MY Remz are old… sooo old. I need new ones. However, i now face a dilemma. Should i take 08/3’s or OS2’s? I have my sights set on the OS2’s but I’m not sure if they’re as durable as normal remz. And if one of those staps break your f**ked. So, Anyone possesing these skates, can you tell me about them?

i’ve got 0803 and i must tell you i really like them

they made em bit easier to custom since u can take out cuff =) improved liner etc… and ofc course 0803 has freedom of feet, os2 doesnt

03 are better but if u wanna spare some money OS is good too =)

Yah, you can’t ride the OS2 cuffless, but that is the way I prefer it.

The straps are really durable, I skate my Remz three times a week the last 3 weeks now and I haven’t touched any of them in skating. And they’re so much better then Xsjado straps also!

OS2 also comes with the stock Jugs Precise liner, a tight leather liner wich locks your foot like a lion on safari.

For the rest, not much difference. Either you like it fat and cuffles (0803) or skinny and tight (OS2). The reason I bought OS is because the skinned Remz are too fat for my liking. Thats all.

eeek- no freedom of feet? oh dear. I got the jug precise liner after asking you, so im used to that, etc a bitch to put on for a few days, but comfy as hell once you take out that damn bit of cardboard in the tongue. In my opinion, the straps better be durable, coz i dont want a skate to die in a week n a half. I think theyre different cuffs- the new ones, but i spose i can stick on old cuffs. main thing i need to know though is how they skate. do they wobble? i find skinny skates can ruin my style a bit, so if the weight loss kills the stability, ill go with the 08/3s. and also, can anyone tell me about the new razors? the ones with out neoprene tassley thingys that are atupid. thanks

Yeah, except for the SL. I’ve never and will never ride them. I think they’re ugly and in my size they really look raped. If I go back to Razors again it will be a pair of Geneys, no doubt.

My OS2 are stable enough. Ofcourse I had to get used to them (I was coming from Razors) but that only took like 2 sesions. In the beginning and before I had them I was very sceptical about the cuff and I’d really wanted to change them up for a Razors cuff/ high Jug liner, but when I eventually put them on with the Vcuts, it was all love. I don’t miss my Razors a single bit. I love the way Remz has those bent edges on the soulplates, I was locking ao topporn like crazy last night.

I’m going to do the countersink holes in my soulplate though, like the Cults have. I think the Remz stock plates are kinda slow.
