. ✌🏻
@@BrandonDrummond Thanks so much !! Roces 12 is my first option,cheap,quality and cool...jiji. I Will continue see your vídeos..there are good for me learn. 👍👋🤙
Hey, I've had the M12s the USD UFS Throne (personal fave) and some XSJADOs. I've also tried my friends' Razors SL, usd Carbons and REMZ (way too flexy). And I find my self wondering: From the 90s all the way to 2010-2015, give or take, every brand was trying to improve on the older skates. I doubt everything was done just to brag some new innovation. With that in mind, I cannot see how the M12 and similar boots like the THEM e.g. can be considered better or even equally good to most of the newer designs. Personally, I feel it's mainly the marketing and the Pros brands like ROCES etc have managed to get over the past few years. Any thoughts?
I think you're on to something there. I think the pros greatly effect how I feel about a skate, But that only goes so far.If a skate is bad people will stop skating it. I think the main point is you can't ever say 1 skate is better than another because its all preference. Some people like a stiff skate, some people like a flexy one. Some people want huge souls others want smaller. There's definitely a point to be made tho. Cheers for the comment.
Do you ever find that the center grind plate is too narrow in relation to the inner two wheels? that it eats up the inner two wheels and they get in the way? I loved my Roces back in the day but this is what I found to be the case so I had to remove the inner two wheels, which wasn't ideal. Because of that reason I am now looking into getting Razors.
Maybe make a pvc rail. You probably could get a 3-4 meter pipe and make a rail. That may be good if you want to make some tutorials with out getting to Tree Tops.
Brandon Drummond thanks 🤟🏽 I’m getting the M12 roces next week I’m wondering if they’re heavy or light though haha I currently have the alchemy skates which weigh a ton
@@BrandonDrummond Still decent though 👌 Darkside is when you approach a box or ledge that you can grind the opposite side of, and 'topside' the far away edge. So a darkside kind grind would look like an a/o mizu as you jump over the ledge then land kind grind on the opposite edge. Wow that's so annoying to describe 😂
@@BrandonDrummond Only double barrel handrails etc. Here's a nice ao top porn to darkside top porn as an example th-cam.com/video/9hC5IizIdEQ/w-d-xo.html
Hell Yeah man they look sick! tryna to get some new skates soon myself and this was a good go to. Check out our channel while your at it! Denver Colorado bladers got yo back!

I haven’t skated in 15 years, about to turn 37 and so keen to boot up and go kill myself haha. Ah the thought of just lacing up makes me tired 😂
Also used to roll on RB durks, only threw them away a month ago
Also man, were our own worse critic's...don't be harsh on yourself. Your a great skater, you love the art and your smooth as! Keep positive!
Cheers man. Appreciate the kind words
Hey I just discovered your channel. I come from France and I'm happy to see regular content about rollerblade :D

Oh man, what a lovely little skate park. NZ looks so cool!
Its all the parks here a very average but nz is pretty cool haha
@@BrandonDrummond lucky you guys lol where i live we don’t even have a quarterpipe
Brandon...with you getting back into rolling again and noticing you in your vids cementing fundamentals once again, can I suggest to get that switch soul and other switch stances happening...?

Thats a good idea! I'll do a switch only session next week. Cheers for the suggestion man ✌🏻. Hope coming back to skating has been good.

Holy f*** inline isn't dead!!!!
In North America maybe, not in Europe/China/Japan/Australia...there's a whole world out there mate

Love the broll
That's lame as. Hope they pull through.
Glad you like it. Thanks man ✌🏻

I think thats just a flat issue. Some frames with a lower h block should help. I havnt had much issue with that in there skates.
Maybe make a pvc rail. You probably could get a 3-4 meter pipe and make a rail. That may be good if you want to make some tutorials with out getting to Tree Tops.
That'd be dope. I'd love that. Think I just miss my home skate park where I filmed my other tutorials.
What is that backpack?
Bladeclub bag. Its sooo good. Check my review :)
th-cam.com/video/9QBVI0O3DwY/w-d-xo.html
What kind of camera 📷 are you using
Canon 700d and a gopro session. ✌🏻
Have you tried aeons yet m8?
No not yet. I would love to tho.
Is that skate bag expensive,
It wasnt cheap. I dont think you can buy it anymore tho. Its called the bladeclub bag. Its very good
Brandon Drummond thanks 🤟🏽 I’m getting the M12 roces next week I’m wondering if they’re heavy or light though haha I currently have the alchemy skates which weigh a ton
They aren't heavy. Not sure on exact wieght tho. What m12s were you planning on getting?
Brandon Drummond literally the same ones as yours but in white haha
Tutorials will be awesome. Looking forward to them.
Is it true the M12s run/fit small?
They run narrow. So if you have a wide foot you may no fit them.
Sorry to be nitpicky but your kinds were a bit 'farside,' not darkside. Keep up the cool vids man :)
I wss landing lava ay? Haha. What would dark side mean? Cheers man, will do
@@BrandonDrummond Still decent though 👌
Darkside is when you approach a box or ledge that you can grind the opposite side of, and 'topside' the far away edge. So a darkside kind grind would look like an a/o mizu as you jump over the ledge then land kind grind on the opposite edge. Wow that's so annoying to describe 😂
Hahahaha i think I got you. So you cant darkside a rail right?
