Thank you for the great review. I loved the format! You have so many good observations on the details of the skates, it’s impressive to hear and I can comfortable tell you, that lot’s of the things you mention was designed on purpose. I will shoot a video soon where I break down these details a lot more, thank you for the inspiration to do so! All the best, Jacob from echo skates
Jonathan, bro this was one of the best skate reviews I’ve ever watched… it’s such a simple idea, but I don’t think anybody has done it yet; the way you interspersed skating then table talk then skating, then table talk, etc was so fresh. Of course, literally God-tier visual Fidelity and audio Fidelity as usual… that’s expected from JAD
Great review. Honestly best stock skates i owned, ever. And I started in the 90's with tarmac CE... confort is amazing, liner is really good (at the exception maybe of the patches which squeak a bit...). They are flexy and supportive which is not straightforward thinking but appears to be the best way to describe the feeling. The stock wheels seem to wear pretty fast, not sure of the durometer (probably lower than 90a) but they're fast Bearings are bearings and you have some additional ones in the antirockers which is great and such much better than grindblocks which can be loose and clicky IMO. buckles are very well protected, the cuff height system is great (even if not really really practical, but you don"t do it a each session). Only "negative" points so far would be: the inner sole which is very basic, the shock absorber that is not effective, and the hollowness of the soul plate that creates a hollow sound when you rock on the hblock (because im picky, sounds is not as satisfying as the omnis). At this price point, these are really really good skates if the sizing is ok for you (275mm long feet, skating the 42). I don't any other pair of stock skates that are so ggod out of the box, and so good, not to mention the red loctite on the threads
From your unboxing... I should have copped a pair. I have Cult level 1 almost here. I trust the cult. So I keep buying em. If only with how the sneaker stuff was and the Jordan 4s popularity... they bring back a cult7 or 8...
Dude I just tried my brand new JAD straps on my 909 setup and man…. It just feels natural! Sometimes with buckles I never know if I need 1 more click or not. With this just pull until it feels right and done! And gives a little too. I think I’m converted 😊plus I gotta support this man so that Heather keeps allowing him to run his channel 😅
@@c6moneypit8 I'm actually going to possibly try them on my old cults. Until I can drill out the new buckles cause I believe on level 1 they are riveted on... ive been wanting to strap up myself. But I'll admit I am fortunate to Set my skates once and it works for me. I kinda go loosey goosey

Again this makes me regret copping cults again. I do love cults. Excited to try the one piece souls on em.
Such a nice video! Thank you so much for sharing Jonathan! 🥰
Amazing review! Big thanks to Heather!
Man, you’re really good on those things! They remind me of a blend of bouer’s older aggressive skates with a mix of new roces style.
Go Heather!

i’ve never heard of this skate. they look cool
Jad strapped up out there.

that calm world shirt is dope! almost as good as the skating in those verves!
Thanks for this review!
How's the boot flex left-to-right?
I really enjoy the brand identity around this skate, too.
Flex is great! Might feel a little bite around the ankles with stock liners. But non existent with 909 liners.
Skates look fun
Those are really sweet.
Anything like a sway
I like em better than Sways. The shell fits me better. Better hardware. Maybe a little heavier than sway though.
Sold!
Not the best looking skate not the worst either. I just hope they are paying the couple of pros they have named well!
U can't call it a review is only fist impressions
@@kitderrick9800 6 session in? Unboxing?
I think that is more than enough for a review. I think you might be thinking of a long term review.
