I ordered some last week, 10us for Medium shell, pre order as they have sold out, mid February for delivery. Really looking forward to trying them out. I currently have Medium Ridders which feel like home.
I really wish companies made more of a "barefoot" style toe box for the natural splay. i wear barefoot shoes now( i have flat wide hobbit like feet) and its such a game changer, too many skates squish my feet. the only ones that didnt hurt were size 9 factions, or medium standards
The size 9 blue 908s with the first run of Them's Intuitions were a slop factory in any amount of heat and I'm getting so much cramming in 8-8.5 909s with that size Premiums. My feet are ready for the shmediums I think.
@@longtermsquatter great skate abs yes I’ve skated them and strongly dislike any soulplates that only attach through the UFS bolts. Standard soul mounting is the way to do it.
@MushroomBlading so do the standards have the generous toe box? I thought they looked lacking in this area. Would a little drilling not remedy the soul plate issue?
@ The standards have not as much room for my big toe as the Sebas do. I like the companies to improve the skates for me from the factory… because you definitely don’t want to let me near a skate with a drill.
I'm a rollerblader who's been out of the game for a while. I know this is intentionally angled towards aggressive, but I'm curious about how my old V2 in my gutted igors compare to this new boot "technology"

I second this! 👆

I really would love to buy a pair 10-10.5 in Europe. But they're not available anymore!
Seba cj prime has a generous toe box for toe splay. Have you skated the primes aggressive? If so, what are your thoughts on it?

Off topic. Who is your favorite tall skater? I'm 6'1 and I need some inspiration.
Jon Elliot, Seth Minor and Bryan Jaggers and I also love Will Gordon and Chris Farmer.
Will the 10 liner fit in a shmedium?
@@alexhaigh5010 very likely yes.
Heat molding should help quite a bit with the forefoot volume issue! I know you're a break-them-in-naturally traditionalist but give it a shot.

What is your mondo?
@@Joey_Vicario 27.5
@@MushroomBlading I'm just under 270. I think the 8-8.5 would probably be the best fit for me, but I'm not sure
@ the 9-9.5 is a tad short for me so you would fit it real nice probably
@@MushroomBlading I appreciate the feedback. I like the fact that it's shorter than the premium intuition
Compared to the grey ones, do these new ones fill out the 909 shell more, less, or about the same?
I never heat mold. I can't find a better intuition liner than the wizard liners.
