Marsblade

Hi, Pricing: I understand that the swedish price seems a bit high for you as the dollar is low right now, but the price in North America will be different from the price in Sweden. Durability: As far as for warranty we have a 12 month warranty on the chassis. We have not any had any problems with durability so that is not a problem. We have made our own extensive lab testing and there has also been lab testing done by two large potential license partners that both said the durability is extremely good. Marsblade vs Sprung: Got this feedback from an old user of Sprung "Per, I got the skates mounted on my old MLX skates, and I have been on them for about 2 months. I've played 4 pretty intense pickup games, and I can honestly say that I feel like I am skating better than ever. The marsblade is so easy to skate on it's crazy. The difference between your frame and the sprungs is really noticeable. The marsblade gives much, much better feel. I spent a few skating sessions working to fine tune the setup, and I have it right how I want it now. Thanks for working with me to make this happen." //Per

The pricing will be different on each market. However, we are launching an Ambassadors offer within a couple of weeks.

Glad that you're interested in our product! Yes, I totally understand your feedback and we are actually launching a package without wheels and bearings. It's being produced as we speak. The large package will be about 249 USD and without wheels and bearings it will be about 199 USD. We will launch a Ambassadors offer on the large package within a couple of weeks so keep your eyes out for that on our web and facebook. All the best //Per

Hi guys! My name is Per Mårs and I'm the inventor of Marsblade. Since it has been discussed in this thread I thought that I could tell you a bit about the product and the story. Originally I developed it to improve my off season training as I didn't have access to ice during the summers and wanted to be able to develop a proper skating technique and activate the right muscles. During the development process I also found out that the rocker did not only improve my off season training, it also gave a lot smoother movement pattern, quicker turns and more fluid and efficient stride. I'm really glad to se this specific topic since the problem of switching from ice to inline and vice versa was exactly what I wanted to solve. We launched in Sweden last spring and haven't been able to launch in North America yet since we are still a small company. This is why customers in North America haven't been able to purchase in our web-shop yet. However, we are now in the phase of launching in a small scale in North America this spring and will open the shop during the spring. We are exhibiting at the Let's Play Hockey Expo 7-8 March in Minnesota, if you're there, please feel free to stop by at our booth. Please feel free to ask any questions should you have any. Best Regards Per Mårs, Marsblade

During the development process I also found out that the rocker did not only improve my off season training, it also gave a lot smoother movement pattern, quicker turns and more fluid and efficient stride. I can see some comments regarding our pricing. I can say that we will have a different pricing in North America once we launch there. The full set including 10 Labeda wheels and Sonic bearings will be about 249 dollars. We are also launching a box without the wheels and bearings that will be about 199 dollars. I have had feedback from customers that have tried the other products that has tried to solve the same problem, like Sprung, Tuuk rocker, etc and they all are amazed by how much more similar to ice skating Marsblade is compared to them all. We now have 10-15 of the best Swedish NHL players using Marsblade and also a number of the best Swedish Elite League teams as well. We launched in Sweden last spring and haven't been able to launch in North America yet since we are still a small company. This is why customers in North America haven't been able to purchase in our web-shop yet. However, we are now in the phase of launching in a small scale in North America this spring and will open the shop during the spring. We will soon launch an "Marsblade Ambassadors offer" giving the first 300 to sign up a very nice deal on our kit. I'll post it here for sure as soon as we have it out. We are exhibiting at the Let's Play Hockey Expo 7-8 March in Minnesota, if you're there, please feel free to stop by at our booth. Please feel free to ask any questions should you have any.
