Urban skates with a hard shell, on which most of our customers stay for years: manoeuvrable, stiff and fully repairable.
The Rollerblade Twister XT are freeskate skates with a hard boot, a 243 mm aluminium frame and Hydrogen Spectre 80 mm / 85A wheels on ILQ-9 bearings. They work well in the city: quick turns, skating on uneven surfaces, first jumps. The brake is in the box, for self-fitting.

The Twister XT comes in double sizes: one shell covers two adjacent numbers, and the fit is made with the Footboard Sizer shim.
The manufacturer assigns each size a foot length range ending at the upper insole value. Example: size 250–255 mm (EU 39–40) is for a foot from 246 to 255 mm.
If you have a wide foot or a high instep and fall on the boundary of two sizes, take the larger one.

Measure your foot in millimetres (heel against the wall, to the tip of your longest toe) and choose an insole equal to that length or 2–5 mm longer. Full measuring guide
Every 20–30 hours of skating, rotate the wheels (swap the first with the third, the second with the fourth, and swap sides) — they wear on the inner edge. After skating in the rain, take out the bearings and dry them the same day. Before your first skate, take the paper stuffing out of the toes.
Yes, if you intend to skate regularly. A hard boot holds the ankle better than soft fitness skates, which makes learning easier. Fit the brake from the box to start with.
Yes. It is in the box together with a longer axle and is fitted on the right skate with an Allen key. The skates have no brake from the factory.
On the factory 243 mm frame — 80 mm. To skate on 3 × 110 mm you need to change the frame to a 3WD model; the shell is prepared for it.
The longer frame (255 mm) is fitted in sizes EU 44.5–47.5. It gives more stability with a large foot at the cost of a little manoeuvrability.
