So cool to see us older guys picking inline back up again. I'm 42 and never tried hockey so I'm re-learning how to skate

[@JakobDam]

Me too! I'm 44, and wanted to go roller skating last Sunday... all 3 straps broke on each boot. That plastic had gotten severely damaged... then again, these skates are around 23 years old. When these skates were new, the Nokia 3210 was the latest in mobile phone invention... So now I just ordered a new pair, and I'm pretty sure I need to relearn everything. I was never much of a roller skater, but I could roll around without falling all the time, so there's that...

[@JesusChrist_IsTruth-LoveForALL]

Handle it you guys! 🎉🙌

[@JesusChrist_IsTruth-LoveForALL]

​​@@JakobDamsame thing happened with some of my dad's OLD rollerblades that I tried to revive. The straps and plastics started cracking and breaking, just too old. I picked up some rollerblade zetrablades as a come back starter blade and they are pretty good for the price. Stay away from the big 5 blades. I bought the most expensive ones the rollerderby aero q60 and they still sucked! I knew I should of just went with the rollerblades zetrablades from the start. I'll try another after those.

36 and also getting back now! I guess it's that nostalgia time. Can't wait for spring to come!

[@tabttu]

I'm so glad I found ur channel! I need a little help getting back into skating after a 20+ year break. I started skating standard quads when I was 3-4 yrs old and switched to inline when I was about 8-9. 90% of my skate experience was urban street, and some mild street hockey, with the other 10% simply spent at the local rink. I got married, had kids, and by the time I was in my early 20's, my skates saw very little use. Eventually, I just forgot about it. Now, at the age of 41, I find myself alone, divorced after over 20 years of marriage, with 3 beautiful daughters who are all grown and busy with their own lives... and I'm just here, trying to figure out what the hell happened to the time! It's been at least 10 years since I've used them, but a few weeks ago I was moving some old boxes and came across my old K2's. That was all it took! I've been researching since then, just trying to find the right skates. I was NOT prepared for all the different options. Ur videos have been super helpful tho!

[@kietzi]

here too 😅 i thought my old K2 are good enough, but before i started to buy new wheels, i thought it would be better to invest in better skates. After watching a lot of tutorials, i found out, my skates are too big for me 😅 well it works, but i am looking forward for my Powerslide Next and how they will feel. Maybe i was skating wrong 🤷‍♀

[@damecado7407]

My story is similar: I restarted blading at 40 during covid (used to skate as an early teen, but nothing serious, maybe 2 years). Bought some cheap adjustable length skates from Target, never felt comfortable in them. Then bought some FRXs EU 45. They were decent, but I ultimately found them too big for my feet and I only skated them for 2 months. No maneuverability and the wheel base was way too short. Skating backwards was a calamity, always tipped forward. Skip forward 2 years to present day, decided to get serious. Did a lot of research and purchased the FR1 Deluxe 80s size EU 42 that are the limit of my size 280mm feet. They were super tight at first, but after a few heat molding sessions, they now fit just right. Like rerolling, my intention was always to get the Endless 90s. Decided to get the Endless 90 ES for that "Extra Stability". So after 3 months/15 - 20 hours over a 2 year span, I can finally carve, at least to my left, my right carves and turns are terrible. I have a fear of leaning on my right leg for some reason. Can't even drag stop using the right leg as the glide. I'm currently using a wobbleboard to work on my balance. Anyway, I can also finally do lemons forwards and backwards effortlessly, while with the stock 80s it was a struggle. I'm trying to work on my powerslide, but that transition to backwards frightens me. My fear of falling at 42 yo is REAL.😅 In summary, I do recommend the Endless 90s to even a beginner blader. Here's my current setup. FR1 Deluxe 80 Endless 90 ES Rollerblade Hydrogen 90mm Wheels Twincam MW9 Bearings

[@damecado7407]

Two week update. I can now carve to my right and perform mini powerstops to my left. No powerslide yet, but my one leg balance is improving and I'm comfortable street skating. Did 5 miles the other day.

Dude same here! I used to skate everyday from middle school to high school, got pretty good at it too. Stop skating life happened, and Covid changed all that. Picked up skates during Covid at age 37, but went straight for the aggressive inlines cuz I always wanted a pair in high school. Skating is just so fun and freeing.

Dude love this. I use to skate around 10-13 and fell off when I moved I'm 34 and just starting to glide again this has been very useful cause I've been outta the game a bit, thanks. Also seeing your progress getting back to it has giving me way more confidence.

