it's actually a Ferrari red Ferrari red? its faster!
[11]
Ol谩 youTube My name is Ricardo Lino and a wheel addict today I'm going to show you the most
[16]
expensive skate on the market is that right I think it's right
[21]
well expensive you might have seen but is it real quality well that's what
[26]
we're gonna see today with Peter we are at the Adept headquarters I think we can
[30]
say Peter and his girlfriend Olga on this brand called adapt and all the
[36]
skates are n made by themselves so Peter you guys have two skates one is the
[41]
aggressive skate the other one is what you call the hyper skins I'm hyperscale
[45]
yeah this one the most expensive skate is the GTO the GTO I pressed it yeah so
[52]
you want to tell us a little bit more about this kid yeah sure so basically we
[56]
have two models on a hyper skates which this one is the most high-end version of
[62]
them all basically it's called the GTO because of my love for cars and within
[69]
Ferrari the GTO is the most expensive car what they have what you guys can see
[74]
is that this kid is like all black and then here let's check this Victor like
[78]
just a little red detail bikes it's like it really it's actually Ferrari red
[85]
Ferrari red Ferrari right it's better yeah so basically it's actually it's a
[92]
free skate so it's the base of like the boot can be used for multiple purposes
[98]
even marathon skating free skating and just maybe even swallow so it is a
[106]
multi-purpose boot with one vision actually and it is to be the most
[111]
hardcore type of skate that we can build as to this date actually
[118]
so the GTO is the most hardcore version we have with hardcore I mean it is the
[125]
most rigid skate we have because of the power transfer we want everything to be
[131]
really solid have a nice solid feel to it in order to yeah make the skating
[138]
experience more high-end actually and you guys have no cuff a huge V cut
[145]
that's what I see here yeah and a different mounting yeah we actually the
[150]
the GTO has the hyper skate has a lot of features that are totally different than
[154]
any other company on the market so basically it is a it doesn't have a
[161]
hinge cuff so it doesn't have a cuff that moves forwards so it only has like
[167]
a cuff built in within the skate so basically it is cut out onto like the
[174]
marker of the GTO as the carbon but then it goes all the way up to the top to
[179]
give a lot of support and the way the adapt works is that it has a more
[186]
natural flex to it so the reason why we did this or developed this is because I
[191]
was getting a bit older I had some injuries and my foot could not with
[198]
stayin a lot of impacts anyway is that why it's called the death so we
[207]
developed this idea to have more natural flex so the flex
[213]
works together more with the strap the lacing everything works really close
[218]
together so every detail is really important that's why we came out with
[222]
the double white laces not just one coat but two coats of works just to make
[228]
ensure more grip to the skate the even the eyelids they're not colored there
[235]
and an iced so basically that gives more grip as well the leather is specially
[242]
chosen for this skate so in order that it gives the right like support that I
[248]
want in a skate I asked you something about it yesterday I asked you if you
[253]
could skate barefoot on that skate yeah you can because for those of you guys
[257]
that don't know a lot of speed skaters choose to skate barefoot they choose to
[263]
not use socks I know that it might seem way to some of you guys listening to
[266]
this but it's it's not a regular liner scale it's not an aggressive skates it's
[272]
a certain type of stage when you're that the skin of your foot against the
[277]
leather of the inside of the skate it just makes sense it's like the contact
[281]
once once it sweats a little bit it just gets the perfect contact one feel yes
[286]
yes so for normal inline skating use and speed is skating it's normal to have no
[292]
socks in your skates and they often have leather inside really soft leather of
[297]
course and with the hyper skate only the GTO I have to make sure like the zero
[304]
which is also a hyper scale it's a cheaper yeah it's the new model is not
[309]
here but it is this one good and that actually has a mesh lining so basically
[315]
the mesh lining you have to wear socks it's like correct regular viadimir woman
[319]
yeah but the GTO has a different material
[323]
it's called it's called on steam and it's actually made in Holland as well
[327]
it's eight times more durable than real leather it's not real leather
[333]
but it gives a lot of grip on the inside and also no friction when you would
[338]
skate it barefoot if I would say that's an okay thing to do that's totally up to
[344]
the customer I prefer to skate it with socks because of the use University yeah
[350]
you use it not as a speed skate you use it as a SK like this when someone invest
[355]
the amount of money that this case cost there will be a lot of different people
[359]
using it and some people will use it just for training right yeah yeah yeah
[363]
before we even go to the to the mounting we just gonna make a little sideline
[369]
what's the price of this gate the price is 775 euros at this point and
[376]
there's gonna be a different GTO model a beefed-up GTO which is probably going to
[382]
be more than a thousand euros damnit I'd like to use I'm sorry this is not great
[387]
there's even the more expensive there's one coming out this time come with
[391]
golden just okay you guys tell us if you think I'm right or not so the next
[399]
version should have the gold GTO maybe
[405]
now so there the next one we have been working on a frame for a long time I
[410]
think it's over two years now and beefed up GTR will basically be the same boot
[416]
but it will feature a completely new frame so before going to the frame yeah
[422]
you need to tell us about the mounting system which is something unique right
[426]
yeah it is unique mounting so we developed a mounting I think we started
[430]
developing the mounting three years ago the idea behind the mounting was that
[436]
first the first hyper skate had a normal 165 mounting so that we actually
[442]
borrowed from speed skating because I also worked for speed skate company so
[447]
we borrowed this idea and it worked fine but in the end I did feel like it had a
[453]
bit more flex to it and we got a large demand of people wanting to use this
[458]
skate as a marathon skate basically that gave us a problem because most of the
[463]
frames are 195 if you want to go in wheel size for marathon skating so if
[469]
