- NOTE: The Riedell Skates bearings do not have any writing on them and they sound rough and do not spin well. I don't know what they are.
Finally got my new Riedell skates in and here is a close up comparison.
The only regret for getting the Uptowns was not getting the Juices. I wasn’t sure I was going to be skating for a long time, but owning some decent skates is a game changer. I love my Uptowns, I put some roller bones wheels in it and I wouldn’t go without them. I recommend the Uptowns!
Thanks for posting this. It's just what I needed. I was on the fence. Thumbs up.
Just purchased these for $199! Thanks for the review. Can't wait to try them out!
Thanks for the review bruh!
I will be buying my son a new pair for his birthday.
Thanks for the review. I just ordered mine and will be picking them up today. I know I’ll have to break them in so I’m ready!
Riedell 595, laser plates, redline fan jets! 💪🏾🔥🌊
i can picture those yours in my head 🔥🔥💯. I've got two pairs of colorlab 395's. First is black boot red lace covers, reactor pro plates and SG monzas. My other pair is White boot red lace cover, aruis platinum plates with another set or monza's 😅
@@rellbeensavage_8181 unfortunately I hAve 595s and redline fanjets but don’t hAve the laser plate. I had to settle for a cheap plate but it’s a good one…. 😂
Getting a pair of Uptown’s soon and i’m stoked!
How are you liking them?
Very good review thanks for showing the inside of the skates.
love Man!!!I just turned 59 an I’m not doing everything crazy
Amen
i have the fames and the some old 120s on sure grip century plates. Both on fame wheels . I love them both; both fit well and are fun but I HATE the foam tongue on the 120s. the 120s seem pre-broken in since I got them used. I will be removing the foam and replacing with something that is less grippy. There are some videos of people doing that.
I'll have to check those videos out, thanks.
Carl, I'm a new skater so I'm in learning mode. My fames came last week, and I'm learning how to skate with them..but I have a question. How do I adjust the trucks so they can give me more pivot to make turns? These fames just have the top nut, so is that how these skates work? I don't want to break my neck or have these skates come apart.
I’m doggy now but it’s been a good amount of time and my gf convinced me to get a new pair. I love the way the Fames look to much
The Sonic Fames are a good, comfortable, light weight skate but they just don't hold up well if you skate a lot.
I just bought some skates, 120 riedell boots alone was $149 and bought a set of sure grip classic plates for $79 that comes with the jump bar, with mounting and tax+shipping it came up too $287.
Sounds like an awesome setup. You're going to love the durability and quality of the 120 boots! Have you staking on them yet?
@@allabouthim03 Your review was great!
And thank u!
I didnt get to skate in them yet
I ordered them Friday they come in monday, I cant wait to brake em in 😎
But i think you should definitely check out some sure grip plates and see if you like,
they are the best and last a life time!
@@2funkinbadbaby Where did you order from?
$149??? Where
@@TyHardNeNe at Rollerskatenation.com
But girl lemmi tell you!! The price on that boot went up to $179 because they are that good!
120 Riedell boot is made really well with genuine leather, also check out Sure Grip plates, the cheapest ones are $79 and they last a life time trust me my mom and dad had those plates and they lasted 50yrs used 🙏🏼🙌🏼
💯💪
How would you compare them in sizing? Did you wear the same size in both?
Yes, the same size. I wear a 9.5 to 10 sneaker. The 9 skate fit me perfectly.
Hi, can you please tell me more about the toe guard that you have on your Riedell ? Thank you 🙏🏾

Damn they just bust my head for 220 yesterday for my riedell AND took my toe stopper
Sorry to hear that Brother 😣. My skates actually came with jam plugs. I didn't want the plugs so the rink owner actually removed the plugs and gave me a brand new set of stoppers out of the pack. I probably should have said my skates did not come with the stoppers, sorry.
Have you broken your 120’s in yet and if you did how do you do it because I got some too and it’s irritating?
If this is the boot you've started skating with then your feet are probably having to get accustomed to just skating and breaking in a boot at the same time.
The boot feels fine, I find the tongue is what hurt the front of my leg, even with long socks. I could lace my previous boots all the way to the top with no issues. I find the 120 are more comfortable if I only lace them up to the 2nd set of hooks.
The tongue, as you know, has a rubber foam backing that is uncomfortable to me. I cut down a pair some ankle socks and slide them over the tongues, that worked out wonderfully for me for the shin pain.
I feel like I can't cross my feet they feel stiff even after adjusted I can only backward skate and feel I have complete control besides that they are good
@@agentkay_1456, have you tried not lacing all the way up? I just bought the Riedell Crew, which is also the 120 boot, and I've been leaving the upper-most speed hook unlaced and leaving the 2nd and 3rd ones really loose. This allows my ankle a bit more freedom. Once I break them in, I'll fully lace up. I was having so much trouble with crossovers, until these boots! The game has changed.
@@agentkay_1456 you may need to loosen your trucks
Have you noticed if the wheelbase of the uptown’s are wider than the sure grips?
Actually the sure grip truck base is about 4mm wider than the uptown.
i would love to have riedell uptowns but i really dont think its real leather boot..
I understand your reservations, but mine are real-thick leather👍🏽.
@@allabouthim03they're real leather, it's just not the same quality compared to Riedell's made to order/Custom built boots. With Riedell, you basically pay for exactly what you get so the more you spend the better the quality! & once you go Custom riedell, You'll never go back 😂😂🤷🏾
