Hey mate, great to be back. Thanks for watching. Yeah I definitely reccomend them. Only thing I forgot to mention in this video is check that the bottom of your boot will accommodate those beefy 72mm wheels. On my SLs (and some other boots) you have to dremel a small wheel well in so they fit. Most skates post 2018 will fit straight out of the box but worth checking 👍
Whats tye biggest standout difference between the two? Which do you like more? Lastly and most importantly do you think the frame is too tall like the frame height to soul plate width ratio is kinda unbalanced as opposed to other combinations? Do you think it’s hard for you to sit into your grinds with the frame being taller? I know you’re experienced so you can adjust better than others but yeah.
@@wanya0got0it0goin0on I would probably base your choice on foot size as much as anything. I think the original is better for foot size US 10 and up and medium is probably better for the smaller sizes. I also did a comparison between the two frames on another video on my channel so check that out too ruclips.net/video/iuJtl8ZHJrg/видео.htmlsi=DS7tfmPVxhJOPuUs
@@chrischadwick1 I’ve seen the other videos and which it is why it took me by surprise that you went back to classic. Do you think it’s cheating if it has a huge HBlock? Do you think the frame height his too big for locking in groove tricks? I have both… I like the idea that I have to have more precision with the medium. But I feel more connected with the classics but I feel like since it’s super easier to hit tricks that it would make me lazy to aim for the best technique.
Had my first sesh on the oysi today and found royales more difficult because the H block isn’t as deep as my Kaltiks so trying to rest on the backslide plate for grinds will take a bit of getting used to. Felt nice for topside tricks though
Pick up your own Oysi frames: Locoskates.com
So good to see you back on YT, and with such a timely video as I've been looking at Oysi recently

Cheers Chris. I'm back on my Oysi classics as well. Great frame.
Hey mate, thanks for stopping by. I know such an awesome setup. Absolutely loving em. Hope your keeping well 👍
i found my dream setup last year: xsjado mook ( S) on a usd DL shadow with a green cuff and some soulplateparts. like the 09 farmer xsjado.
Nice! I loved my Chris Farmer Xsjados back in the day. They were black with a cream cuff. One of my all time favourites..
@@chrischadwick1 I remember your skating in these well! Looking forward to watching this vid later.
@@designatedrolla yeah man. That was a great time for skating. I remember you filmed me BS royale that handicap rail in Scarborough 👍
