Looks like it was a fun rip around the city pathways. I know the 4x100 feels big and cumbersome on spins so I can't imagine the 110s. Bu that carving sensation on a rockered big wheel set-up is addictive and pure joy!
Really great video series on the NN Frames. I just bought the Rollerblade Twister 110 3WDs . . . and almost bought the NN Ronin 4X100s to expand upon them for skiing drills. That is until I just saw this video. My girlfriend and I got into skiing just about 3 months ago up at Mount Bachelor, OR. We been on the slopes up at Bachelor about 16 times since then. I'd say we are at an intermediate ski level now. We love it and I bought the blades to continue a focused off-season training regimen so I am ready to go next ski season. Looks like from your review that if one's primary focus on the blades is the intersection between blading and skiing then these are the frames and wheels to get. Lucky they will integrate with the RB 3WD 165mms. One last note: you mentioned that you love to ski, it would be great to see a video or two of you using your blades to train for skiing.
These look (too?) big indeed! Must be great for downhill and real muscle/endurance test on acceleration or climbs. One thing for sure - they do look good!
Awesome video! Definitely miss Portland. Those look smooth! I’m finally buying skates next month, I can’t wait to keep it rollin out here in Florida along the beach!
I agree but never felt the urge to spend exorbitant amount of money on frames or wheels or bearings. Stock frames are fine. Ebay sells cheap wheels by a guy called Yak. Bearings I use Bones reds
Grew up in tigard and skated portland heavily in the late 90s with the feinbergs, bj, Shane saviors etc. Looking to get back in to it for fitness reasons. Really enjoying the channel dude!

I've only been to the Portland Waterfront once, but I immediately recognized it.

Hello, could you help me with some questions? -Are you using mount 195 or UFS? -This frame only comes in rocker or is there a flat configuration? Thank you
@@ThirtyandRollin I tried to ask the owner some questions on Instagram but heard nothing back. I'd love to get these in UK, but I don't know anywhere that sells them
@@ThirtyandRollin Thanks! I'm thinking of getting either a 3x110 complete skate or a 4x110 for my twister edges for a more long distance and fitness focused setup. Also speed : D
@@ThirtyandRollin can you can describe the difference you feel between both? On reddit some people say the supreme slides better. I don't really see how they're both 85a. I think the hydrogens are just more costly because made in usa
@@kenmastersmaster To me the Surpreme's feel sluggish/dead compared to Hydrogens. The Hydrogens have more rebound/energy transfer which makes them feel harder for a fast roll performance. I also feel the grip is a bit more refined on the Hydrogens which in my opinion allows them to break free and slide when needed but hold an edge well when needed. I feel the Surpreme's feel too grippy and soft. You can slide them but I prefer the Hydrogen's for sliding. The durometer is a very basic wheel density measurement. Both are 85a like 85% of the urban street wheels on the market but the urethane, the mold and way the wheel is poured is what make the wheel unique.
@@ThirtyandRollin nice you should compare both back to back but on same wheel hub. I think Supremes on 80mm hubs on Twister wheels might be a lot softer than the 90 or 100mm hubs they use for the speed skates, or even the 110mm 3wd ones. I can't believe the urethane itself is that different. The design of the hubs makes a world of difference for rebound
This evening i was trying on my 90 wheels on a rugged area...Even though the wheels are big but as soon as it hit the rugged part it still have that ability to stop it jerkly. This is because of the small bearings. If bigger bearings are invented that the skating world would drastically be changed. Even though in a big wheels , but there are the ability to stop the skates. In this century we need big bearings.The wheels like 101 are too enough its only because of the bearings that does not allow to reduce all this shocks.
Sounds like bullshit to me. The size of the bearings shouldn't influence the rolling of ruff surfaces that much. If it where like that there would be many more bearing. But what influences your skating on these surfaces is how you transfer your weight....
@@BlackyRay_Patrick Do you study mechanics....mechanical science... Or do you just say that...

