FR FR1 80 2022 - Light Blue Inline Skates

FR FR1 80 2022 Light Blue freeride inline skates

FR Skates focuses on solid freeride skates and high-end models for freestyle slalom. The FR1 series models have set technological standards for urban skating for over a decade and even today surpass most of the competition's models.

The FR1 80 model is definitely one of the most recognizable freeskate skates in history, enjoying unwavering popularity for several years now.

Features of the FR FR1 80 Light Blue freeskate inline skates 

• Rigid shell — made of durable material, with a range of conveniences that every user will appreciate. The shell itself is cut a bit more than usual for skates of this class, which increases comfort, especially for people with high arches.
• 16 possible cuff position settings — the most adjustable cuff position system among all skates currently on the market. As many as 16 possible settings allow for solving problems with bending legs at the ankles, and also allow for selecting the right cuff height for the user.
• Replaceable slider — or side protection of the shoe designed to minimize damage while sliding on wheels.
• FR Liner — a comfortable, anatomically shaped liner with the option of lacing at the top, which allows for better foot retention. Under the liner, there is a shock absorber that increases riding comfort and jump landings.
• Lacing system — lacing and two buckles - a micro-metric one to keep the heel in place and a strong one, equipped with a classic receptor buckle on the cuff, whose lever is made of metal. It is worth noting that the 2022 edition has a changed 45-degree buckle, compared to those from previous years. It is bulkier and stronger, and the strap itself is wider.

Universal frame mounting system

Metal blocks embedded in the bottom of the boot at the frame mounting points. Above all, they allow for the adjustment of the frame position - each plate has 7 threaded holes for a screw. Furthermore, they stiffen the connection between the frame and the shoe, significantly contributing to the improvement of energy transfer to the wheels.

The spacing of the mounting points is 165 mm, and the shoes are compatible with most frame models in this standard - including three-wheel ones, which are easier to mount due to a special recess at the front plate, preventing the first wheel from rubbing against the shell.

4D frames of 243 mm length

4D frames, 243 mm in length, equipped with four Street Invaders II wheels with Twincam MW9 Titalium Freeride bearings. This creates a responsive, versatile set that can be relied upon in urban conditions.

4x80 wheel setup - a classic in freeskating, making the FR1 great for freeride - jumps and slides. By installing 76 mm wheels in the extreme positions, it even allows for trying one's hand at the freestyle slalom discipline.

FR FR1 80 2022 Skates - Worth knowing!

Thanks to the fact that the 7 holes on each plate for mounting the frame give us more possibilities of spacing than 165 mm, the Endless brand has created a special, low-profile version of the Endless 110 frame dedicated to FR1/2/3 skates, using a 180 mm spacing! There is also absolutely no problem in fitting frames from other manufacturers to the boot.

FR Skates FR1 can be confidently recommended to anyone who appreciates proven solutions, ease of adjusting the skates to one's preferences, and versatile equipment for urban inline skating. FR1 is the "workhorse" of the FR Skates brand - it's a model that can simply be relied upon: reliable and offering a really favorable price-quality ratio. Over the years, FR1 has been the gold standard in its category, a model that others have strived to match. Their design at the time of release was so far ahead that it remains current today.
