  • It's getting nice out, which is a perfect time to get back to free skating! Flying Eagle sent me a pair of their F7 skates, but with a 110mm Super Sonic frame. I took them around Carrboro and Chapel Hill to see how they hold up.
    Disclosure: Flying Eagle sent me these skates for the purpose of a review.

    F110h are the most fun all around skates I've ever owned and I been at it since 95...you got all the pads homie, welcome back to blading and trust yourself on some gaps with those. They feel amazing with the added height and speed. You can jump over parked cars hoods with ease on flat ground, and am short lol. Keep up the great content!

    Nice review! I have these skates and also have a pair of F6 (my second pair of F6 Flying Eagle Falcons) . The F7 Optimum is great with the 3x110 (my current set-up) but also with the 4X80mm rockerable frame. It's a great company but as you said not always easy to find. I go to Thailand often and a skate shop there carries them. I've gotten all of my Flying Eagle skates from them for a lower price than Roex (Spain) or Inline Warehouse or Pro Skaters Place has them so I've been lucky. As you said, for the $200 price range they are as good as, if not better, than other similar options like Twister, FR, or Imperial. I try to feature my Flying Eagle Skates in all of my urban city skate videos. I'd be more than happy if they sent me a pair of carbon Drift skates to review/wear in my videos! (just in case Tracy from FE is reading...) .

    Thanks.
    It's often said FE 110 was lower due to the middle wheel shifted back. How lower was it, compared to traditional or general 110 skates, please?
    And, if possible, how was FE 110 compared to PS Next 110 with regard to low center of gravity?
    (I interpolated them on screens proportionately in juxtaposition, they appeared just about the same, with Next 110 only slightly lower by tiny a bit, but just on paper!)

      ​@@BacktoBlading Thank you for your reply. I have two questions about Trinity. Is the support so good that it is worth going with Powerslide? And does having larger wheels like 100mm really feel like you are skating with 80 mm?

      @@ShaugnBriggs what I feel about trinity is that they are more smooth and have a lower Center of gravity Compared to other skates. The supersonic might be a difference because due to the shifted wheel it can be also lower....
      I really think the biggest difference between those two skates will be if you want to have a symmetrical wheel setup or not.
      I personally would never go for big wheels without trinity but this might be the only exception.
      Im also really curious about that boot but I already have 2 3x110mm frames.
      Im looking for the flying eagle f7 Optimum with 80mm wheels but in Europe its nearly impossible to get them.
      I would have to Import them from canada and with all those fees I would have to pay 50% extra.

    Also to the blading community topic.
    It would help out allot if you had the next trick ready video ready sooner. I'm not saying it's your fault but I only had one day I could skate after you had posted the soul trick. While I had a fat session (which I could record during in prep for the tricks so again not your fault) literally the day before you posted the soul grind announcement. If you could have the next trick announcement ready say Wednesday morning that extra weekend would help out allot. Cropping the video and sending now for my soul grind.

      They are comfortable if you size correctly. My feet measure 27 cm by 11 cm and I wear a 43 in this model. Dollar for dollar, one of the best values out there for just over $200, but hard to find in stock anywhere.

      @@BacktoBlading I did more research, they aren't technically rockered, but when you put weight on the back 2 wheels in a 00x0 setup it creates a semi rockered feeling for turning, so you get the speed and stability benefits of a longer frame, and turn easier than a OOO setup apparently.
      I had no issue gliding and using big wheel skates even though I haven't skated since I was in middle and high school, and bought a pair of 4 wheel skates and used them for 3 days, weird how I'm now a better skater than I used to be by watching youtube videos and trying stuff out for 2 days.