[@BigGirthyJohnson]

I loved this video man. I loved hearing about your experience with different setups. Ive only had 3 different pairs my whole life (I'm 31). My current pair is the K2 Trio 3x110. They are pretty comfy, which is important to me. Im looking to buy a new pair and this video helped me gain some insight into my options. You've used all sorts of stuff. Thanks man. Be safe out there. Also bonus tip to whoever reads this. Wear impact resistant gloves, its a must if you ask me. They allow you to use your hands in all sorts of ways and grab onto your environment like poles and rails without fear of jacking your hands up. Your hands are very important. Plus IF you fall its always nice to reduce the impact.

[@cyy3793]

Used to skate on quad skates in the 1970s, and stopped when i turned 13 as i had to go to a boarding school. Now i am 59, and returned to skating last year. I've graduated from quads to inline skates, and am now on 4x80mm. Planning to upgrade to 4x100mm soon for urban skating as i feel larger wheels are safer on uneven ground.

[@Cheezmonka]

Larger wheels can be less stable and harder to stop on due to increased height off of the ground and increased rolling speed compared to smaller wheels, so just keep those things in mind when you start using larger wheels.

[@Jay-uh6qn]

Thanks so much for this concise overview ❤. My journey is very similar to yours (including Bill's early PintoPony material, Bauer HiLo, etc). I've been deliberating over the endless 90s and will try this now after watching your clip. Greetings from London..!!

[@DriveCarToBar]

My son just went to a birthday party at a skating rink. I spent a bunch of time there wishing I had brought mine. So we got home, I fished my old Salomons out of a box and old (42) fat me did a few laps around the block with my son in awe that I was so good. 😂 I'm nowhere near as good as I was in the 90s but it felt great. I can't remember why I stopped. I'm going to be buying a modern pair and working off this gut that's seemingly shown up.

[@Brisasfrias2]

Thanks for the review on all set ups. I was one of those viewers that was really questioning me to determine whether getting the endless 90 or arc 165 frame, and since I will be just starting back on skates decided yesterday to pull the trigger and get the endless 90 es frames...due to my boot size 45 and based on endlessblading's recommendation..awesome video by the way

I currently have the NN 4x90 on the FR Spin boot. and have used them for a few years now. I'm looking to get new frames. This review helps, although now I'm torn between upgrading to the Endless 4x90 or the Endless Arc frames. Too many choices, so little time. :) But thanks for this great review.

[@PopyMartins]

Nice to see your road to Carbon Skates! I have a PS Arise (would be the Powerslide model that matches the FR SL) and I it was simply impossible for me to do any kind of wizard skating due to the boot being so rigid. I paired it with the IQON Decode 110s. Now I kept the boot, switched the frame for a 3x125, long frame for speed skating and this is my marathon/race setup. For wizard I got the UFR paired with the IQON Decode 100, so much better. They feel like slippers. Also next time trying a new frame I suggest you to try the Decode series. I felt in love with them the same way you did with the Endless. Top notch quality and they also have the added bonus of having 3 or more different setups for each frame.

[@deltafour1212]

This video is a godsend! Because of this video, it finally helped me decide which skate to get.

[@danknoize]

Really appreciate hearing your thoughts along your "setup journey". Great job keeping the bias to a minimum too. I find myself really interested in the Endless frames as my first skates had an adjustable rocker setup (some Roces agressive skates from '95 if memory is serving me right) and I really loved the agility of them. Also just bought my first pair in ... 15 years?!? the K2 VO2 90 with the single sided frame which I really like. Makes changing wheels so fast and easy. Been a long time but I am not noticing and lack of stability or stiffness from them. Of course after that I started looking into where skating currently is and discovered the Endless/Wizard world and now I'm gonna have to get some boots I can add a frame to. Which is where this video perfectly fits. I have heard others say similar things about Ninjas vs Endless 90s btw 🤷🏻‍♂ Thanks again! And Enjoy Phili! Miss it I do. Germany sucks for skating 🤦🏻‍♂ cobblestones of death everywhere 😆

As a beginner at age 37. I started with 80mm last summer, but needed an upgrade quick. Couldn't decide between 90's or 100's, so got these mixed from Rockin'. Foot/boot size 43EU. I love'm. My friend keeps switching between 100's, 110's, and 90's for our regular town runs and is now seeing which one he prefers..so i think i made a good 'all around/hybrid' build, for a beginner at least.

