Not Roll-Line?

Hmmm...

This plate looks suspiciously like a Roll-Line plate!

Hi,

OK in the little I saw in that advancing video, it did look like a plate I have seen many times.

Now the Chinese, as a government, are the best in mining everything including marketing plans. They have so much data that they don't know what to do with it. Yet others have also gotten into the game of copying everything and calling it their own and to sell to 1st World Countries.

It does seem our Elite in the USA and the EU are letting this stuff happen to reduce wages/jobs, yet to create a temporary advantage. We and they mostly are going to pay big time in unrest of college trained mid/low class that hit an advancement wall that is open to the Chinese, others.

This is Argentinian. Argentina has terrible import tariff rates. And people are limited in exchange the Argentinian Peso in foreign currencies. So Roll Line or other European or US roller skate equipment is really expensive or not available. I think this stuff is primary for the Argentinian market.

Looks like a well refined operation. Wonder what the export fees are like from Argentina. They plan on investor return within a couple years, so I'm guessing they must be close to or in production now.

Or do I wait for Sidewinder go into production on his Ultimate V? Looks like he is tooling up nicely...

Or maybe a Crazy clone.

Well Sideswipe in the Boston area (lives near Haverhill, MA) also has a fully machined product that is unique and under patent. It has been reviewed personally by many. I know he has been at this awhile and has sold independently mostly to Derby skaters. Both the 5 and the 45. I am reluctant to write too much of what I know about this plate since I know too much of it's history. YET it is a great plate with higher quality materials and he has once again created another mechanical manufacturing company to manufacture it in the USA, not China. I will have to ask him how much I can say, yet for some reason when we skate we just go about skating and having fun. He did tell me he is working on some web pages.
