Was the Matrix Legacy also 9.75? Also, is the drag pick on 99 aligned with the end of the toe plate?

Great question from @KP-zd3hc related to the drag pick positioning!!! I believe Matrix Legacy was 9.5". I have recorded these videos 2021, so it´s hard to remember or find evidences of these specific Matrix blades size, when I have several hundreds of pictures from the skate blades. Drack pick position compared to the end of toe plate is not same in Matrix and Pattern 99. Pattern 99 drag pick seems to be more further than in Matrix, even video gives opposite impression. You are the first person ever whom has asked me about the drack pick positioning compared to the toe plate end. I really appreciate this. Most likely you do have also understanding why some blades are mounted 3-5 mm backwards from the shoe tip, like I did show in one of my videos. I have documented these specific blades drack pick position differences very clearly 2021 , but it seems I have forgot to include that picture in to this video. Alternatively I have chosen not to publish that information in that time. As said, it´s hard to remember everything so clearly after 3 years. But as I said earlier, I do have nice photo where these blades drack pick positions are compered with two different ways.

@@Annisk8s thank you so much. :) I asked because I was forced to go down a blade length due to using Risport boots that require a smaller blade. I use the Legacy blades because my feet are so used to 8’rockers, but I am so annoyed that the drag pick is now so much closer. I’m looking into the Pattern 99 now, thank you!

@KP-zd3hc Are you sure you will get 8´ rocker when you buy P99 blades? I would not. JW seems to have couple manual grinding phases in their manufacturing process and this leads to changes in their profiles. However you mentioned that drag pick positioning is now the main pain point. I will try to find some way to show you the difference your are interested.
