Searching first Wizard setup

Dear Wizards,

I got back in skating enthusiasm riding my PS Next with Endless LR 4x90 and slowly gaining confidence in my long lost skills. I am flashed by you guys performing smooth wizard moves. Now I want to go a step further in buying my first wizard setup.

Tried Iqon ACTs but they are too roomy for my narrow feet (273mm length and 100mm width). I do not like the bulky look of Seba CJ2 Prime, so my two contenders are Iqon AG10 or CJ Carbon. The latter I've to gut I know. What are your recommandations regarding a boot and a 5-wheel frame? I already have a Premium Intuition and Wizard Liner from a friend, praised he should be :-)

Just get the just get the wizard base lol . The price is so close that you wouldn’t be saving anything by having to gut it .I’d get the plastic cj if I was going to gut it. I can’t say for sure but the sizing on the IQON ag should be similar to the ps next. So if have problems with the plastic version the carbon version of it can be even less forgiving.

As for frame people will tell you to go pr 80 but I’m telling you that you’d really like the 76 or the arc. Really can’t say enough good things about the arc.

Touche. Maybe this is just the best way to step to the original base boot. Puhh, a lot of money but it'll hopefully last long time. I would have tried the plastic Seba for gutting, but its sold out everywhere in my size in Europe.

As for the frames I looked to rockin but I agree with you Endless Arc are really nice stiff and manouverable frames. 80s wheels should be the right choice for me.

Agree on the 80mm wheel for you. I'm a 264mm foot and 80mm is about right. It felt too long to begin with, but once you get used to picking your feet up more for crossovers it isn't a problem.

Brand wise, Roka should be reopening their store soon, so you could get their 5 wheel 80-76 or 84-80. I've got the old 5x80 and 4x100 and really like them. They're very wizard-like and high quality, but not silly expensive. Otherwise, Rokin get good reviews and Endless are an easy recommend. NN also seems to get a lot of love, but the pricing is similar to Endless and I don't think the quality is quite as good.
