    I don’t support companies outside skating (energy suppliers, banks etc) that behave like Razors. The list of bad decisions they have made over the years has convinced me there is always another skate than theirs I can skate! Terrible company 😂

    I just switched from 909s to aeons. I think it's a far superior skate. I'm not very happy my intuitions dont fit but I can deal with the 2nd skins. I took out the heal pads for a $14 insole, added some sliqks (which is very necessary) and put some super bullet wheels on. I feel like these skates are half the weight of my 909s. I had groin issues for the last 6 months and they went away right after I switched. It might be worth dusting off an old pair, adding some sliqks and giving them another chance.

    • @AlmostLakai94
      @AlmostLakai94 2 роки тому

      As someone who doesn't grind much (and if I do it's always at a park on coping) Aeons are definitely my favorite skate. The lowness and weight makes transition and jumps in general seem so much more comfortable. So I definitely agree 😂

    I missed your videos so much! Awesome to see you back! I got back into inline skating last year with a pair of Cults but started picking up on all the awesome stuff brands like Them and Mesmer were doing in the community that I ended up picking up 2 pairs of Thems and the new Mesmers. I recently sold my Cults which was an easy decision because of how great my other skates fit in comparison and how premium they feel, but after seeing how Razors treats their team, I can't see supporting a brand like that. I do agree that the Cults slide well but I have my Mesmers for that now. Looking forward to more content!

I think us as the consumers should focus our complaints more on the quality of the product rather than how well the company treats its riders. For example Them treats their riders extremely well but the first runs of 908s weren’t great and the hardware that was on my 909s was terrible. I heard they’ve improved it but I lost a cuffbolt on like the second session ad the bridge soulplate hardware rattled and the soulplate mounting screw on one boot stripped itself so it can’t receive bolts.

    I completely dropped my interest in getting a pair of Razors anything for my first pair. Recently, I heard they increased their pro royalties from $3 per purchase to $30 per purchase. It's a HUGE step in the right direction and in redeeming themselves, but they still have a ways to go. That whole debacle with their treatment of Jeph Howard after his accident and subsequent recovery which he is still going through was a HUGE smear in their reputation. Then losing, what was it, a third of their pro riders due to that and stuff brought to light about the founder/owner by employees and the pros who left as well as Jeph? Yeah, they have a long way to go to recover, if they do. I don't think they should cover their pros' medical bills or anything, but the royalties they paid were abysmal and the owner only donated $100 when the owner of a competitor company owner, I can't remember who or what company, donated something like $500? But, I did like how they made a raffle where if you donate at least $10 to Jeph's gofundme, you have a chance to win a pair of Jeph's pro skates. It's kind of a salt in the wound sorta feel, but at least they did something like that. As it stands, I'm looking to get a pair of USD Sway 60's with Roces Street frames through RollerWarhouse using their custom skate builder and their free shipping promo, coming to $174 at the end of everything.
    But, if you already have Razors, you already gave them your money and support. I don't have anything against already skating them. I've been through this conversation with a couple friends a couple times about a game called Warhammer 40k. They dropped the game all together, a few even already sold every figure they had for the game, due to the company's own smear campaign brought on by employees and partner stores. Unfair employee treatment and pay, severe royalty payments for smaller hobby stores selling their products, etc. Then they came out with a version 2 of the rules for the version of the game my friends and I played that muddied and confused the game. Then started taking down ebay, and other site, listings reselling figures for the games and copyright striking youtube videos made by fans. They even took a couple of the bigger youtube channels to court over free-use of their IP in fan-made content. I told my friends we can keep playing because we already have the rule books and all the figures we need. The company won't be getting anymore patronage from us. They said no.
