Yesterday's Vision, Today's Reality(USD Coup De Tat) Rewind

USD has been a staple for rollerbladers for well over 10 Years now. Simplicity is what got them there, and innovation is whats driving the ship now. But, every now and then, paying homage to your roots makes for a stronger company. And what way for USD to pay homage, than to Re-release the boot that started a revolution in West Coast Rolling: the USD "Coup De Tat" Classic Throne. This boot comes complete with Kizer Fluid Frames, the New USD Diamond Liner, USD team wheels @57mm/89A and UC(Under Cover)Anti-Rockers.

When I started rolling this was one of those skates I immediately fell in love with. However because of the rebellion of skate shops on the east coast refusing to carry it, that I would get introduced to the Classic Bomb Throne later thereafter.  Today USD is a staple in rolling not only in the US but all over the world, producing the illest products under the Conference umbrella. With the Buyout of the carbon concept from company Deshi, which was also purchased during the negotiation, it's no wonder why their still consider one of the top companies in the game today.

Here's a little piece of history to remind you of all the great riders who've help them become one of the top dogs in rolling.
