 Luigino は Rollerblade 社と技術提携し、革新的スピードブーツ Rollerblade LE をリリースすると発表。以前から、Rollerblade 社は Team Rollerblade に提供するカスタムブーツを Marian Skate などに委託していたフィットネススケート重視の会社なので、技術提携で得たモノが普及品にフィードバックされればユーザーには有難いかも。プレスリリースに Ippolito Sanfratello の名が何度も出てくるので、この提携に尽力したキーマンだったようです。しかし、単にアジアで共同生産する為の提携だったりするのでは無いでしょうネーと思ったりもしますが、インラインにも再編の波が押し寄せてきたのかも知れません。
