SOLA Street Frame 002 - Black Inline Skate Frames

Kyle Sola has quickly gained a reputation of being one of the most talented, if not THE most talented industrial designers working in aggressive inline skating industry. The boot and frames of Them 909 skate are his works. He also has been involved in modernisation of Rollerblade Solo skate, streamlining it into current Rollerblade Blank model. In addition to participating in projects of other companies, Kyle also runs his own, called Sola Equipment. Thus far, it is focused on delivering some of the highest end frames on the market.

All Sola Equipment frames are made from a CNC-milled 6061-T6 aluminium extrusion profile, which is finally treated with a surface-hardening anodized finish. It is worth to note that Sola Equipment was the first brand to popularize skating a “raw” aluminium frame with replaceable H-block. This concept was later picked up by brands such as Ground Control, Kizer and IQON.

Even though others copied Kyles ideas, they have not copied one outstanding thing about his designs - style. Kyle uses almost brutalism-like shapes and lines. They are symmetrical, often angular and have premium feel to them, while simultaneously looking "raw". This outstanding design is what makes Sola products so different from every other brand out there.