That's some skate setup adventure you've been on. I enjoy switching from the smaller to bigger wheel setup, too, that my Stay Low frame offers. My next setup will probably be the High/Low setup that I haven't tried before but would like to just for fun and something different. It's great how there is such a wide range of skate setups available for different styles of skating that you can choose from. Just keep rolling out there, and by the way, I think Bill went with the new Cross🔥🔥 skates it'll be interesting what he thinks of them.

[@rerollinginline]

Oh yeah the variety of equipment and diversity of skills/disciplines is one of the amazing and unique things about skating. I saw that Bill went with the Crossfire (I'm finally on Instagram). I just had my 3rd roll in mine today. Still breaking them in!

[@JoeyCups]

Very nice video, super cool to hear your thought process between each setup! I know it's hard to say for each individual and to think like a beginner, but I have been learning and still working on the very basics, but I think my 243mm frame is a bit short for my size 12/47 boot. I know I'll go with an ES frame but do you think it would be detrimental to learn the basics on the 5 wheel Arc as opposed to the 4x90? I guess the goal is to do most urban-ish skating, just on the streets in my little suburb, but I wouldn't mind eventually learning swively stuff one day, I just think that's pretty far in the future so learning basics is the priority for now.

[@Deliverygirl]

I used to have carbon boots when I played hockey, when I got back into rollerblading I bought a plastic shell boot (Rollerblade Twister), they were nice but my next skate was a carbon shell again, and the other two pairs I bought since were also carbon skates. I would say they are better, and if you skate a lot every day they are totally worth it, once broken in, laced up and well adjusted they feel like an extension of your body. Going back to plastic shells I feel like the power transfer is much lower, it feels mushy and soft.

[@rerollinginline]

Agreed that there's nothing like a well-fitting carbon boot that just just gives your foot a hug when you step into them. I'm fortunate with how my SL fit, because as you said once broken in they're more comfortable (if they fit properly!). And yeah, that power transfer difference is night-and-day. I sometimes miss the shock absorption of my urban boots though, especially landing jumps. But as I said in the video, I'm sold on a carbon boot with integrated liner. I'm still curious about a carbon boot with a liner, like the wizards though. I want to try everything! Thanks for stopping by and the comment :)

[@Deliverygirl]

@@rerollinginline The SL is also my current street skate, paired with a 3x125 267mm frame. I do use Superfeet carbon insoles that do a pretty good job at shock absorbing in the heel. I think in the future to try and gut these SLs once they are really worn down and stuff an Intuition liner in there. Love the videos, keep it up.

[@jmin1029]

Great videos and explanations as always. I just got back into skating at 38 as well. I don't know why I ever stopped. Rocking the k2 fit 90 at moment, now that the balance and muscle memory is back. I know I want the endless 90 for more aggressive speed. Just being indecisive on picking a hard boot.

[@rerollinginline]

Welcome back! The only thing I don't like about skating is that I stopped doing it for 22 years. But I'm having an absolute blast now. Never saw myself starting a KZbin channel either... but here we are, lol. Happy skating and good luck finding your next skate!

[@philoki]

Your Soul Slides look dope as alwasy! I'm planning to get the FR SL Speed (lower ankle cuff, more freedom of movement) + the Sago 5 Pro Frame, which is essentially a Wizard Advanced Frame for only 200$ that fits the 165 mounting system. Have you heard of them? They have 100mm wheels in the front and back, which helps with shock absorption on rough terrain and toe/heel flatland tricks due to increased stability

[@rerollinginline]

Thanks! Those SL Speed boots look awesome. I’d love to know what that integrated Intuition liner is like. I went with the normal SL to have more support, but I’d love to know what the speed feel like. Yeah I’ve seen those frames. They’re the orange wheel ones, lol. Doesn’t look like something I’d try unless I got more into Wizard skating and wanted to experiment more. I have the Arc, which are great for my needs.

[@DavidKirtley]

I don't feel so bad now about my anal outlook on frames and wheels. I am starting back on my skates at 64. I pulled out my old Solomon FSKs and they crumbled in my hands. I got a pair of the FR UFR skate boots that use UFS frames since I already had the frames from my old skates that I liked. 4x80 FSK frames extended to 320mm from Solomon. I also picked up a pair of the K2 Uptown skates. I bought a second pair of the FRX skates that use the stepped frame so I could use my other frames. I have a 5x80 setup and a 3x100+1x90 setup (from back when the big wheels first came out to fit 165mm spacing). Slowly getting back into it since I am an old fart and out of shape. Working my way back up to longer sessions.

