Riedell Juice Rhythm Skates Review

Riedell’s story begins over 60 years ago with Paul and Sophie Riedell.  The only goal was to produce skates of the finest quality for both ice skating and roller skating.  Paul is now a member of the ice and roller skating hall of fame.  Paul’s heart is both in the roller skating world and the ice skating world.  Because roller skating has evolved and because there is now a demand for specialized roller skates, Riedell has created a variety of high quality Radar Wheels, Power Dyne plates and Kwik bearings.  The company continues to stay in the family as Paul’s grandsons Bob, Dan, Scott and Paul Riegelam carrying on the quality and traditions that had made Riedell one of the biggest names in skating.

Riedell Juice Rhythm Riedell Juice Rhythm Skates Review

Rhythm skates are typically for skaters who want to own the roller rink floor.  They are designed for dancing , shuffle skating and sliding.  It’s those people that appear to skate effortlessly on the rink floor.  You know, those who look like professionals or the people that work at the roller rink.  Rhythm skates are designed for you to move with the beat of the music while having the proper ankle support you need with a high top boot.

Riedell Boot

The Riedell  Juice Rhythm skates come with the Riedell 120 black boot. The 120 Award boot comes with a Leather upper, Drilex lining, ankle padding (which is nice to have) and reinforced quarters. This is a common boot in the Riedell line up and is loved by many skaters. The boot is commonly used with the Artistic , Rhythm and Outdoor skates. The boot comes in a variety of sizes and widths for that perfect fit.

Plate

The plate on these skates were made for intermediate to advanced skaters which is perfect for the Rhythm skater.  The plate is the PowerDyne Triton Aluminum Plate.  This plate is a wide foot plate hich provides a more stable feel when skating and comes with a matte anodized finish.  In addition to the the previously mentioned features it also has a 15 degree kingpin angle for more power transfer.  It’s a very thoughtful design on the part of Reidell.

Wheels

The wheels are the Radar Varsity 62mm 98A which come in the color black. The 98A is a very hard wheel and I would highly recommend that you keep skating indoors unless you change them for something softer.

Bearings

The bearings are Reidell’s very own Kwick ABEC-9 bearing. The ABEC-9 bearing give this skate plenty of roll and makes the skating experience effortless.

Toe Stop

The Juice skates have the option of either a jam plug or fixed toe stop. The skates will come with the jam plug.

The Reidell Juice Rhytmn skates are ideal for a skater that knows his way around a skating rink or for the person that wants an enjoyable skating experience.  Please remember that these boots are made in men’s sizes so order accordingly.
