Product details
WKND Skateboards is an independent skateboard company based in Los Angeles, California. Considered as a leader within the smaller skate brand resurgence, re-igniting the fun side of skateboarding with an abundance of brand personality, style and comic presence online. The company is the brainchild of skateboarder and videographer Grant Yansura, who has described the brand as a bi-polar skateboard company, an outlet for their fun and silly ideas. In one video you'll find a funny parody and the next it's something more serious and artistic. Utilizing the creative energy behind the brand, Yansura and the boys have dropped some well-crafted apparel and hardware.
Lately the WKND crew has been hanging out a lot with Jon Julio and Themskates team and as a result these two groups of individuals are coming up with the historical collaboration that got the attention of the whole rollerblading and skateboarding industries. The very first inline skates produced by a skateboard company? Yes! WKND x Them collaboration somehow marks the end of some era and establishes a solid foundation for the future generations, the future without divisions and limits!
Coming in bright orange colour, Themskates 909 x WKND offers a slim, ergonomic shell with a slightly raised heel. Slightly longer and wider than the original shell of Themskaets 908 with the updated plastic. Harder and stronger to provide extra support and longer life.
Themskates 909 x WKND 80 are all round inline skates designed for recreational and urban skating. Created on the base of proven 909 shell, WKND 80 will help skaters who want to switch from aggressive skating to bigger wheels without a hassle of finding the correct fitting boots. Distinctive features of 909 skate shell like the option of vertical adjustment of the cuff height allows for much improved control. Setting the cuff position to higher one helps to increase the stability when using wheels of noticeably bigger diameter.
Urban variant of Themskates frames are stiff, composite chassis, incorporating the slimmer version of the soul plate (not recommended for grinding) into one piece element for weight reduction and quick mount. Providing the optimal energy transfer, the frame set can be effortlessly exchanged for an aggressive setup making it a good pickup for inline skaters who want to try something more in the future than just skating around the city. Every aggressive version of Themskates soul plate fits with Themskates 909 x WKND 80 shell.
As far as fitting is considered, Themskates 909 x WKND 80 skates comes with the fourth version of Them liners. The heel position has been shifted a bit “back” for improved stiffness. Wider tongue with more padding for better shell filling and even more comfort.
Completed with exclusive Them x WKND 80 mm 90a wheels in matching colour and full profile for smooth rolling experience.
About manufacturer
Them Skates is a brand created by aggressive inline skating legend, Jon Julio. He is the mastermind behind the marketing and team management of (now shelved) Valo brand which he ran for Roces. After over 15 years, Valo came to an end and he and Italian brand parted ways. Seeing that he basically lost a job that he dedicated his whole adult life to, Jon was at the crossroads. Led by responsibility towards his family, he almost took post office job. However, it was not meant to be – following his love for skating, he decided to have one last shot at creating a skating company, seeing that the he already has been involved in Themgoods (a softgoods company) and Youth frames projects, which were more of a side-jobs for him. Them Skates were born.
Even though the first product – Them 908 model – was nothing revolutionary: used old Sabotage molds (with a new soulplate, but still), had very basic liner and was available as boot only without an option for complete setup, it sold like a hotcakes. This success is thanks to Jon’s loyal fans and supporters from all over the world, a community that had his back and wanted him in the skating. The popularity of Them Skates allowed Jon to expand rapidly – within a time frame of just one year, he developed his proprietary boot mold in cooperation with Kyle Sola, one of the most prominent industrial designers in skating. The 909, as it is called, is notable for being the first boot mold created and fully owned by a company run solely by aggressive inline skaters. Soon, the company created their own frames. Nowadays, one of the most talented and influential skaters are associated with Them Skates and many more chose to ride their boots for what they represent for aggressive skating community as a whole.
