ISPO NEWS: New Conference Products - 07/02/05

We just came back from the ISPO (international sports trade show) and  shot the newest products that the Conference brings you. Lets start with USD:

USD NEWS:

-Billy O'Neil UFS Throne:

Billy O'Neil is finally getting his well deserved first pro skate from USD. This skate is a colloboration between USD, Mindgame and Juggernaut to bring you all the finest stuff packed into one single skate. It features a Juggernaut liner similiar to the Reign Neoprene liner, but just with less padding. So you still should have a good hold in the skate with a little more flex. His skate also comes with the new Throne V-Cuff, Mindgame Billy O'Neil wheels and probably also Mindgame Bearings. To top that setup he got his own Kizer Pro frame on the skate.




-Sean Kelso Classic Throne:

Sean Kelso is also receiving his first pro skate. Props on that! As everyone knows Sean is always skating a Classic Throne so his pro skate gonna be a Classic Throne too. He also gets the new V-Cuff on it, which is the first time on a Classic Throne, than he got the Sifika Pump Liner, which was supposed to be in the Sagona Throne. His skate also has some new Kizer Frames - the Element frame. Sean is the first one who is getting an Element pro model. The wheels are Genre wheels and the Bearings are most likely from Kizer too. On his model USD is also introducing a new lacing system. There are 2 lines now for laces, so you really got good control in the skate. Sean is always tighting up his skates, so he got the maximum control over his skate. With this liner and the new lacing system that shouldn't be a problem. So 100 % control when you put the skates on. To give this setup a little kick, USD and Sean decided to bring it out in some fresh colour theme. I would say, this skate is definitely made and designed by Sean Kelso:




-UFS Team Throne:

The UFS Team Throne is a nothing new, but it is going into a new round. This time with a nice brown/beige and white colour theme with Sifika liner, Kizer Typ-M frame and also Undercover wheels. Seems like a functional good looking skate for a fair price.




USD Clan VII Skate:

USD also introduced the new Clan Skate. New good looking skin in white with some red highlights. The Clan skate has been a low budget skate for all the people with less money in their pockets or for beginners who doen't want to spend that much money on a skate. The skate comes with good and huge souls, a Kizer Typ-M frame and some Undercover wheels. The Clan also comes with Sifika liners. So all in all a good setup with quality liner, frames und wheels for a good budget.




SIFIKA NEWS:

-Sifika SL-415Liner:

Sifika is bringing the SL-415 liner in a new colour theme, which was used in the USD UFS Team Throne.



-Sifika Sean Kelso Pump Liner:

The liner was supposed to come out with the Sagona Throne already, but due some longer testing Sifika is releasing the liner now for Sean Kelso and his USD Classic Throne Model. There is a air pump system in the liner, so you can adjust the liner to your feet perfectly.



-Sifika Shoes:

Sifika is also bringing out some new shoes. There is not too much to say. They all look good and hopefully will be available soon:









KIZER NEWS:

Kizer also brought out some new products. Most of the frames are just new colours and new promodels. Only the Kizer Element frame from Sean Kelso is new. An aluminium core with plastic walls. You can find more info about that frame on the Kizer website (www.kizer-skate.com)
