The Story
The Rookie 78 is a classic quad skate that evokes feelings of 1970s beach dreams.

Balancing vintage aesthetics with modern performance features, this skate is the perfect entry point for those wanting to start their skate journey.
The Practical Benefits
-
Supported Comfort: The vegan-friendly synthetic upper is designed to provide essential ankle support. This is paired with a luxury fleece lining, which enhances the fitment and comfort, allowing you to keep your skates on for longer sessions.
-
Responsive and Lightweight Handling: Both the chassis and the trucks are constructed from nylon. This makes the skate significantly lighter than metal-plated models, reducing fatigue and making the skates responsive to your movements.
-
Controlled Rolling: The 58mm wheels are specifically sized to offer great control and manoeuvrability. With an 78A durometer, they are ideal for fast rolling, performing particularly well on smooth outdoor surfaces.
-
Versatile Balanced Trucks: The truck angle is carefully balanced to support a wide range of use. This makes the Rookie 78 suitable for diverse activities, including leisure, dance, artistic, and disco skating.
