Xsajdo Skates is a inline skate company that was originally started by Dustin Latimer. It took eight years of testing and tweaking the products to get them to a top grade standard. It features a unique and new foorwrap design which gives more control to the skater by full wrapping the foot in a shoe that is strapped tightly in by 2 straps and one snowboard binding-style strap.

[edit] History

Started by Dustin Latimer and backed by Solomon (Amer Sports), the boot design was a revolution to the inline with unique binding/footwrap design.

After 8 years of testing the first prototypes, the skates were released as the Basic 1's and Latimer 1's. When Solomon skates stopped it's involvement in the aggressive inline market, Xsjado's future was up in the air. The brand was sold to Powerslide Distribution; who's company roster features USD, Deshi, Kizer, Undercover and Stigma. After a year or so out of business Xsjado are back with New Basic 08 and Farmer 2's for 2008.
