The FR Neo 1 Linda Zhu is a high-performance skate engineered for stability, performance, and expressive movement. Developed as the first signature skate for international champion and coach Linda Zhu, this model brings her extensive experience in Slides, Skatecross, and Freeride into a single design. It stands as one of the most advanced PU/PP hard-shell all-around skates available, a testament to both technical excellence and Linda's fluid skating philosophy.
Why It Is a Performance Powerhouse
-
Dynamic Control Shell: The single-density NEO 1 shell is constructed to provide enhanced support while maintaining natural flex patterns for dynamic, fluid control.
-
Exceptional Comfort & Hold: An extra padded, removable NEO liner increases comfort and foot hold, ensuring a secure and cushioned ride during demanding sessions.
-
R2 Dual-Diameter Setup: The innovative R2 dual-diameter flat frames use a 90mm-84mm-84mm-90mm wheel configuration, delivering a unique balance of acceleration, manoeuvrability, and stability.
-
Optimized Power Transfer: Integrated 5-point energy plates guarantee efficient power transfer and perfect frame alignment for confidence in every stride.
-
Natural Extended Feel: A lowered balance point, combined with natural flex and a finely tuned architecture, allows the skate to feel like a seamless, natural extension of the body.

Retailer Insight: The dual-diameter wheel setup (90mm on the ends, 84mm in the middle) is a fascinating choice. By placing the larger wheels at the front and back, it provides the superior roll and stability of a longer frame, but the smaller central wheels reduce the overall height for a lower centre of gravity and quicker turning response. It is a brilliant 'best of both worlds' configuration for multi-discipline skaters.
