Alright, guys, Nomura here. I know that we have some inline skaters here, and a lot of anime fans. What if I were to tell you that the parts war was real? And, reconfigured to accomodate actual inline skates? Well, it exists, and it is online.

The system is brand new, and welcomes skating veterans and beginners, speed and trick skaters, quad skates and inline skates, agressive and freestyle. If you skate, you're welcome.

Concerning the air gear series, the class system is intact, with little change. The roads system is up as well, with realistic versions of the roads from the series.

For those of you unfamiliar with the anime, (and quote from the parts war site...

"Parts War is a new way of competitive skating based off on ideas from the popular anime and manga "Air Gear" by Oh! Great. The system we developed was made to suit the real world and gives inline/skaters a new way to enjoy the sport! Using everything they loves about the sport, skaters can compete against other skaters in a fast-paced, adrenaline fueled race on land, through the air and on rails! Even a beginner can gain the experience to rise in through ranks with enough practice! A Parts War battle is a competition between two skaters or two teams of skaters in which they compete for items. In our system, a Parts War can be declared for parts, courses for competition, the emblem of the losing team to add to the winning's team's collection (Emblem Battles traditionally result in the "disbandment" of the losing team), or simply for Rank Up points which raise the team's rank after three points, a victory against a higher ranked team/rider results in an automatic rank up. The event the skaters, known as Storm Riders or simply Riders, participate in are different depending on their rank. Even a rookie skater can become a Storm Rider and, starting in E class, rise to the very top of the ranks and become an A class Rider! If you're an experienced skater or are just now getting into skating and love exciting high speed, high flying, fast grinding competition then you will feel right at home with your fellow Riders! Welcome to the world of Parts War!"

And to describe the roads system: like martial arts, no two people ride skates the same way. However, some styles of riding are similar to others. We've lumped these styles into eight common styles or "roads."

Anyway, if you skate, or used to skate, or are contemplating skating, come over and sign up! We look forward to the competition.

*Also note that this is not an anime fansite, roleplay site or a place to discuss the "development" of currently fictional motorized inline skates that may or may not ever exist, AT's as some will call them. These are forums specifically designed to be used by those looking to get involved with a new and innovative form of inline/skating competition. If you're looking for a board created for the discussion of the "Air Gear" anime, roleplay or motorized skate development, you should continue looking. If you're here looking to get involved with a reality-based Parts War inline skating community designed for competing with and against other inline skaters, then you've found what you've been looking for!

I have to say I'm very interested in this. I love the idea that Oh! Great came up with. I'm not much of a skater anymore, as it has been five years- but I wouldn't mind starting again if it makes it an even bigger thrill (:

I would really suggest starting up! It's quite a fun thing.

Bump

Bump.

This needs more attention.
I used to be a kind of speed skater, I really pushed my self to the limits, I created obstacles for my self and shit. I remember skating in the parking lot and the loop and my local bus station late at night.
But I gave up blading for skate boarding.
I didn't have much friend to skate with anyway. Actually it was only me.
This could probably be just what I need to get back into it.

I hope so, man! You'd be a great addition to the parts war network!! I know how it goes to be the only blader in your area. I really do.

Plus, it's on sports. There's no attention here.

Like I said one post up.

So I'm checking how popular this is and a few team videos world wide. It's kind of cool. I'm actually quite curious to join. But I haven't bladed in so long, and I sold my old skates. >_<
I'll check if their are a few teams in my town, I'll buy a new pair later.

NOMURA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOUR IN THE DOLLARS TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!???????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

>>10 Xissx, there aren't many teams yet, but we're getting there.

>>11 Haha, you got me man.

>>10 if you join tell your friends were always looking for riders.

>>13 His issue and the reason he stopped blading was because ther weren't any bladers in his area.

so thats a problem for me to but after people saw me do it others seem to start become a trend setter.

Haha, right man.

Quick question though. How old are you two? Just so I can get the idea of the people who take part.
I don't want to be some old ass 17 year old skating with a bunch of 14 year olds just because they saw the anime. >_<

im sixteen hes seventeen and the age ranges ive seen thirteen year olds and twenty-two tear olds so your fine.

Yeah man, the admins are all over twenty, and many of the serious skaters are around the sixteen or seventeen age range.

We're doing all we can to cut down on the fan stuff, and turn this into a workable system.

Wow, amazing :D too bad my skates aren't made for tricks and stuff :( but i guess i could use some practice before i get aggressive ones.

Please do consider joining. We're always up for new teams and riders.

And, for the first three matches, the F-class matches, it's a dash, a race.

I joined last night :) Tempest Queen here and i'm waiting for approval. There's no one i know who does rollar blading so i'm going solo.

Sweet! Welcome to Parts War Network!

Why bump something that is clearly dead

>>52
Because Sports board needs organization, and this thread sure as hell beats having spam and duplicate threads up top.

so shush

I'd rather have spam and duplicates than seeing this keep popping up

>>54
If you'd rather have spam and dupes, then your opinion is absolutely invalid on this board.

>>54 And fuck you too. Not dead, just forgotten. It's not as much a discussion as the information on a sport. Thus, as long as it's bumped, it's live. Thank you, Haru.

Hmm..interesting. The anime was nice, though not the best I did like it. This is a nice idea. If I had time and where in the right area perhaps I would try this. However right now it wouldn't work. Possibly another time. All the same though this is to say the least a good way to get some people into skating and have some fun with it. Nice work.

OTB

^^^^^^ Sifu, if you check it out that would be great!

Gamercat Bumps ^

This is so fucking cool!

You think so? Sign up, man!!

^^

bump

^^Bump up the jam, bump it up.^^

Chuu ^^'

This sounds amazing. I used to inline skate a lot around town, and am getting back into the sport. Although I don't know if there are any teams around me that are into this. You should totally make a site to map teams or for people to sign up

We've got a full forum up, and we're currently setting up an official site, keep track on partswar.net!

And, get registered, man! It's gonna be huge, I promise that.
