@@LaLa4iZ I agree matey, the Sway was originally quite a low budget skate but has undergone improvements over the years and is now definitely an under rated skate, and this skate is a great contender in the £200 mark and as I've said alot lol, alot nicer in person
They're a real good skate for the price and the adjustable cuff height is a sick feature! Have you tried putting new frames on them at all? Mine got delivered yesterday and I bought some new FLT4 frames to try a flat wheel setup with them, but the front frame bolt isn't long enough to get into the soul plate and the spare Razor bolts are slightly too small to stay in place. Wondered if anyone had any issues or if was just these frames 😅
@@StuartOnWheels I've kept with the original frames for now, I always find that to many people swap things out straight away, I haven't had any issues with these frames yet, I understand swapping stock wheels out, but these frames seem pretty good, so I couldn't say about the length of the bolts for now I'm afraid, have you had a skate with the original frames to see what you think, like you say they are an extremely good value skate for sure
@@TheClewlows Not made it to the park yet but skated them around the estate when i got them for 5 mins and they feel pretty solid! No worries bro I haven't skated a flat setup in yearrrs so i got some to try out but they just didn't fit these haha
@@StuartOnWheels faredoos, you can get bolts from hardware stores and sometimes cut them to length if that helps, hope you enjoy them once you get to your local park/skate spot
Am 35 years old, used to skate in my Early teens and skating was huge back then. It was a huge part of my childhood and I don’t get how it’s hell off. There is so much style in skating but these days it’s dead. It upsets me because back in the day it was so big and dope as fuck. The greatest skate ever made was Razor Murders! So sick! I really hope it comes back one day because it deserves it!
@@FLOYD-MAYWEATHER-TBE skating is back it never really went away it was just no longer mainstream, it's still massive and since covid has had a great come back in numbers, especially with us older skaters coming back for fun, get yaself back on the skates and enjoy yourself
@@FLOYD-MAYWEATHER-TBE all depends where you are, maybe a fall off in your area, it's not as big as it was in the 90s, but it's on us to push it and be seen, when ever we go events it's always busy with a great turn out, it's on the rise again my friend
@@gavinhind2391 yeah man, I loved mine in 98 I was alot better back then, click on community on my page and there a video of me from 98 to 2000 lol, few clips with the oxygens on
Had a feel of the skates at the capital rollas comp and the designer of the skate showed me the cuff situation has been resolved! 👍
@@that_which_is_not mine are preproduction models, hence why the cuff issue has been resolved, hope you liked them at the show was an awesome day
Thank you! I have been wondering about these skates.
@@savortheflavorrollerblading there awesome for the price, thanks for watching and commenting
Great review fella 👍
@@woooshskates7248 cheers pal, appreciate it 👍
I think they will be like the Sway, branded as a lower brand but still epic to skate. Plus like you said it's there first skate UK based.

I have big toe knuckles from breaking them multiple times. How is the toe box on these compared to Aeons?
@@AntwonJenkins I would say that the aeons toe box on the size 10/11 is wider, but the echos is probably taller
@@TheClewlows thank you so much for the quick reply and info

@@TheClewlows it definitely went away, back in early 2000 skate parks where dominated by skaters, now I don’t see a single skater and any skate parks

Argons 1.0 anybody heard of them? I was good in my prime in the 90s. Great skill to be able to really skate ;)
