Snowboard bindings are meant to work with snowboarding boots for ankle support. Regular boots wont cut it and you could very easily break an ankle with that setup. An old pair of skis and ski boots would probably work much better. Ski boots are much stiffer with much more ankle support and the skis, after you cut them down, would be pretty easy to bolt onto things. You could even use the flex of the skis to create some shock absorption.

I am flabbergasted. Dude figures out snowboard bindings to connect feet to skates, good for him. He then spends the whole video complaining about a lack of ankle support AND DOESN'T LOOK INTO THE BOOTS THAT GO INTO THE BINDINGS THAT ARE MEANT TO SOLVE THIS VERY PROBLEM. This video is pain.

I find so many people that are underrated, that make builds and are creative on their own, I love watching these videos even though I don't have interest, but this guy catches my interest. People like this guy and more underrated people need more recognition.

If you wanna try again, there are 'UFS' rollerblade boots for aggressive rollerblades that are one-piece and the wheel and frame come off, leaving only the boots. and most of them have superb ankle support and padded inner boots and insoles. They're more expensive, but safer.

You have to wear snowboarding boots for the bindings to work properly....
Because boots actually lock your ankle from moving around too much.
The only reason you don't have control is because your ankle is bending around with out any support.

Snowboard boots would really improve this whole thing. Proper fit in the bindings and ankle support would be way better.

And run all the way through the “Amazon” ahahahahahahahah! EPIC! 🤣👊🏻

Great idea executed very well... this video has viral potential, wether it gets there or not. Keep up what you're doing and you will eventually be very succesful (beyond what you are already).

This type of skate is called cross skate (or Skike), btw. and yes, it's a thing, mostly an exercise device for XC skiers with skating technique, but some people use it to go down mountains.

10/10 impressed. Jake said 6/10, that’s a lie. even if you just had that, (talking about the Previous model) i’m super impressed

[beerexpert]

I'm a rollerblader and I feel like I could ride the hell out of these.

[luigi]

double the cool, jake! you literally go through so much physical pain to make your viewers happy, you deserve infinite likes and subs

[ChristheDesignar]

seems like ski boots would have alot better lateral stability than snowboard bindings. Also, I think the caster of the steering can be used. I, as a kid, would take my brother and I's scooters (with no handlebars on them) and "ski" on them downhill. worked well. fun project!

[karlmaust]

I know you probably won't revisit this but, if you mount the boots below the center of the wheels, it should make it easier to balance and provide additional support to the legs. I say, take your original design and make the wheelbase shorter then mount your feed almost to the very bottom. Or, take just one wheel from the first design and make it that way. Either way, good content. Keep it up!

Edit: also, use snowboard boots. They provide ankle support all the way up the calves and would give you 100% more control. I bet your friend would say it's 10/10 after that 😉

Dude I can watch your videos for hours and hours that's how good they are this is what you call real gold talent keep doing what you doing don't let the haters tell you that you're doing something bad cuz I love your videos I'm subscribed with notifications yeah man you should keep doing what you're doing

How to tell apart novice vs expert roller skater? Experts know that wrist protection on rollerblades is much more important than knee or elbow ones.

Bro no 🧢 your going to be the best YouTuber Ever!

[GeorgesDPrinters]

Guess you never seen a scooter with 12" wheels and brakes? I hand one as a kid, in the 80's. Still sold, and I got some for my own kids. Way better then a razor. Has all the parts you want, 12" wheels, cable linked brakes that can go on handle or ski pole.
