Blueberry scented wheels (can't remember the name of them, but that smell was unforgettable)

I can't even tell you the number of those mission skates we sold back in the day. The PIAS I worked out was constantly re-ordering those models and they would fly off the shelves. 

I miss the wicked light mitts, great roller glove with the ventaliation. Kinda reminded me of a sort of cooper techniflex idea with no traditional cuff roll, they were mobile and the 3 fingers really wasn't noticeable, didn't hurt or really help.

ill add that I miss the Mission 714 glove, think they were from the summer of '02? Really interesting concept with a swapable cuff roll, I think mission was really onto something with these gloves and it's a shame they never built upon it. I think there might be a market now to reassure the idea and expand on it, not only with a swappable cuff roll but actual cuff as well.
