It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Is there a video of them in action? Because they look like skates.

Drew Gooden did a video on them here, and spoiler alert they're horrible.

Shitty skates, but yeah, these look like they'd ride like shit.
