skates are actually pretty interesting. PTFE was discovered by accident on a laboratory, and the scientist was surprised by the white clogging the inside of a bottle, and the rest is history. Just an exciting chemical plastic.
Frrr might just start a freaking mouse skate company😭😭kidding but also like ?? Demand is there for 30 competitors?? How hard is it to make efficient pieces of plastic to help other pieces of plastic glide across a particular surface?
9:08 mate I thought I was the only one that thought this. Ingenious concept of material use, but it needs to be polished again to achieve first time feeling experience. The bloke close down his store I think.
I noted that you said you haven't had experience with Ultraglide skates. I got the Ultraglide "Silence Version" skates on AliExpress a few days ago, and they have been excellent. Outright fixed harsh instability noted just from pressing down on my mouse with pure PTFE skates. I don't have the Xraypad equivalents, but I've noted excellent control and stopping power so far. I am current on a cloth pad (glass soon), so my perspective may show inexperience. However, the glide doesn't feel terribly slow compared to pure PTFE skates, and if anything, feels vastly smoother and consistent by comparison. As the name suggests, they seem quiet as well, though I will reiterate that I'm on cloth for the present time. Ultimately, I can already confidently recommend them, and think they would be worth showcasing on the channel.
Based skates time stamp: Xraypad Jades Air 2:14 Magic Ice 5:43 (Best full sized skates) Xraypad Obsidian Air 15:22 (Best all around) Hyperglide 20:46 (Not available anymore) Tiger Ice v2 21:35 Side note: He did a great job making this video so it’s worth watching all the way through for more detailed info.
Thanks, that was actually helpful! I've been deciding between jade and obsidian air, and now i have a better picture of what to expect of them. Guess my go to option will be obsidian air cuz i'm an average glass enjoyer, and would really appreciate if i was the only one who hears every of my mouse's movement (instead of every living being in a 1km radius). Right now it's very loud and i hope that obsidian will do it's job
Xraypad do make Jade airs at this point. I did like them on my Wall hack sp004. One thing to note is that at least in my experience, all the air skates will get louder as they wear. At about 60% normally they'll be just ad loud as normal skates. But they'll still have another 40% lifespan in them before they start actually feeling scratchy.
@onikisusalt3665 noted, thanks for useful info! I mean, they will still be a 9999% better then some random skates i use now. I don't even know which one are those, got 'em as a bonus when i bought a pad
Nice video. Im on the plastix (with glass pad) because i really want consistency but after a month of using i feel like its missing sth that other skates provided. I love the feel of the obsidian pros on day one of usuage. If i had the money i would use them and change them everyday. But i don't so im looking for better options. This video is helping a lot, thank you
Have Artisan P8’s on the K83 and it is tech. The only issue I find with the dots is if your mousepad is humid which isn’t ever really an issue on the K83🤯
Sinceramente most of the time i don't agree with u (like on glasspad or some mouse shape), but holy...this tier is based af, Bravo. Even more that u putted Jade (my goat) in S. Just perfect.
Agree most of the tiers actually, expect I'm having fun with Superglide glass skate v2/Lexip/XRaypad Meteorite on Shidekai v1/Element Ice. Maybe I'm living in dry cold Canada, humidity isn't a problem.
I've tried Obsidian Air on Razer Viper V3 pro. Only tested them on cloth pads, wanted something for control, but they ended up being faster than stock skates and also not as smooth. They had pretty good properties, no difference in static and dynamic friction, very consistent overall. So if you like dry, a little scratchy, but very balanced and durable glide with good stopping power, Obsidian Air skates are very good. But i prefer more standard PTFE on cloth
PA66 nylon isn't even the smoothest material used for keyboard switches. They're better off experimenting with POM or mixtures of other plastics with PTFE. If you guys are dead-set upon using the 66nylon skates, they might need some serious break-in before being considered "smooth"
Same tier as all the other glass but they are cheaper. I wouldn't risk slowing down a cloth pad with it though, if you play on cordura or something plastic then it could be fine
Kind of crazy both Corepads and BT.L (previously in based tier) got demoted to B, and the only survivor is Tiger Ice v2. At least now I have an excuse to try the xraypad skates (the problem must be my skates, definitely not me /j).
Ultraglide skates are different compared to Xraypad's. Ultraglide RS is faster and smoother than Jade dots but durability is even worse but they are cheaper. You should try them out.
Don’t get jades they are way to fast for a tacfps games he only recommends fast pads fast skates he doesn’t really go in depth about any of his reviews like some ppl would like more control and a balance but he only ever talks about speed like he has arc v1s in b tier but they are really good if you want control skates
I just go for corepadz for majority of my mice, cuz they are good overall, can’t go wrong with the classic, if you want slower, go for control version skates
i use jades on my main mouse but i tried out the aliexpress clones ($1 for 20!) and they felt really similar to the point where i don't think id even know the difference in a blind test
hi im currently using a zero soft with corepads and im getting a type 99 mid/soft what skates that are slightly slower should i get? thank you in advance
For me Abyss from nTech and Nylon66 from Ghostglides, best control skates , for games like CS . Obsidian hype is weird, i tried both pro and non pro, i had to use 10 dots, to get something similar , like x4 Abyss from nTech or Nylon66 . I wouldnt call those control skates, i tested all of them on EMC from Endgame with Akitsu .
he said he prefers magic the most but that doesn’t mean it’s “way better” then jade and etc it’s just the perfect purchase in a sense like you essentially can’t go wrong with it
Yooo Boardzy, if you had to rank the scyrox v8 on the tierlist now, how good is it. would you say that going from a superlight 1 to the scyrox v8 be an upgrade?
the jade speed is available in my area. would they be ok for glass skates? cause i have an incoming order which was the skypad 3.0 and the Atom Photovoltaic Glass Mouse Pad. would they be ok for the glass pad mentioned?
From an outsidesr perspective this must be the the most nerd shit imaginable.
A tier list ranking plastic
LMAO
I think it’s arguably more nerd shit to be the run watching😭 at least he’s making money off this I’m just here watching
Just a touch of tism.
passion is passion
Glass as well, occasionally.
skates are actually pretty interesting. PTFE was discovered by accident on a laboratory, and the scientist was surprised by the white clogging the inside of a bottle, and the rest is history. Just an exciting chemical plastic.
Been waiting on this for a minute
What a movie
Better cast than kraven the hunters
Lmaooo
A Truly shocking movie*
holy shit 6 stars of accuracy and force to stop is insane
Watching this in the shower
30 different mouse feet, 30 different cloth pads glass pads, 30 different same shape mice a year, this shit aint like it used to be
Frrr might just start a freaking mouse skate company😭😭kidding but also like ?? Demand is there for 30 competitors?? How hard is it to make efficient pieces of plastic to help other pieces of plastic glide across a particular surface?
Keep em tier list vids coming! Shockingly good
omg i was waiting for this for so long cause i was thinking of getting new skates thanks man love the vids

