USD Shadow Dustin Latimer Xsjado Skates.
In the ever-evolving world of inline skating, few individuals have made as significant an impact as Dustin Latimer. As an official re-imagining the Xskajdo skates USD have done extremely well to pay homage.
A Nostalgic Homage
One look at the USD Shadow and you'll notice its color scheme pays homage to Dustin's favorite USD Throne Classic skates. This nod to the past is a celebration of the history and culture of rollerblading. It's a reminder of the classic designs that have inspired generations of skaters.
The Footwrap Design Reimagined
Thanks to the work of Shadow master minds: Matthew D. Kenneth D. Eugen E.and Matthias K. the USD Shadow rekindles the spirit of the original DL Xsjado skates with a reimagined footwrap design. Unlike most footwear, the footwraps and crossliners of the Shadow skate aren't primarily intended for walking. Instead, they are optimized for providing additional stability, heel lock, and power transfer while skating. This design emphasizes the core purpose of inline skates, delivering a skate that performs exceptionally well.
Innovative Xgrip Outsole and Lower Center of Gravity
The new Xgrip outsole is molded after the Shadow soulplate, ensuring a seamless fit between the components of the skate. This integration, coupled with the Shadow cuff and shock absorber, results in a lower center of gravity. The benefits are numerous, including enhanced lateral support, improved fit, superior cushioning, secured heel lock and reinforced toecap. Skaters can expect a responsive ride that's second to none.
Tailored for the Perfect Fit
The USD Shadow comes in single sizes ranging from 38 to 47 EU, ( 6 to 12,5 US ) making it easier for skaters to find their ideal fit. The upper cuff features cuff padding and a suitable closure system, ensuring that every aspect of the skate is designed for comfort and performance.
Kizer Type X Frame and Advanced Technology
The USD Shadow DL boasts the Kizer Type X frame, a homage to the old Xsjado Mook frames, but with upgraded Kizer technology. This frame is designed to provide skaters with optimal control and precision during their tricks and manoeuvres on all obstacles.
High-Performance Components
To complete the package, the USD Shadow is equipped with USD Team 58mm 90A Ultra High Rebound (UHR) wheels and Wicked ABEC 9 bearings. These components ensure a smooth and efficient roll, making it easier for skaters to tackle different terrains with ease.
