Speed is the essence of war. Take advantage of your enemy’s unpreparedness.
- Sun Tzu
The Marchese Ikazuchi 953 is the weapon of choice for prepared warriors trained in the art of winning.
The rumors are true. Cado Motus and Marchese Racing have joined forces to create the ultimate long-track weapon. These are the skates you've been waiting for. In a sport where fractions of a second determine victory, this new set-up will make your next stride matter more by sharpening your winning advantage.
The boots: Marchese semi-custom craftsmanship, world-class attention to detail, uncompromising demand for excellence. They are the platform for greatness.
The blades: Marchese Record blades, unmistakable by its unique 'Open Tube' finish. These are blades your competitors will shrink from, featuring:
- Reynolds 953 ultrastrong Mar-Aging steel tubing, maintaining the bend longer
- High-precision robot laser welding that ensures a lifetime blade-to-runner fixation
- PM-grade bimetal runner for the best glide properties and sharpest blade possible
- 7075-grade aluminium clap system fitted with 688 TwinCam® ILQ cartridge bearings: lightweight, strong and durable
- Oversized linear springs to increase performance lifetime
The Reynolds 953 ultra-strong tubing featured on RECORD LT blades maintains bend for longer, and combines with the PM-grade bimetal runner to create a blade up to 3x stronger than others, with the same flex range. Your investment in training deserves this pay-off. These are your direct rails to the victory you crave.