[@JoshuaBmusic]

I watched your entire video, I appreciate all of the incredible information and footage you included! From what I understand, for trail/suburban focused skating, you suggest the Endless 90 frame 3x110 on F1I/FR SL? My girlfriend and I want to get into rollerblading & would be mainly skating on a trail/sidewalks. I'm so eager to buy our skates but I want to make sure we avoid any intro mistakes. Thank you!!

[@BladeRunner-PFK]

Have your tried the Adapt Hi-Lo at 90-90-84-84 frames? Also their new carbon boots look a lot better than Carbon FR skates. As you've mentioned FR skates are too tight with many straps and long around the ankles. I am still waiting for my Adpat SuperLeggera boots to be made but when you look at the design in their YT videos, they are not only free around the ankles and low but also has a very good forward bend and looks like glove fitting, similar to Missoin Hockey skates. They are also leaps and bounds to the hockeys skates you show on this video. Perhaps another option to try ;-)

[@MasonAveKid437]

Hell yeah, what up Philly! Currently only have hi-lo 76/80 bauer/mission hockey skates. Looking for a more something that feels a bit smoother on Philly's less smooth surfaces. Is there a big difference between the 90's and 100's as far as that goes?

[@BretMiller]

thank you for making this video! it's very helpful for me in deciding which skate configuration to try. i'm thinking of going with a 4x90mm setup. curious, have you experimented with different bearings? i use bones swiss ceramic bearings in all of my skateboard cruiser builds. i'm thinking of trying them in a 4x90mm inline skate build but it's an expensive upgrade since there are twice as many wheels in an inline skate as in a skateboard.

[@Qbukekw]

Hi there 🙂 I am loving this work of yours as I loved all the other videos I watched on your channel. Keep it up! I am debating between the endless 90 and the 100. I do very very similar skating to yours (even though way less advanced), so one might think the 90's might be perfect. My feet are bigger than yours (270 mm) though and you mentioned, that you really wanted the frame to be longer than your feet. How much longer do you think is advisable? The 90 is 11mm longer with your feet, with mine it would be 6mm longer. Your estimation would mean a lot to me and I of course am very well aware, that it can only be an estimation 🙂 Cheers!

[@rerollinginline]

What frames are you using currently and what do you have experience with? Also… to help complicate things, Endless offers the “Endless 90 ES” (Enhanced Stability) that’s 291mm wheelbase, so in between the standard Endless 90 (276mm) and Endless 100(303mm)

[@Qbukekw]

​@@rerollinginline Yeah, the ES version really doesn't make the decisionmaking easier ^^ Thank you for your answer, really appreciate it! Sry for the wall of text in advance: Don't worry in case you can't find the time to read it and answer to the initial question (rather buy endless 90 or 100?), it would be infinitely comprehensible. You know.... I am hooked with your stuff already anyways and there is not really such a thing that could change that right now ;D I am using the stock frames that came with my Rollerblade Cruisers (flat 4x 80). I got them one year ago and I like them so far, though I haven't experienced anything else yet. They were my first skates since I skated as a kid. I never learned it properly back then. Today I love using my skates to make the city my playground. Therefore I have to learn it properly: My most recent accomplishment has been getting very confident with my powerslides. After mastering it on my weaker side too, my next step will be getting better at the soul slide, I loved your tutorial on that one! I also like doing little jumps and in general being very playful; at least as far as my skilllevel allows. A friend of mine has been teaching me some little dance moves recently. Getting better at that is not at all an A-goal, but I like playing around with it. Yes, I like using my skates for going from A to B, but I don't feel the urge to cover the distance very very quickly. Often thats actually not really possible in the citycenter anyways. I am much rather looking out for fun little sequences to play with in between my journey. I think this describes where I am at with the stock 4x 80 rollerblade cruiser frames right now... Again, sry for the wall of text! 😁😅

[@GameConnoisseur69]

Wizard frames on a Carbon freeride/slalom boot looks like an absolute dream gotta try out the endless 90s

[@rerollinginline]

Can't go wrong with Endless 90s. What do you typically skate?

[@GameConnoisseur69]

I'm currently on the FR rockered 4X80 frame, looking for something with more stability and better on rougher pavement. I'm a fan of the playfulness and swivelyness of an 80mm slalom frame so Im lead to believe I wouldn't enjoy the 100 as much

[@MaximDybarskiy]

I am 36 and I have started a year ago. This is so much fun!