5:27 LMFAO, the monitor on the desk is the cherry on top
cordrua pad + glass skates is the best combo i have tried
fr makes it play like hockey table but at the same time really good stopping power
Now i will jump down the proverbial rabbit hole and find my preferred skates. Thank for the list!
actually crazy that i’ve been waiting for this tierlist 😭

Obsidian air pro
I love obsidian airs,
great and informative video, shocking even
What do you use it on was looking at them not sure if it’s only good for glass pads
@HarperSmith-e7t I use glass, but obsidians should be nice on cloth aswell, jades are a bit quicker and nice if you only use cloth though.
Obsidian Air donuts are goated af. Love them on my AC Pro Mid Neon.
Hello, boardzy, I want to know what mouse pad you tested these SKATES on? This has been the biggest question on my mind.
Have Artisan P8’s on the K83 and it is tech. The only issue I find with the dots is if your mousepad is humid which isn’t ever really an issue on the K83🤯
Thx for the tierlist, got some Magic Ice's coming for my GPX Dex, finally got some pads out for this thing!
You should do a video about temu mouse pads including glass pads. Would be a great budget focused video
The pink Yanzi skates have been great. Very smooth, minimal texture feeling, and have lasted me months on a textured glass pad.
Thrilling invigorating action packed skate review 🎉
I don't know why but I always come back to full size mouse skates
Same
Sinceramente most of the time i don't agree with u (like on glasspad or some mouse shape), but holy...this tier is based af, Bravo. Even more that u putted Jade (my goat) in S. Just perfect.
I'm here to see where you stand on Corepads because I am a Corepad Skatez Supremecist.
Corepad air are awesome on the FX zero! Basically zero static friction - love it.
Agree most of the tiers actually, expect I'm having fun with Superglide glass skate v2/Lexip/XRaypad Meteorite on Shidekai v1/Element Ice.
Maybe I'm living in dry cold Canada, humidity isn't a problem.
Never changed skates in my life. Decided to upgrade my XM1R to an XM2W 4K and I'll chuck some Magic Ice skates on it. This is all your fault man 😅
I've tried Obsidian Air on Razer Viper V3 pro. Only tested them on cloth pads, wanted something for control, but they ended up being faster than stock skates and also not as smooth. They had pretty good properties, no difference in static and dynamic friction, very consistent overall. So if you like dry, a little scratchy, but very balanced and durable glide with good stopping power, Obsidian Air skates are very good. But i prefer more standard PTFE on cloth
god DAMN that mustache is looking good
PA66 nylon isn't even the smoothest material used for keyboard switches. They're better off experimenting with POM or mixtures of other plastics with PTFE.
If you guys are dead-set upon using the 66nylon skates, they might need some serious break-in before being considered "smooth"
guys best skates and grips for deathadder v3 pro ?
What’s crazy is I was just watching your last video a few days ago on skates
Shocking. My favorite skates are Lamzu glass skates on my Atlantis and Corepad air on my X2. Always on hybrid fast pads.
Me gusta en que todos concuerden en que los Jade sean los mejores skates, y encima son muy baratos. Algún día..
what about xraypad obsidian (black)
and also which one you prefrer dots or donuts?
TJX plastics are all you ever need same mouse feet same speed 2+ years later on a glass pad
Really?? I’ll look into those just got a glass mousepad
obsidian pad skates feel really good with lgg saturn pro and venus og, smooth glide with control and good stopping power
speed wise corepads are my favourites on speed pads but replacing them is genuine torture
skate recommendation for hitscan hyperlight + sp004?
I was literally just looking to buy new skates and I have no idea what to use on cloth. Thanks!!
Damm. Suprised seeing you put Superglide 2 in trash. Easily my favourite skates. Do agree on the v1 wearing down fast tho.
I love my SuperGlides on my Viper V3 Pro but this kids the expert.
He’s really not.
damn no LGG glass skates on here, was wondering what u thought of those, esp at the 5$ price they’re at rn
Same tier as all the other glass but they are cheaper. I wouldn't risk slowing down a cloth pad with it though, if you play on cordura or something plastic then it could be fine
@ been using it on the razer strider with my g303 se, I think that’s probably why I haven’t had any issues with it
Kind of crazy both Corepads and BT.L (previously in based tier) got demoted to B, and the only survivor is Tiger Ice v2.
At least now I have an excuse to try the xraypad skates (the problem must be my skates, definitely not me /j).
thanks for this tier list....i'm curious to try green jade air
What is the difference between the magic Ice on lethal gaming gear and from aliexpress?
Best christmas present