you want to have like 4 times 103 times 125 most of the times you go to 195
[477]
mounting distance so yeah he came he came to actually make the mounting
[485]
totally different - yeah so you can put more multiple frames on it actually but
[492]
we went a bit further and I think was three years ago we started developing
[497]
prototypes with a mounting that has actually four months in one so basically
[504]
it's 165 the normal standard for any free skate frame it is 195 as well so
[511]
then you just use the outside bolt like from lengthwise and it is also ufs basic
[519]
but then you need an adaptor on the back so we also provide these like aluminium
[526]
laser-cut so you can put it on by using the outer bolts so you can see that it
[532]
has like other bolts from the other side which comes to the other part this is
[539]
also a complete new mounting system which is called the Quattro mount and
[544]
that's going to be for adapt only so if you want the most high-end skate with
[550]
inner depth you will go to the Quattro mounting and that is only using the four
[555]
other bolts so not using the inside bolts which means we can lower all the
[562]
wheels and use the inside of the frame because the wheels for those of you
[568]
listening to these that might not know enough if you look on the sketch on the
[572]
side here on the inside usually there's there's the pole but if
[578]
you use these Quattro mount there's basically a hope and line in the middle
[582]
that makes creates a way for these wheels to go lower usually lower it
[587]
means more controlled yeah office gates also there are points
[591]
in the skate where actually we're up to three point eight
[596]
millimeter away from the wheel so calculating the insole the carbon layers
[601]
up to the wheel is three point eight millimeters in total so that's the
[606]
amount your foot is from the wheel so that's really important for us so that
[611]
it's really know okay so this is one frame yeah but behind here on the left
[616]
of your coffee which is my right there's something you want to speak a little bit
[619]
about that yeah sure so that you got to see that for the first time now yeah so
[625]
this is actually it's a prototype it's a very first prototype it is the new frame
[631]
which is basically the Quattro frame it is machined out from a solid block of
[638]
7068 aluminium so it's a lightweight aluminium now it's still it's still on
[644]
the heavy side now because we're still like we already had some different
[648]
stages and prototyping this is the first one the special thing about is that it
[654]
has only the other four bolts that we will be using this frame has 90
[660]
millimetres to 90 millimeters in the back and 84 in the front so basically
[665]
it's a high-low frame the idea behind it is that the front wheels will be as
[670]
close as possible to the boot same thing with the wheels in the back and not
[676]
changing the wheelbase too much because of this so if you would go all 90
[680]
millimeters it will get along but when someone buys the skate stock these comes
[686]
with four 90s right depends we have the 80 millimeter framed eighty four
[691]
millimeter frame and it does it depend on the size of the state or we advise a
[696]
certain size but the customer can choose it on the website so we will what I get
[700]
to the way you want what would you advise
[703]
depending on the size my size is 42 so us mine basically I advise 84 millimeter
[712]
and the reason behind it is the way I skated it and if you have
[717]
different style you will have a different frame for it but this frame
[722]
actually is developed it is two hundred fifty eight point eight millimeter from
[731]
wheel to wheel wheelbase and that is the exact point of the last bone in my foot
[737]
to the first bone in my foot which gives you in my opinion with this policy the
[744]
optimal the frame leg yes of course like you said it has to do with the type of
[749]
scary yeah you are mainly urban skater I'd like to go to the part you just
[753]
cruise around yeah but then if you if you would go for
[755]
down as you need a different yeah if you'd be like a speed slalom guy
[760]
probably wheels in the middle yeah all these things just like every other scale
[765]
would be different now wheels on these skates
[767]
what do you have your bearings what people rolling on these actually now
[771]
that this sample we have the normal bearing it's a symmetric but on the GTO
[776]
does so disc a it comes with a go project crown bearings they are always
[782]
standard I tested those bearings I think for a year I really love them before we
[787]
used a full ceramic very well partly some ceramic put a black ceramic which
[793]
is harder than the white ceramic we stepped away from it because basically
[798]
when there's sand or dust coming in it can damage scratch yes scratch the
[803]
bearing it will not roll smooth so we went for the crown bearing I really like
[809]
it and it has the same sort of lure to it it's a special bearing so it's a bit
[817]
different bearing than the other barrier you want
[820]
to have like only special yeah yeah and basically it's how I want it to be so
[825]
the GTO will always be how I skated so this way the new frame will come on
[832]
a special edition because this is the frame I want we can
[835]
go through the wheels will ya the wheels are a pretty high-end wheel and it's
[846]
yeah we like it all like all-black actually so I know a white wheel is
[852]
sometimes like normally it is better but with this wheel we will really picky on
[858]
on getting the right consistency and yeah I think we managed with these
[864]
wheels so it was very important and that's it
[868]
I guess yeah I guess we just show you the most expensive scare in the market
[875]
now you know why it cost 775 euros yeah and you also know there will be a
[882]
thousand over it I think it's this type of skirt like Peter told me and I've
[889]
said in several interviews before it's the type of skate for the person that
[893]
really wants something I and you know like a lot of people would spend all
[899]
like thousands of dollars like gonna in a bicycle yeah why not in this case if
[903]
this is your passion yeah well it's an investment if it's for
[906]
sure for a special type of customer and that's what I got is trying to do so I
[910]
hope you guys enjoyed this one if you did enjoy this one do not forget to give
[914]
us some thumbs up if you didn't like it thumbs down if you have any sort of
[918]
comment that you wanna give me or any feedback that you want to give to Peter
[923]
I'm sure it's gonna be reading the comments on this and that's it just
[928]
don't forget what we all started skating because it's fun cheers guys
