The skates were created in collaboration with Spanish champion Linda Zhu.
FR SKATES NEO 1 LZ Promodel delivers exceptional stability, control, and comfort for skaters who push their limits in Skatecross, Freeride, and Slides.
Known for her outstanding technique in Slides and Skatecross/Freeride, Linda has infused this model with her many years of experience. The result is a skate designed for top-level performance, stability, and free, expressive movement. This Promodel is not only a tribute to her influence within the skating community, but also one of the most advanced all-around PU/PP hard-shell skates ever developed.
The boot is built around a single-density NEO 1 shell, providing enhanced support while preserving natural flex for dynamic and fluid control. The removable, extra-padded liner increases comfort and foot hold, delivering a secure and cushioned feel during slides, urban skating, and freeride sessions.
The flat R2 frame with dual-diameter wheels (90-84-84-90 mm) offers a unique balance of acceleration, maneuverability, and stability. Combined with FR Downtown 85A wheels and Twincam MW9 bearings, this setup ensures fast roll, excellent grip, and consistent performance across a wide range of skating styles.
Like all models in the NEO series, this Promodel is designed with a focus on freedom of movement, maximum comfort, and high precision. The lowered center of gravity, natural flex, and finely tuned shell architecture make the skate feel like a natural extension of the body. The NEO liner provides excellent cushioning and mobility, while the 4-position cuff adjustment and double adjustable straps allow a highly customizable fit for different foot shapes. The 5-point energy plates ensure efficient power transfer and precise frame alignment for maximum stability and confidence in every stride.
This model blends technical excellence with Linda Zhu’s skating philosophy: fluidity, adaptability, and a deep connection between skater and skate.