I'm so hyped for a mice tierlist because my gpx died 😢
waited for this just for u to say u didnt include my meteorites 😭
i m gonna grab a popcar for this documentary
Boardzy can you talk a little more about the Pulsar X3 mini? How is the shape/feel of it? Everyone talking about the bigger one but not the mini :(
I really like the Obsidian reds on my OP18k.
best skates for type 99 mid for val/cs/fn?
Magic ice would be my top pick currently, if you can get a better deal on jades those are great as well
@@boardzy how would corepads or like obsidian airs be? Way to slow or?
Don’t get jades they are way to fast for a tacfps games he only recommends fast pads fast skates he doesn’t really go in depth about any of his reviews like some ppl would like more control and a balance but he only ever talks about speed like he has arc v1s in b tier but they are really good if you want control skates

do gpx and gpx dex have the same mouse feet?
Hey Boardzy :D are you gonna make a review of the pulsar x2v3 versions that came out recently?
i use jades on my main mouse but i tried out the aliexpress clones ($1 for 20!) and they felt really similar to the point where i don't think id even know the difference in a blind test
hyperglides are really the Quaaludes of the peripheral community
I actually found jade airs to be quieter/smoother than normal jades
what skates would you recommend for ulx competition and glasspad
what are ur favorite skates or dots for the kurosun ninja / similar speedpad? just got a new vv3pro
hi im currently using a zero soft with corepads and im getting a type 99 mid/soft what skates that are slightly slower should i get? thank you in advance
obsidian air 100%

What mouse feet would you recommend for the artisan type 99?
Obsidian air best choice for glass pad?
which skates are currently the most similar to hyperglides?
i miss when hyperglide still existed
bought the unusual way sports black foxes earlier today
Are the magic ice or the tiger ice v2 better for my gpx 2? And which of them is faster?
Jade speed vs unusual way magic ice, which of these are the fastest?
For me Abyss from nTech and Nylon66 from Ghostglides, best control skates , for games like CS . Obsidian hype is weird, i tried both pro and non pro, i had to use 10 dots, to get something similar , like x4 Abyss from nTech or Nylon66 . I wouldnt call those control skates, i tested all of them on EMC from Endgame with Akitsu .
Obsidian Pro is made of UPE material, it should have greater friction than nylon 66.
What are the pros/cons for using donuts?
What tier would you put the glass mouse skates that come with the viper mini se?
I use obsidian reds because the obsidians pros/air are too controlled on glass and the jades wear out too quickly on glass
Do glass skates and mouse grip help with your accuracy with more control?
I’m sorry but I will never trust ur opinion on skates or mice
W I'm based my favorite skates are based obsidian airs
what your recommendation for a fast mouse skated on a cloth mouse that i can get on aliexpress?
Can u make a video of the top 10 mices of the year?
