Up'n'away Posted April 19, 2007 Report Share Posted April 19, 2007 Well, i got these as a little present ,all ways fancied a go on them so yeah The wheels slip out in a flash and then a little cover goes over so you can wear them as a pair of normal shoes, tryed them on my bike and i swear its easier to pedal kick !Does any one own a pair or could tell me if there is any , well funer side to them (other than going from a-b on your heels!)?Looking at you tube there are some people grinding but not to sure if there different to the one i got.Cheers brad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mat hudson Posted April 19, 2007 Report Share Posted April 19, 2007 same kinda soul pattern as orchid shoes so should be nice and grippy! they are REALLY gay though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Campbell Posted April 19, 2007 Report Share Posted April 19, 2007 (edited) I bought some about 5/6 years ago (before they took off). Still got them, had a play the other day, loads of fun. I've seen videos of people doing a few bits and bobs but they are more just a bit of fun. I could jump and spin etc on them. Best thing about them was using them at my old place of work (halfords) nice smooth hard floor and plenty of confused customers! Great fun but careful when used as normal shoes I damaged the wheel holders and it's VERY hard to get them in and out now. Also you look ridiculous walking with the wheels in!

(or class A's)I think they were going to give them to me no matter what. I said I wanted Maggies, bit too much maybe - or they would have brought Ice Creams!But apparently they do them in size 9 - and that's the size they ordered.

Up'n'away Posted April 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2007 (edited) Haha ah yeah kids shoes, thats why they make them in adult sizes. The only thing which has held me back from boxing them up and taking them back is this : Edit : You cant ride your trials down the crisp isle at sainsburys now can you?

Tomm Posted April 19, 2007 Report Share Posted April 19, 2007 I think they look kinda cool, I'd like to try some for about half an hour. After that I'd just get bored so they'd be a total waste of money. P.S. That video was kinda cool but they're still all about 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fixed Pants™ Posted April 19, 2007 Report Share Posted April 19, 2007 A girl (about 11, i think) has them, along with a load of other mugs, she was walking her dog (dog was pulling her along at about 10mph) she fell over and broke her arm!They're shit, they're f**king 70 quid and they're annoying as f**k.

Fixed Pants™ Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 Nope. However, she's 19 and in uni, so there is a possibility she has them at uni (she's home atm) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
