Triple Eight Brainsaver Skateboard Helmet - Rubber Black Review

Triple Eight Brainsaver Skateboard Helmet - Rubber Black
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I needed a helmet because you have to have one to ride a bike or waveboard on base. After a bunch of reasearch and trying to read other reviews, I decided on this one because i did not want a normal looking bike helmet. The rubber coating on the outside is very smooth and it looks good too.

Pros:
-There are multiple air vents (11 of them total) to keep your head cool while riding.

-The sweatband material absorbers that cover the inside of the helmet are easily removable via velcro, which makes for easy washing when they get too dirty.

-Thick foam on the top for protection.

-Does not move too much when properly adjusted and does not sink down into your field of vision.

-Accomodates glasses with no problem

Cons:
-The price is a little more, but it isn't that much more than comparable models/styles. Depending on brand its about 5-10 dollars more.

-Size, I wear a 7 1/4 hat size and I ordered a large. The size chart says that it should accomodate up to a 59cm (7 3/8) but it fits a bit tight.
7 1/4 is approaching the limits of comfort.

I would recommend this helmet to those that wear the size listed. Hopefully I will never have to see if it will protect me from a split skull or concussion, but if I crash I will post an update.

Rollerblade Pro XT Inline Skates Review

Rollerblade Pro XT Inline Skates
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
My first impression was of amazement and excitement when I received my skates. Unfortunately, my happiness started to fade away when I first used them. The first flaw in the design are the wheels. I was skating in a basemanet (smooth floor) and my wheels started to crack everywhere. On the third day of skating, one of wheels was completeley destroyed, even though I never took the skates through a rough surface.

Even though, I had a bad experience with the wheels, I quickly changed them for some Hyper Wheels. Things ran smoother after that, until yesterday (two weeks later!!!) when the joint on my boot fell off. So now, one of my skates is not supporting my leg or ankle, making me wobble from side to side.

I don't know if it's just my luck, or this product is faulty, since a friend of mine (a girl) has bought the same skates (but obviously te women's line), and she has no complains until now.

As for me, I'm buying a new pair of skates, since these hace caused me a lot of trouble. If you need more proof, here's a link with some photos of my wheel and the skate that broke:

I also have a Protec Ace Skate, which is a hard-foam CPSC cert. helmet.

Night and day difference in comfort.You really forget you are wearing a lid

with the Triple 8.The terry cloth lining keeps sweat from running down your face

in the deep south.For bombing big hills at speed, I'll stick to the hard foam or

full face helmet, but for general cruising/ freeriding on my longboard I'm wearing

this one.

Rollerblade Astro 8 Inline Skates Review

These are the last skates Rollerblade made with the Advanced Braking Technology (ABT), which was an excellent aid to help beginners to learn braking and a totally acceptable braking method for experienced skaters also.Sad, and it will be missed. Suspect it was a victim of cost cutting during these the poor economic times.
The down side of the Astro 8.0 is that the wheel frame is not square to the boot frame and they need to be shimmed square to be useable.Later Rollerblades have a one piece wheel/boot frame which would eliminate allignment quality control problems in the third world countries where they are made and assembled.

Very nice set of inline skates. Just like any other new set of skates it is takes a short time for the bearings and wheels to get broken in. Build and quality are very good. The aluminum frame is very nice compared to the plastic frames, the 80mm wheels are pretty quick even though they are not broken in. The skates were accurately described and were delivered in a timely manner.

Rollerblade Fury Aggressive Skates Review

Average Reviews:

If you are not sure your child will get into aggressive inline skating, you might want to get these. However, if they like the sport, they will most certainly want a REAL pair of aggressive skates within a month. Having decent equipment makes all the difference. I would recommend Razor or USD Junior skates which run around 100 bucks and are adjustable up to 4 sizes. The TRS Junior skate by rollerblade is better than this Fury skate, but not nearly as good as the other 2 junior skates mentioned. If you are not a junior size, I would recommend any other Rollerblade aggressive models...some are as cheap as 130$ or any Razor models.I have been skating for 11 year and have taught for many years.

Besides the fact this helmet is pink and matches my hair. I love this helmet because it fits me PERFECTLY! I wear this in a small and it fits my head perfect. I wear a medium in protec helmets, but the medium is a tad big and the Smalls were a tad small. So I am stoked to have this helmet. I can wear sunglasses with this Triple 8 helmet and it does not pinch my head or my ears. I upgraded and got the sweatsaver band padding in my helmet...which they do not offer in the pink. I am glad to upgraded...on hot summer days the sweatsaver...saves me from a sweaty face. I have bashed my head with this helmet on in the skate park, face planted with it in dirt and grass. It has saved my head so many times and I have loved this helmet so very much. It is so comfortable I never notice I am wearing it and never feel dumb or lame wearing this either.

These are tight and too small for a grown man. They cut into my legs and arms. The so-called extra large set seem like they were made for a 10 year old. Now that I think of it, I should just give them to my 10 year old.

Haven't crashed yet to test out the protection, but they don't seem too promising in that department...

I gave these rollerblades as a gift and my nephew couldnt even stand up because the rollerblades had no grip and he just slid around and they were not safe. I contacted the seller and they contacted me back promptly but their return policy SUCKS! All I could get was a credit and they were going to charge me a %10 restocking fee if they didnt get the rollerblades back within 10 days of contacting me. Crappy product... even crappier return policy. Save your time and money... if you want cheap rollerblades that are at least safe, go to Wal mart or Targert.

I haven't been on blades in years and recently have been feeling that old itch again. First off these blades are not for beginners out of the box they do not come with the brake outmatched, which for me is a huge plus because Ive always taken the back brake off. The barrings are nice and smooth and seem to roll forever. They have a really nice weight to them, not too heavy at all. The sizing is a little big, comparing to my shoe size, I ordered the size 11 and I usually fit in about a 9.5-10.5 shoe. The colors are nice not tacky. Being a former soldier I the DIGI-CAM kind of swayed me a little. As far as K2 is concerned these skates are classified in their "Commission" line. Which is second to the aggressive skate. In other words this is a pretty high end piece of equipment again not for beginners. So to wrap this up I would recommend these to just about any one that's more than comfortable on 8 wheels, you wont be sorry.

The RB-10s are nice but not nicer than my old lightning TRS that I got back some 15 years ago for less money. The wheels are nice and big and the bearings will keep you moving. The boot isn't the most comfortable for being Rollerblade's top of the line memory foam. I wanted to try the boots on before buying them but couldn't find any local shops that sell the higher end boot. For the quality, I would recommend just going to Big 5 or the like and getting a hundred dollar pair.
