“Another instant classic from USD is the AEON 80. The perfect hybrid of aggressive, freestyle and urban skating.

A simple concept that provides an exceptional function. The Aeon is a unibody skate, which means the boot, soulplate and frame is made of a one piece construction. This results in less parts, lower weight and first and foremost a super low center of gravity with maximum energy transfer. This gives you the ultimate control over every trick you make, weather it's a jump, a grind or a slide. The Aeon 80 comes stock with a 4x80mm setup of Powerslide Spinner wheels and WCD ABEC 7 bearings. The skate is the perfect blend of aggressive and urban skating, 80mm wheels coupled with such generous grinding space is not available anywhere else on the market. The skate also features a MYFIT Skinny Boy liner, a soft, yet supportive liner that can be heat molded to your foot providing exceptional comfort from the very first use. It also comes as standard with a shock absorber, a MYFIT innersole and a 45° ratchet buckle that locks the heel in place to further increase your control of the skate. The two way ‘rockerable' cuff, mounted by each ankle, wraps around the foot for maximum side ways support on grinds and carves but still allowing great flex to the front for comfortable strides.” - Powerslide Skates
