Razors Skates – Aggro Roots, Pro Performance

Born from action sports. Designed for the streets.
Razors started under the Sunshine Distribution umbrella, driven by founder Andy Wegner’s passion for windsurfing, snowboarding, and later, the raw energy of aggressive inline skating. What began as recreational skates in the late ’80s evolved quickly into hard-core, street-ready gear by the ‘90s.

Skater-Inspired Innovation

Razors builds skates with an obsessive attention to rider needs. Working directly with pros like Brian Shima, Jon Elliott, Dre Powell, and Brian Aragon, they’ve crafted iconic models like the Cult, Genesys, SL, and Shift—each launched at pivotal moments in skate culture and legendary for their performance.

The Evolution of Elite

• Cult (1998): The foundational hardboot that made Razors a benchmark in durability and grind control.
• Genesys (2001): Known as “the tank” of their lineup—tough, supportive, and precise for park and street.
• SL – Super Light (2008): A ground-breaking baseless design that dropped weight while boosting board feel.
• Shift (latest): Versatile, fast-change frame system—blending street grit with urban distance capability.

The Razors Edge

• Pro-Built Durability: From selective plastics to replaceable soulplates—built to withstand relentless sessions.
• Rider-Crafted Precision: Designed with real-world input from top pros—tested, refined, delivered.
• Baseless & Low: SL and Shift offer a low center of gravity and unmatched board connection.
• Clean & Functional: No fluff—just focused features: anti-rocker frames, UFS mounts, adjustable liners.

What the Community Says

Razors skates consistently receive love for their rugged feel and real-world performance. The SL model, especially, is praised for its ground-feedback and supportive fit—earning respect from Salomon-era veterans and new riders alike.
