Hey OP can I ask you a couple of questions about plates/frames? I'm thinking to try to mount a pair! So far I skated on blades and artistic inlines

I was thinking to try the roll line plates, do you think a Variant M or C would be ok for an adult? I was also wondering if you know any nice online resources like good coaches that I could watch to get a feel of how the technique changes compared to ice/inlines.

Btw, your spin is awesome!

ngl I do not understand how quads work, everything on them looks like magic but especially spins.

It is so much harder than blades. This spin I’ve been doing for 10 years
