SEBA IGOR PRO PRO

As High Light Carbon Pro are specialized slalom skates, they come with rockered frame. Although the upper shelf skates made by Seba younger sibling, the FR Skates, come with Deluxe V3 frames (which are more delicate design), the V2 is still a great piece of aluminum and performs well in both urban environment and between the cones.

The frame used in High Light Carbon 80 should be well known to any seasoned freeskater – it’s Deluxe V2 frame, one of the best designs available when it comes down to freestyle and freeskating frames. They also offer 7 threaded holes for mounting screw, allowing for a wide range of frame positioning options as well as good compatibility with 165mm mounting standard frames. The metal plates embedded in frame mounting points serve as a reinforcement of boot-frame connection, greatly increasing the solidity of a whole skate. It’s one of the key aspect why this skate is so well suited to freestyle slalom in the first place. The level of support it gives is truly outstanding and no composite cuff can match it. This part will be familiar to anyone who used Seba Igor skates – it’s exactly the same cuff. A solid, high quality traditional buckle with receiver ends the matter of closure.Ĭuff is made from carbon as well and provides excellent support. 45 degree micrometric buckle lock the heel in place and adds a bit to the overall boot rigidity. The skate comes with additional Velcro in toe area, giving more snug fit and better control on front wheeling tricks. Lacing holds the foot in place well on its own, especially if lace the boot to the very top. High Light Carbon Pro boots are up to the task no matter if you prefer urban skating, downhill, inline alpine or freestyle slalom. To make the skate more durable, Seba put a replaceable slider on the side of the boot and a plastic composite (rubber-like material) cover on toe area – these parts prevent damage during falls, slides or slalom tricks like toe footgun.

Outer skin of the skate is made from resistant material and have some degree of rigidity to it – it wouldn’t be fair to call these skates “softboots”, really. The boot is also equipped with shock absorber, increasing comfort of skating over uneven pavements and landing jumps. Underneath the foot resides an insole with arch support. The level of control in these skates is truly great and will satisfy most demanding skaters. The integrated padding is anatomically shaped to lock the heel as good as possible and provide excellent responsiveness.

Full carbon shell of course means that skate is lighter, but also more resistant and long-lasting. The shell used in Pro version is made entirely out of carbon (contrary to cheaper “80 version which have addition of glass fibre) and will feel familiar to anyone who skated old style Seba Igors. So, if you were happy with how older Igors felt on your feet and look for a replacement – High Light Carbon Pro are worth to give them a try. Yes, Igor Cheremetieff’s pro model is now made by FR Skates brand – but the boot has been greatly altered and is basically a whole new skate compared to predecessors made by Seba. In fact, considering that these come with pre-rockered frames and carbon cuffs, it can be said that High Light Carbon Pro are nothing else than a direct continuation of Seba Igors. If you are reading this, that means you’ve ended up on High Light Carbon Pro page in our store – the more high end freestyle slalom oriented of the two. There’s a more affordable “80” version and more expensive “Pro” one – but truth is, both skates are different enough from each other that it is only fair to take them as separate models. High Light Carbons are made to this day, in two different flavors. After several years another skate came out, built on foundation of these skates – the High Light Carbons.

High Carbon weren’t around for long and ultimately, their shell served as a base for Igor skate. Before elite of freestyle slalom made the jump to lightweight skates with integrated padding, a carbon-based version of standard High skate came out – with replaceable liner, being halfway between the older style skates and what was about to come shortly. It stayed that way up to about year 2010, when carbon revolution hit the market and soon, skates like Seba Igor and Powerslide Hardcore Evo took the top spot.

Seba High were the first skates designed for freestyle slalom from the ground up and for a good while, THE SKATES to have if someone wanted to compete at high level.
