Overview

Powerslide Core Performance Inline Speed Skate Frames target kid speed skaters, young athletes, and/or entry-level speed skaters. Amazing quality and performance at a reasonable price, that is comfortable to skate. 
 
The Performance 4x90 (11.25") Frames are 2 in 1 in that they can also skate 3x100mm.  Flat sidewalls bring direct power transfer to make it easier to achieve an efficient push. The top of the frames (mounting) is slightly wider to enhance stability and help learn to control edge to edge faster. CNC machined to not just look like a professional high-end frame, but perform like one.

No complaintsI've been skating on Powerslide 325mm 3×125 Core Performance frames and have been satisfied. They came included with the 3×125 Core Performance skates. (The Core Performance boots are pretty good too but with more room for improvement.) I generally do 20 to 40 km at a time on asphalt and concrete. My reference for comparison doesn't include any other 195mm skates; it's mostly PS "Elite" Trinity-mount cast magnesium 318mm 3×125. I've had no problem specific to this frame. One frame of the pair weighs 219 grams alone, 240 g including axles, frame bolts, and washers. The other is reassuringly consistent, 221 g alone; 242 g total. Which brings us to a couple comparisons with a similar product, Rollerblade Rival frames, which come in 195mm-mount 325mm-long 3×125 option just like this PS Core Performance. I haven't skated on the Rival frames but they seem well-built. They're supposedly 7000-series aluminum--which generally can be made lighter than 6061 aluminum--yet they weighed 9 grams more per frame than the Core Performance. Maybe they're built to be stronger? Another difference: the RB Rival has logo and other markings on the left side of one frame and the right of the other, while Core Performance has all the same markings on both sides of both frames, i.e. it's 2 identical "ambidextrous" frames; no clear left or right. The mounting surfaces have Powerslide's special notch pattern to retain their pitch control or stride control wedges, and I can attest this is definitely preferable to trying to hold or otherwise affix wedges in the correct position and orientation while tightening frame bolts. Much easier with Powerslide wedges mated to a Powerslide frame. Other aspects of the wedges leave a bit to be desired, but if you need them they can work. Related note about torque: I've used a 4 N•m Prestacycle Torqkey for axles and frame bolts for over 2000 km without issue until installing wedges. Torqued to 4 N•m with wedges on these carbon 195mm boots, frame bolts loosen (super quickly). With the wedges, torquing frame bolts to 7 N•m seems to work. I haven't skated these frames with brakes mounted but have confirmed the Powerslide Megacruiser 125 brake can be mounted (the steel brake frame and exchanging axles adds a net weight of 255 grams) as can the Rollerblade Shadow Brake 125 (net +164 grams, being made apparently of ABS).
