I just started to learn inline skating but I am already excited to one day visit your shop in the summer time and buy some skates😍 greetings from South Germany
Thank you for the shell measurements, that is huge! 😎
You are so welcome!
Last year I got the E3 premium and really enjoyed them! skated them all last year and even went through 3 sets of wheels. The stock wheels just fell apart in a month or 2. Last winter I upgraded to the XTs-FR1's and sold my E3's. I wish I had known I was going to get back into blading so hard and had gotten the FR1's from the start. For me the fit of the FR1 is the best out of all 3 no pain no break in process. The XT being too tight for my feet. They're currently listed on the marketplace. the E3 had a good fit but the cheaper liner caused a hot spot around my abnormal ankle so fit is different for everybody.
I'm glad I got the E3 instead of the zetrablades or macroblades I was considering since the skating experience would have been completely different and might have discouraged to continue on this journey. This winter I'll be progressing into a endless frame bigger wheels and better protective gear. So you can say I am bitten by the bug.
Thank you. This video is really helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for a very thorough review! I feel that the FR Skates FRX and FR3 are better choices, as everything is modular nothing is bolted on... so it's possible to easily change or remove damaged parts. FR Skates also give Street King wheels (Street Invaders on higher models), which are great wheels. On the other hand, these Seba E3's have those soles thrown in, which is a nice gesture. They're also not cheaper than the FR Skates FRX... but did I overlook or misunderstand something...?
Totally agree!
Great thanks
I am looking forward for more measurements such as Rollerblade RB model or Flying eagle brand. By the way, is the Rollerblade twister the old twister or new twister?
the new twister
Great job modifying the 165 E3 boot to a 195 4x100 frame.
Would this also be possible if the boot was an FR1 with a metal plate? Because that's my situation.
any 195mm frame fits on the FR1
the frame I used here is actually an 190 mount so it does not fit standard on anything unless you redrill the holes like i did.
@@Thisissoul Certainly NOT any 195mm frame fits on the FR1 boot.
If the second wheel reaches over the frame bridge the mounting plate touches the second wheel and you would need a spacer between the frame and the boot or you have to cut something out of the plate. And that was my question, is it possible to cut something out without damaging the plate too much to the point it falls out?
he said the frame fits, not the wheels fit! 😁
Ive seen like 5 different seba size charts... My foot is 27cm long. I ordered oxelo mf500 and 42eu was too tight on top of my foot and 43 was too big... What should i get for seba e3 80? 42 or 43?
If your foot is 27cm then the size 41-42 would work. The size 43-44 would be too big
There is enough room on top of your foot in this skate.
@@Thisissoul God damn... Ive Just ordered 43 bcs on the site i was buying from it says 43 for 27cm... Worst case scenario ill send them back and change for 42. Thank you for answer :)
Damn, i made a big mistake. Normally a 44.5, ordered the 45s and that means i actually got 47s 😭
jup!
that is why we list the sizes like this on our website thisissoul.com
-43-44
-45-47
that is more fair.
@@Thisissoul oh well, might just continue with my other setup 👍
@@Thisissoul they're actually not too bad. Definitely not as comfortable as my FR1s, but not far off! Changed them to a rocker too. Cheers for your help
