Introducing FANTASY 72, the Robbie Pitts Pro Skate: a collaboration born
out of a desire to celebrate the past, present and future of inline
skating. Crafted in partnership with Powerslide, PlayLife, MyFit, Kizer,
and Robbie Pitts’ world of Otto Novo, FANTASY 72 is a vibrant retro
meets future skate design, made for a world where function and fashion
work hand-in-hand.
For as space age as it may appear, FANTASY
72’s performance is as impressive as its looks. It begins by utilizing
the PlayLife boot as the bedrock for the design, which whilst have been
given a makeover, the skate remains reliable and familiar with its sleek
and classic supportive hard-shell fit. Robbie’s new pro model Prime
Liner sits inside the shell, illuminating the skate’s blue translucent
PU material with a glow from the inside out. It is tailored to his
exacting standards for not only comfort but of course:
aesthetics—appropriately decorated using neon and fur. The Liner
additionally features moveable velcro patches that can be placed on the
outside material adding an extra layer of flair that is visible beneath
the skate’s exterior. Envisioning a hybrid skating experience,
Robbie wanted to provide a skate where the modes of recreational and
aggressive are interchangeable in a moment’s notice. The combination of
the Sway soul plate and the KIZER Advance 72 frame allow for a world
where speed and maneuverability become intertwined with grinding
accessibility. Finally the skate rolls on multicolored 72mm wheels with
Wicked ABEC 9 chrome bearings, to not only brighten up the world’s most
rugged terrain but to ensure a smooth and effortless ride. FANTASY
72’s design is nothing short of stunning, exuding a charisma much like
Robbie himself. Embrace the essence of Robbie Pitts with every
stride—own this skate, express your truest self and fall in love with
skating: once again or for the very first time!
