  • After a very painful first day skating the Adapt Brutale aggressive inline skates I was not hopeful about getting these skates to work for me. But after some very extreme heat molding, they have started to feel a lot better! This video was my second full day skating them. Full review coming soon. You can get these handmade aggressive skates for yourself here: www.adaptbrand.com/product-pa...
    Thanks again to Adapt brand for giving me these skates to review.

    I have the same pressure point, 4-5 sessions in full summer heat did the trick on my last ones. Now breaking in a new pair. The pain, cursing and wining is worth it in the end 😎

    I see a couple of comments that Brandon is trying really hard to make the Adapts look good - I would suggest he is bending over backwards to be fair and professional.
    It would have been very easy for Brandon to have simply written the skates off after the first session - but instead he persevered to the point where he can give a balanced review. I would note that there is a SIGNIFICANT difference between an unprompted review and a review given in a 'professional' capacity - in the latter instance, the reviewer has to take every measure possible in order to get the product to perform, not only out of respect to the supplier, but also to reflect true due diligence per people potentially coming back at him and saying 'But did you X?', or 'Why didn't you Y?'.
    You may, of course, ask if it is really encumbant on a reviewer to bend over backwards, and I would respond that it is product dependent. To that end, where the product is being presented as a PERFORMANCE, HIGH-END product, and there are multiple points of positive commentary out there the default position should be to test to the point where you can definitively provide actual reasons for you position instead of reverting to 'Nah Bro, they were shit'.

    Awesome to see you actually enjoying these now :) best looking skate on the market Adapt should do more to get their name out there like this, coz its not like you can just go on loco or visit your local skate shop to buy a pair. Massive shout out to Adapt for sending them out for you to review

      I did not think I was gonna ever fully enjoy skating these so this session was so hype. I completely agree! The review i end up making on these skates will be one of my most important videos 😅 Thanks again MoMo

    Glad you are starting to gel with them, best skates on the market without a doubt! The downsizing is such a huge benefit, although it's more actually getting a size that fits your foot rather than a plastic shell that is often too big/small!

    A note on the sizing. My Adapts are listed as EU40 and are 265mm. My carbon EU40 is 258mm and 41 is 266mm. So Adapt is already sizing you down one.

  • @jacobs_quest
    @jacobs_quest Рік тому +3

    Someone must have messed up on the custom sizing somewhere because when I got mine they were the comfiest skates I ever wore and remained that way, the interior padding has only thinned a little bit and never got pressure points. You should not have had to heat mold them especially that many times or put anything in them. Glad you got them to feel better though, nice video! ✌️

    • @BrandonDrummond
      @BrandonDrummond  Рік тому +3

      Cheers for watching Jacob. I've been hearing a lot of people saying the same as you but just as much saying they had to really heat mold them to get them to work. I'm guessing it's all down to the shape of your foot. I agree though a skate shouldn't need this much effort put in to get them to a skatable fit.

    • @jacobs_quest
      @jacobs_quest Рік тому +2

      @@BrandonDrummond yeah I don’t think it should have took that much effort. Everyone’s foot is different though like you said with the shape of feet too, not just about length. As long as they feel okay in the end though right haha

  • @JustAnotherBlader
    @JustAnotherBlader Рік тому +1

    Take out the footbed and compare it to your foot. If it is smaller than your foot, they messed up your sizing. That’s what Adapt says in their UA-cam videos.

    Are you saying that the insanely tight toe box finally stretched a bit. My toe is crammed into the top toe box. Feels like I may not be able to skate these 😢

  • @deepfake8401
    @deepfake8401 Рік тому

    i don't find the combination of the adapt soul and frame together to be the best sliding option available. i found that having either an injection molded or 3d printed frame wall in combination with the soul, or an injection molded soul with the symetric frame to slide the best. something about the coefficient of friction being the same with the soul and frame seems to make it stick more on soul plate grinds for me.

  • @andrewblanton5397
    @andrewblanton5397 Рік тому +1

    Back to blading said he ordered 1/2 size smaller than usual and has had great feedback. Wonder why yours were so much tighter? How has the length inside been?

    • @BrandonDrummond
      @BrandonDrummond  Рік тому +1

      I'm skating the size Adapt chose for me after measuring my feet. I think I'm just one of the unlucky bunch that have to put the work into these skates. The length is still tight right now but it's getting better every session.

    Super annoying, I just recently after 10 or more sessions I developed a preasure point on my left ankle that is so bad, that it now even hurts skating my other skates... guess I'll also have to heatmold the left one, yet I've only heatmolded the right ones

    You downsized to a 7?!? Dude I ride 7-8s usually. What size adapt would I skate? 5/6?!? 4? Do they even make ‘em that small??? Lol great video Brandon. Glad to see those skates are starting to work with you a bit 🤘🏽

    • @Fluxtroid
      @Fluxtroid Рік тому +2

      So they have a process for measuring your feet in mm and they then reccomend the size from there - listen to their reccommendation. I didn't want to size down as much as they said and I wish I did.

    • @BrandonDrummond
      @BrandonDrummond  Рік тому +3

      Cheers for watching man! Keeping killing it on IG! From what Killbot commented it seems there sizing is different to other skates where an Adapt US7 is more like a USD 8. Adapt gets pictures of your feet and gives you a size recommendation. I think most people usually end up going down 1- 1.5 sizes. The skate is made to be the exact same size as your foot, not buffer at your toes. We'll see if in the long term its worth all the work to get them comfortable 😅
