Arată identic cu FRul. Cel puţin plasticul pare la fel de ieftin cu cel de pe FR. Nu-nţeleg exact strategia din spatele acestui produs ţinând cont că erau deja free-skateuri în gama Powerslide.

Mie mi se pare ca seamana al naibii de mult cu vechile Tecnica Twister. Cel putin partea de jos , fara cuff. De fapt pare un fel de mix Tecnica Twister-Seba FR.

Eu sunt curios cum au facut X-slot-ul, sper ca este pe lungime in gheata... asa se poate folosi usor si alte sine. Cel putin asa este la Hardcore Evo acum.

My German colleague next to me designed these, so I've had a little bit of input (not as much as I would have liked). Anyway, Anyone who remember viper frames will be quick to see the resemblance, as it is a very similar aluminium extrusion. I've be riding those frames for a while and boy it's a stiff frame, super responsive and bullet proof. I've also tried the complete pair as prototypes and I was amazed at how such a cheap skate can do wonders. This is not only my opinion, Skali paid us a visit in January and tried them too. He was also very impressed and he could pull-of some chicken legs and sevens, only seconds after putting them on.
I've been riding twisters for about 4 years now, and honestly, I'm thinking of buying a pair, they are very confortable, they have even a branded Sifika liner! For those of you who don't know, sfika is a shoe and liner brand for agressive skaters.
The shell looks a bit cheap and like a copy of current hardshell models, but on the plus side it's got X-slot, meaning you can adjust the position of the frame, it's sturdy and you feel well protected. It's simple design that works and it's there to last.
All in all, I recomend this skate as a winter beater. Perfect for rainy suicide skates, daily commute or the occasional slalom session.
Disclaimer: I'm not working for Powerslide any more and do not get advantages for its promotion. My words truly reflect my feelings. blablabla
It is exactly the same scenario with the twisters, although, I find it actualy improved it. It's got a wider fit around the midlle of the skate, a better cuff and longitudinal mounting adjustment (like the hardcore evo)
Se pare ca e cea mai "mica" din clasa. Probabil si cea mai ieftina. Daca e Powerslide, atunci o poti gasi prin cei de la www.skateworld.ro, Alina. Posibil chiar sa aibe pe stoc si sa o probezi sau sa te intelegi cu ei sa vezi intai modelul si apoi sa achitizionezi, daca asta e intentia ta.
stiti vreunul cum daca pot gasi frame-ul separat, si de unde il pot lua ? cu tot cu roti. am un boot la care vreau sa-i pun un frame fsk si asta e cam ce cautam...

Bănuiesc că atunci când vreţi câte ceva mai căutaţi şi părerile altora. Sunt destul de uşor de găsit cu google.
Ce nu-nţeleg eu este de ce zic că frameul e de thumbs up. Din poze pare foarte firav, asemănător cu cel de Twister, frame de care mă feresc de când am avut Twister II.

Are totuşi ranforsări transversale, ar trebui să fie ţeapăn. Problema este la gheată din ce am înţeles, ceda blocul de prindere. E posibil să fi rezolvat însă.
