The latest boarding craze to flip over here from the states, Freelining is without doubt the coolest skating experience there is. It combines the feel of boarding and skating in one high adrenalin multi-trick busting sport. Snowboarding and surfing are amazing hobbies, but unless you are blessed with Malibu beaches or the Alps as your back garden, they can often become a much neglected pastime. The Freeline Skates are great for boarders who use the same skills as they would on water or on the slopes, only on dry land. They're made from aluminium so are super tough and yet lightweight, and can be used by pros and first timers alike. To really 'get' why these are so darn radical and amazing you should watch the video that shows you just what you can do on them. There is also a good 'how to' tutorial on Youtube that will get you up and started. Aside from their extreme cred, they're a joy to carry around compared with the bulk and drag of lugging a board about. Freelining is the next big thing, watch the streets!

Freelines are, without a doubt, the most eye-catching things I have ever tried out. Speaking from experience, I am a Rollerblader, Snowboarder and have tried my hand at surfing, yet these are the most enjoyable and stunning of them all. I also own and have tried out a RipStick (eXboard for UK or Street Surfers) and it is probably the closest sport I can compare it to, yet it has fantastic elements taken from them all. Lets start with the obvious, skateboarding. The similarity between freelining and skateboarding is only in the design, you stand on them like you would both ends of a skateboard. The surfing experience comes the feel of the ride, soft breeze, constant re-adjustments to your body and finding that sweet spot of perfect balance. Now, Snowboarding is where Freelines get all there best experience. I can honestly say, when rolling down a hill doing S-Turns, close your eye's and you ARE snowboarding. Twisting your feet and ankles to turn the skates. I will have to point out. You will not be able to Pick Up and Ride these skates. They do take IMMENSE practise, some people up to months just to move the length of a driveway. The learning curve is a tough one, but once it clicks and you understand the movements you need, expect to have some of the best fun you can on Concrete. This product is an Investment! Do not purchase and a week later get annoyed because your not riding like you saw on the video's. It takes time, be prepared to spend a lot of afternoons inching along on these fantastic skates. Pros: Damn near indestructable Eyecatching Unique (I have had mine for 4 months and have seen TWO other riders and we intentionally travelled to meet up) Stylish as you weave along Cons: Difficult to master Intimidating to begginers Skates CAN keep on moving when you fall off/step off incorrectly Come with no form of transport Final verdict 9/10
