Ben Schwab prototype Xsjado footwraps (click to enlarge)
One of rollerblading’s most unique skaters, Ben Schwab, will be receiving his own footwrap from skate company, Xsjado, said to be released this summer. As you can see in the photo above the approach seems to be a more casual basic sneaker design that looks wearable outside of skating.
Sean Kelso prototype glow in the dark USD’s
In other prototype news, Sean Kelso originally posted a full boot picture of his USD prototype which is said to glow in the dark but then later changed it to this cropped version. It’s not for certain if the whole setup can glow in the dark but rumors are that only the cuff will be able to. As well, according to SK, via the be-mag messageboard, these will not be coming out anytime soon and it’s no surprise seeing as how most USD’s riders are currently skating the Deshi carbons.

Hey! I actually got to see these babies in person at the Kelso’s house in April. They’re pretty tight!!! I didnt turn off the lights to see what actually glows tho… but theyre still gnarly and def the only pair out there!
So if he ever tries to sell em for some reason.. cop em!
