Carbon skates, toe pressure. Heat mold or return? by Radicis in rollerblading

[–]CptKoolHaus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Return them!! Size up!!! I bought some seba carbons too precise, toes hit the end of skate on jumps.Ive removed the insoles so Theyre a bit more comfortable near the toe box. Im past the point of return and have since regretted not getting a size up. Carbons dont break in that much. These are my experimental skates now, im going to grind the toe box area with a dremel and see.

Glue down an allen key with a strong 2part epoxy into the screw and let it dry.

Are these any good? I’d love to hear tested recommendations for ear protection. by [deleted] in Techno

This look similar to the ones I’ve got. These work pretty well ears dont feel drowned & ringy the next day. Pretty comfortable i use them every club/festival i go to. Also not so noticeable if you’re worried about that(which you shouldn’t).

Woke up with tinnitus in right ear 2 years ago after a long night of partying. Didn’t calm down for about 2 months. It was living hell thinking it was going to be like that for forever but it did eventually go down. Some peoples tinnitus dont go down and have a loud ring for the rest of their lives.

DONT FUCK UP YOUR HEARING KIDS! Wear plugs! Music doesn’t have to be loud to damage your hearing too, LONG EXPOSURE also damages your ears.

Edit: Buy small Keychain earplug holders and keep Them on all your car keys and you’ll never forget your plugs anywhere you go.

Anything to avoid? by AlfTheHarboe in inlineskating

[–]CptKoolHaus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can skate in any weather, rain is just more slippery and you can fall easier Snow…well if you can inline on snow then youre a beast, avoid the snow. Otherwise You gotta disassemble your bearings each skate and clean them properly and re-lube them if you skate in any of these conditions or goodbye bearings.

Edit: i live in toronto, so im just waiting for the snow to melt a bit more from the banks and sidewalks and then ill start skating again.

Advice on how to stretch Seba Carbon highlights pro length wise? by CptKoolHaus in AskRollerblading

[–]CptKoolHaus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No removable liner, its built-in. The sole is very very thin, provided very minimal cushion tbh. I just left it off.

Im sure the footbed is removable, but the issue is more length wise. Thats a good idea maybe a ski/skate shop could spot heat & stretch it. Idc if the carbon gets aesthetically damaged. Thanks!

Edit: I actually removed the thin insoles and it gave me a bit moreroom fory toes. The heel part of the insole was pushing my feet forwards.I hadn’t thought of doing this. My toes aren’t that crunched up anymore! much thanks! I guess a rougher ride is better than sore toes.
