Guillaume Le Gentil NJ review
Guillaume Le Gentil is one of our Street Athletes. With his impeccable style and wide trick vocabulary he is well-known in the game. In this video you see him testing the Rollerblade® NJ skate. Is it the skates, the skater of just the combination that makes this look good?……
Guillaume: “It has been a while that I wanted to test the Rollerblade® NJ. I heard several people talking about the skate, and wondering if the NJ is a good skate. Is it more appropriate for the street skating or skatepark. Also if it’s a skate for beginners or experts…. So I decided to test it. Now I am able to talk about it from my own experience.”
“The Rollerblade® NJ is a very good skate, really appropriate for street skating. Just to inform the next generation, the New Jack is a descendant of the TRS Access. The TRS Acces skate was used the biggest in the game like: Alex Broskow, Franky Morales (they even got their pro model in this line), Chris Farmer and many more…
To all who think that because the NJ is less than 200€ it’s a skate for beginners or a skate of low quality is just wrong.”
To sum up the good points of the New Jack :
-The NJ boot is hard on the base of the shell, and soft over the foot feels great. Because of the shell which is undaunted (without eyelets) and it’s skin. This gives an incredible precision feeling and control when skating or performing tricks. I feel really close of the skate and close to the surface.
-The strength: the skin is of very good material after few months of skating there is no one hole and nothing destroyed. The soulplates are strong and perfect for
streetskating.
-The aesthetic: this is the most beautiful skate of Rollerblade and of the market. In my opinion!
-The comfort: it’s a really comfortable skate; especially because of the Rollerblade skill about confection of liners with is inspired from Skiing industry.
“My overall conclusion: I recommend this skate to all the street skaters who want a stylish skate with an old school soul plate which need precision feel and support and a lot of control and comfort.
An incredible skate and even better skating experience. Peace.”
