Description

The Sure-Grip Fame is a quality indoor skate for beginners in artistic skating. This skate is made of a vinyl boot with soft microfiber lining, Rock plates, and has Sure-Grip Fame 57mm wheels mounted on Abec-5 bearings.

This skate uses Rock brand plates, which are made from ultra tough nylon and compares to Sure-Grip’s Probe plate. This means that these are the strongest nylon plates around. There’s a reason why it sets a standard in the industry.

Sure-Grip designed their Fame boot with comfort in mind and are perfect for a beginner skater. The Fame wheels are the perfect choice for artistic skating, whether you’re a beginner or a professional.

If you’re interested in artistic skating or are already competing like a champ, do yourself a favor and pick yourself up a pair of these skates. You won’t regret it!

    Good skate. Don’t have any complaints.

    These skates are incredibly comfortable, and with a soft but padded boot, require little to no break-in time at all. The wheel base is shorter front to back than some other plates, which makes this skate very maneauverable for tight, quick turns, especially once the trucks are loosened 1/2 turn. If the indoor wheels are changed out for soft outdoor wheels (Sure Grip Motion wheels highly recommended), this is a great outdoor skate as well. The Carrera toe-stop that comes with this skate can also be substituted with larger, more substantial toe stops as needed, or replaced with jam plugs for rhythm skating.
    The only negative I have experienced is that the eyelets for the laces can tear through the vinyl boot, particularly at the ankle flex area, with heavy use.
    The boot size tends to run large, so careful measurement of the foot, or going down a shoe size might be recommended.

    I’m a skating carhop at Sonic and got these after my Chicago skates that finally wore down, biggest mistake. These skates were amazing, I purchased the indoor Fame skates and ordered the Boardwalk wheels separate. They definitely got me through falls, wet floors, and rough concrete, and stunts! But after a couple months in, the boot of the skate began to rip, like the glue was not strong enough. Don’t expect these to last you long.

  • This location is not really a 'store' but more of a workshop/storage for their online business. I did not know this when I came in initially but the guy working helped me so much. He let me try on skates and put together a package for my first set of Roller Derby quads. He set everything up quickly, and I was able to pick them up the next day. He even sent me a text when they were ready to go. Highly recommend this shop, though be aware their hours are very vague.

    I don't even know where to start so here it goes❣ Ok So my son bought me a pair of skates from another skate shop. When I received them, they were so big, and I had no control. I went off their size recommendations, but it was wrong. So I searched and searched and finally found devaskation. They were terrific from beginning to end. We communicated through email, and they were able to get me in the skates I needed in the right size. On top of just being fantastic, they built me the skates correctly to accommodate my disability needs. Side note, I'm disabled and have an autoimmune disease, which causes 24/7 pain/numbing feeling throughout my whole body and uses a cane for assistance. I've been rolling around my house for a few weeks now and noticed the difference from devastation built skates. I can stop so much easier and no pain. I've gain muscle mass back, and my energy has gone up. I owe this to Jen, Scott, Dan & the rest of the team at Devaskation. They were so patient and accommodating. When in doubt, just come here for all your skating needs. They will hook you up. And shipping was lightning fast & great prices. The best experience I've had. Thanks again for everything, you guys. Xoxo Veronica

  • I ordered Impala Marawa skates for myself last Christmas. These skates are so durable! But let me say that Deveskation has earned me as a customer for life. The skates were in within a week, I have had no issues with them at all.

    I ordered bearings from these guys and they were out of stock. Dan just called me and upgraded me for free because of the mistake. They’re a great shop and most companies would have just cancelled my orders. These guys are great and I definitely have a new skate shop to recommend.

    THERE IS A SKATE SHORTAGE AND IT IS NO ONE'S FAULT! Back to the review: I called and left a message, and within an hour or so, Jen got back to me and we set an appointment for me to come in and try on the few pair they had in my size. Jen was an ABSOLUTE DELIGHT! Her welcoming energy is the reason why I choose to shop small. Devaskation/Jen was a treasure and I am so glad I was able to support them during this pandemic. Thanks Jen, my new skates will be worn with a smile 😁🌹

  • Dope shopping experience! New-ish to quad skating... I was able to watch the entire package install and check out the warehouse. Costumer service was spot on and genuine and authentic.

    I ordered a pair of tough to find skates and when FedEx lost my package for a few days, the guys at Devaskation called and offered to send me their own pair of the same exact skates they had set aside for themselves! Cool!

  • Recently I ordered here nice slalom blades and I was mistaken with the size, but Devastation team changed it and sent me again the same blades of bigger size , everything was fast and reliable, good answers to all my questions, excellent service! I’m so glad I’ve found this shop, now I’m happy blader!

    I feel very lucky that Devaskation is my local skate shop. Having been in to the shop multiple times in the last year and I always come out with exactly what I was looking for. I've purchased 3 pairs of Jackson skates from Devaskation for myself and family, everyone has been super happy with them. The staff has always been super helpful in helping me select the right wheels for my usage, provided me with the tools to maintain my skates, and always throw in extra schwag. Great selection of wheels, bearings, and stoppers. Check them out online or call the store to get what you're looking for. Highly recommended 👍