@@andyhlawnchhing8337 for Bearings it's always the same situation like for shifts/gears and wheels itself. It's always a trade between speed and acceleration.

the way you shred those frames I would have never know they were 110 wheels! Great video!
As soon as NN Skates drop a 4x100mm or 4x90mm rockered UFS frame I am going shopping!
My fingers are crossed for a UFS series of all their frames as well!
That fence zoom out cut at 7:52 was slick
Urban skiing, the idea is nice. Thank you for the feedback. o7
Great video! I'm so stoked for my Ronins... I keep watching your videos just building the Hype!!!
I can't wait to see an episode of OlderBladers on the Ronins!

Taking great advantage of the dry weather! I love this loop ❤️
Can't wait!
Watched this on the big screen and really enjoyed it. Nice surroundings, interesting gear and strong skating! Keep it up
Thanks! It's a great spot to skate in Portland.
This made me miss my pre-COVID Portland skating day trips!
Super smooth

Yes this setup is a great cross over. But if you cannot afford the wheel just grab the regular hydrogens. Enjoy and thanks for watching!
These look (too?) big indeed! Must be great for downhill and real muscle/endurance test on acceleration or climbs. One thing for sure - they do look good!
They are huge! But if you work with the limitations for the gains they are a lot of fun!

Rollerblade Twisters always looked amazing, but I think that frame adds them what they needed
I have to agree! The NN frame design angles works so well with the Twister Edge design angles.
I agree but never felt the urge to spend exorbitant amount of money on frames or wheels or bearings. Stock frames are fine. Ebay sells cheap wheels by a guy called Yak. Bearings I use Bones reds
@@kenmastersmaster i bended 2 frames using my skates and this change was huge to me, one of those 2 was expensive
@@kenmastersmaster I agree it is hard to spend a lot on frames and wheels but if you are into skating enough and have the funds it's worth it.

Haha thanks! Ya once you get a feel for the size it's no biggie. Also once you can skate backwards and do regular crossovers you can do them backwards.
You just need to do bigger steps with bigger frames ;)
I get so much info from these videos I keep coming back to them they are so helpful I just need video on iqon frames now 😂 but for real

Ya Portland is a pretty cool place for food! I actually don't have an Insta 360 One R, I use a GoPro Hero 7 Black.

Heck ya!
Hi there. Does 4x110 gives a smoother ride on cobblestones thatn 3x110? There are a lot of cobblestone roads in my area.
You may notice a bit smoother but more stable. For smoothness you would need a bigger softer wheel such as a 3x125 at 85a
@@ThirtyandRollin I already own a 3x110. Would an increase to 125 be noticeable or minimal? Worth it??
I really love how smooth big wheels are bouncing from one side to the other.....
But 4x110 is definitely one wheel to much for me....
It's a lot but a lot of fun!
@@ThirtyandRollin every good skate is a lot of fun ;)
Atm im finally having a lot of fun with my trinity 4x90 endless frame.
@@BlackyRay_Patrick Sweet!
Hello, could you help me with some questions?
-Are you using mount 195 or UFS?
-This frame only comes in rocker or is there a flat configuration?
Thank you
It allows 165 and 195 mount but only comes in a rockered setup.
Any plans to review NN 110T (Bot)? I wonder how V rocker tris-skate would feel/perform.
Not right now but possibly in the future.
what is your favorite boot for long distance and occasinal skatepark/jumping. I'm between Powerslide Core 90's or something from rollerblade
I'm all about the Rollerblade Twister.
@@ThirtyandRollin sweet mi might just wait till the new twister XT comes out then and upgrade to a ninja frame
@@cosmicraydiation3900 Great choice!
I see you're using Twisters - do you think the frame would work well on the RB 80's?
Absolutely!
Would they fit any RB boot? I have the RB Twister Edge X 2018 model.
@@jessa.3857 Yep! These fit any 165 or 195 mount shell.
@@ThirtyandRollin Thanks!

Hey, I was wondering, how does this 4x110 setup compare to a 3x110 ?
It's heavier but more maneuverable with a longer wheel base. This is a very fast setup as well.
@@ThirtyandRollin Thanks! I'm thinking of getting either a 3x110 complete skate or a 4x110 for my twister edges for a more long distance and fitness focused setup. Also speed : D
Are these flat, or a rocker kinda set up??
These are rockered. All NN Skates frames are rockered. These have the V.m rocker which is like a banana rocker.
Are the hydrogens worth the extra over the supreme? I've tried both and can't tell the difference

Ya you got to watch out for sure.