[@chrisogrady28]

Thank you for mentioning your foot size, I've got sice 47 feet and really struggle with frames being so short and unstable. My current setup is a 3x100 and the wheelbase is only about 236mm

[@rerollinginline]

Oof. Yeah, that sounds rough. Are they Powerslides? Have you tried a longer frame?

[@chrisogrady28]

@@rerollinginline yeah powerslide swell, just checked it's actually 231mm, jave it all the way back but still easy to fall back on when jumping. The boots are also too narrow for my feet really so want to put together a new pair like maybe RB crossfire with endless 100

[@nicoboulanger9805]

I got the endless 100s under my size 47 feet. Love them! I also had a problem with the way to short stock frames. Going to try 5 wheel frames next out-of curiosity.

[@Drunken_Hamster]

What wheel count/size would you rec for urban skating x freestyle slalom (those dancy shuffle/moonwalk moves) without losing the ability to do the wizard 3-shape moves and without being too fast (or not acceleratable enough) for a roller rink? My foot size is 28.5-29cm (space included) and 11cm wide. Also, what do you think a 329mm wheelbase 90-84-80-76-72 frame with an Endless style rocker might feel like? Just as a hypothetical "evolution" or modification to the Arc frames to perhaps make them more like hockey frames.

[@Geelani333]

At one point you mention a certain setup feeling “sticky” is there a setup that you find that quality not as prevalent in? I’ve got all 80s on old hockey skates I had and I’m battling that issue.

[@Martz604]

Great video and thanks for your thoughts on all these setups! I do think the 90mm frames offer the best versatility between cruising speed and acceleration. I have the Endless 90 on my FR1 and the NR100 for the Seba Wizard combo and usually always feel more agile on the FR1. I hope to get the new Rollerblade Crossfire carbon skate for some more slalom-y kind of stuff on a rockered 80mm setup.

[@rerollinginline]

Thanks! Yeah and of course everyone will be different, which is one of the cool things about skating. There's a diversity in skating that's pretty unique vs a lot of other sports/activities. I'd love to try a wizard skate at some point. But yeah, the 90s make me feel like "a stable ninja", essentially.

[@photomorti]

I thought my seba high light carbon pro + endless 100 frame was the best i ever had untill i got a Seba CJ prime with intuition premium liner and Wizard NR100 frame and its just next level atleast from my experience. They are a bit heavier but the support and precision you get from this combination is insane i feel super confident in these skates. I hope i can get my hands on a full carbon wizard boot for the future to really go next level :D

[@rerollinginline]

Wizard skates are certainly on my list of stuff I want to try! I've almost bought them a few times, but haven't pulled the trigger yet. Maybe one day...

[@janar7507]

hey man, you use a gutted shell + liner? or use the same size like Seba Us6 + liner us6?

[@photomorti]

@@janar7507 If you talking about me no i use the normal non gutted Seba cj 2 primes with a removable liner. If wizard skates comes out with a new carbon boot im going to get that one probably to really get the most high end setup possible.

[@janar7507]

@@photomorti thank you man! Is so weird found a good size. I practice ice skating in inline. And ordered a cj 2 prime 7 and a 6/6.5 intuition. Hope it fit good 🥹

[@photomorti]

@@janar7507 I could probably go 1 size lower but i installed some 45 degree angle buckles instead of the normal strap and now i get basicly no heel lift. So i dont really see a reason to downsize at this point im very happy with the fit and i can easily skate them for 2 hours without pain. The very hard liner tongue did take some time to get used to at first , i kept getting shin pain from the pressure but that goes away. I love really stiff hard tongues , gives me so much control.

[@xytroncore]

Nice video dude. I’ve been looking to get into skating myself, but finding skates in stock is becoming a real PITA. I dunno if it’s a seasonal thing or what

[@MrStrikemasterice]

"Rent frames before you buy them" - Wish i'd heard this advice earlier lol. These blisters on the inside arch of my foot want to kill me

[@breandanholmes1]

Cool mask, did it help with protection from falling?

[@intro-sc1ut]

Hello, Im looking to upgrade to the FR SL's with endless 90's as well. How come you didn't go with the speeds? Also, my foot size is 12 US, would you recommended going with the endless 90 ES frames or would I be ok with regular 90 frames. Thanks, enjoy your videos and insight.

