Update: The Reebok 11k roller hockey skates are now available at Inline Warehouse for $599.99! Head over to IW now to check them out!
In 2009, Reebok released an amazing line of roller hockey skates. Their traditional black and white boots made for a classic, but fresh look. The biggest problem, and what surely kept a lot of people from buying them (myself included), was the tri-diameter chassis. The 72-76-80-80 wheel setup is not as fast as other setups, had durability issues, and can be a hassle to replace wheels for. Companies like Tour provide top end speed with an all 80mm wheel setup on the Hum’er Chassis. Mission and Bauer on the other hand, roll with a 76-76-80-80 chassis to provide enhanced agility in addition to speed.
Now, in 2011, we will be seeing the new Reebok 11k roller hockey skate, complete with brand new Labeda Hum’er chassis and Labeda Addiction wheels! This is huge news for Reebok and their roller hockey brand. People who love the Hum’er chassis, but want a different style boot, will no longer have to convert their skates to get what they want.
Beyond having a great new chassis, the boot looks absolutely amazing. Reebok is sticking with the same black and white color scheme, and added in some green wheels to go along with the green pump. I don’t know that I’ve ever been so pumped for a pair of skates, and can’t wait to see what the 9k skates will look like.
If you’re looking at getting the new Reebok 11k inline skates, you won’t have to wait long. The skates are now available at Inline Warehouse for only $599.99.
