    ===================================================
    In 1980, a group of ice hockey players in Minnesota were looking for a way to practice during the summer.[1] Scott and Brennan Olson formed the company Rollerblade, Inc., to sell skates with four polyurethane wheels arranged in a straight line on the bottom of a padded boot.[1] In 1988, Rollerblade introduced the first aggressive inline skate, the Rollerblade Lightning TRS. Aggressive inline skating developed as an organized sport in the early 1990s.[2] In 1994 the National Inline Skate Series, better known as NISS was launched as the first aggressive skating competition series. Promoters Rick Stark and Mark Billik sold Taco Bell on sponsoring the series for $150,000 and a six stop series was born. NISS, went strong for 5 years holding contests in Los Angeles, New York, Rome and Brazil. NISS was the first series to put aggressive inline on television with an ESPN deal for the 1994 series and later moving the competition series to PRIME TICKET-Fox Sports. The Aggressive Skaters Association (ASA) was formed by a number of aggressive inline skaters in 1995 as a forum to develop rules governing competitions and equipment.[2] The sport was included in the first ESPN X-Games in 1995 and included vertical ramp and street event competitions.[3] It reached its height in popularity in the late 90s, with mainstream movies like Disney's Brink! and other films. The brand "Senate", run by Arlo Eisenberg and several other prominent skaters, enjoyed mainstream popularity during the 1990s.
    Founded by company owners/skating legends Brian Shima, Jon Julio, and Kato Mateu and supported by all major skate companies, the World Rolling Series (WRS) links together the best skaters, event organizers, retailers and skate parks and aims to "create a tighter knit community, increase overall awareness and set a higher standard for aggressive rollerblading." The WRS circuit started in 2009 with 10 established professional contests in France, Netherlands, England, Spain, Argentina, Australia and the United States. In 2012, WRS included 100+ amateurs and professional events in over 20 countries.

    I was a roces hater for the longest time purely because I hated how m12s looked. Then one day I woke up and decided I loved them. Got a pair of the m12 junos, and out of the 30+ skates I've skated in the last 15 years they are probably the best skates I've skated.

    The Roces m12 is my favorite aggressive boot. I’ve always thought I had wide feet so I tried a bunch of other boots before finally giving them a try. Holy cow they fit like a glove and there’s so much control. They’re snug, but in a good way. With a 268 MP I can wear a size 9 shell with either intuition or Myfit liners.

    I always recommend sizing up in M12s. The stock liners have quite a bit of padding and take some months of skating to break in. A solid skate and a classic for sure!

    I bought the 1st gen Majestic 12. They were the first skate with an H block. Before that, skate frames normally had an open design. Unfortunately, that was when royales came out so while the frames lasted longer, the shells wore through pretty fast.

    Some 22 years back I skated the hell outta the M12 model. Shins bleeding almost every day from the ammount of hours skating daily... student life :D they are unforgiving in the start but once you break them in you don't want to change a thing. I tried the K2 skates because we all loved the regular shoe boot style look but it was a horrible experience. Years later I went for the USD AEON 60 and TBH they are no match to the M12. I like them because they are white which was one of my main points and somewhat lower than the M12 (foot wise and overal height wise) but I can tell right away that once they reach their "end" I will not buy them again because the fitment in the toe area is tight your fingers get numb very easy so you have to pick a larger size which in return leaves your lower shin wobbling freely in the boot even when your strap is tightly shut AF. And I don't see myself experimenting with other liners and spending more and more money just to find a good fit when the M12 is perfect out of the box with minor adjustments over time as they get used more and more. Roces M12 are simply one of the best if not the best skate models. That is also probably why they never changed the design much over all these years.

    I've just bought (in Italy) the Roces Iconic 42EU size. A glove. I love them.
    I've also bought the M12 same size but I feel them so tight. I've tried the 43EU but I'm afraid they're too big. It's the first time I use an aggressive inline skate. Should I wear the small one or the upper size one? :)

    Nothing feels that solid like an M12. And the soulplate is not that small. The negative side is truly not the widest but the positive side is the same wide as the USD-Sway soulplates for example....

    When i tried the bacemint roces they were light and slid fast, but I felt like I was falling out of them from the heel lift and how the boot actually closes around your foot. Roces has some cool colors but theyre unskateable personally

    I have the base entry level black Roces M12s with old Kaltik freestyle frames. I can lock in on ANYTHING. I spent next to nothing on those skates. Used the outer wheels on the Kaltik frames. Didn't even replace the liners. On paper they should be TERRIBLE skates. I've got a nice pair of 909s I spent a ton of money on but I'd rather skate my dogshit beat down M12s.