[@jacek5587]

what time do you skate at? so empty streets...

[@nigelbrown2274]

very interesting, thanks for the upload!

[@rerollinginline]

Thanks for the comment!

[@rollingdubaiguy6415]

I've been finding the same thing with my Carbon Flying Eagle Drifts. They feel so good for slalom (I'm a very basic slalom skater) and when I put a big wheel frame on them (rockin' mix 100/90) they feel amazing for control but man do they hurt my toes when jumping and landing. I'm not sure what to do. Keep them as a slalom-only skate or keep the big wheel frame on them but limit (or eliminate) jumping while skating them. Great video of your skate set-up journey!

[@rerollinginline]

I’ve adjusted how I land jumps in these skates and I just land with my feet more flat. Of course you have to be careful not to put too much weight backwards and fall or slip out. I do the same when rolling rough terrain, which also rattle my toes if my weight is forward. I shift my weight ever so slightly back off my toes and it makes a big difference.

[@rollingdubaiguy6415]

@@rerollinginline Thanks. I have also tried to adjust how I land from jumps when using my carbon skates by bending my legs more. Its a better way to absorb shock anyway! But my carbon skates are very tight. I'm thinking Rollerblade Crossfire are going to be a good option for me based on the reviews I am seeing.

[@Cheezmonka]

I would love to get 90mm frames and wheels but where I live there are just SO MANY HILLS that I'm sticking with 80mm while I learn and build skills.

[@dpadboy1666]

Man what do you use to record yourself while skating? It looks so awesome!

[@thuando6556]

Thank you man!! I listen to you during fortnite to help me 😁

[@christianhattens1150]

Such a nice video!

[@sinasho6530]

Hi guys . I am 32 and I haven’t skate for over a decade ( I was semi beginner ) … then I lost interest and I want to skate again for fun . In dubai all the roads are very flat and clean so no bumpy roads . Cam u tell me which skate I should go for ? I am a bit over weight as well so I’m thinking going for soft boots for better comfort . Appreciate your answer

[@rodrigoaraujo7323]

Try some Powerslide with trinity mounting

[@santiagor486]

So you’re just gonna drop the best inline skating setups video there is out there and pretend like it is just another video? This video was amazing. Love all the setups you have had, great style. Have you thought about trying Iqon frames?

[@sultanabran1]

this is funny. i'm 43 and i'm getting back onto inline skates after not touching skates since 1998. i played roller hockey every week for years in high school.

[@NoQualmsTheArtist]

Thanks for this video. I'm in a similar situation, getting back into skating after decades. How do you make your GoPro stick disappear?

[@gameloozer731]

I bought my first pair a year ago. I wear a size 12.5US so on 80mm wheels the boot extends far past the wheels. I just ordered the FR1 90’s and I’m hoping that will add some stability.

[@sdlmpo109]

Really good insight! For US 11 size do you think endless 90 or 100 is best? For a mix of wizard, cruise and some jumps

[@danielames3937]

What roller skates would you recommend for someone who lives in a small country town with rough/bumpy chip and tar rodes? I prefer speed first, then comfort. When I say comfort, I mean less vibration. These skates will just be used to go up and down roads and sidewalks; no tricks or anything. Please give me a middle of the rode price for first recommendation and a budget recommendation. If it's the same model for both that's fine too. Thank you.

[@freshasadaisy4782]

A really good, entertaining piece of inline skating video and storytelling. 👌 Thanks a lot for this. I've been stuck with the FR1 and FR2 for years and I'm thirsty for change. I hope at some point I can make the leap to a well-fitting carbon skate. I hesitate because heat molding doesn't help with a narrow foot. As soon as you use ankle booties, the advantage of a glued-in liner is gone imo.

[@rerollinginline]

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it! Yeah I think that "well-fitting" qualifier you used is an important one for carbon, especially considering the price and availability for some folks, or inability to exchange sizes etc. I'm fortunate with how my SL fit. Though I still don't see why everyone says FR's fit wide. My medium feet have been happy in them. And I'm still exploring of course, which is one of the reasons I picked up the Rollerblade Crossfire. I'm holding off talking much about the Crossfire until I've at least broken them in. I wish I could try everything, lol.

[@ryakuss1987]

Looking at getting my first set of actual nice skates, great video! Always have ridden a hard shell and a little nervous about the SL Thinking go with the FR1 intuition. My foots 267 mm long 110 wide, can you recommend size? Think you said you're 265? Thanks!
