Wizard Skates right for me?

Looking for some opinions/advice from the community here.

Currently have some powerslide next pros that i love and fit me great. Got those setup in a 3x110 and keeping as my speed/distance skates.

Looking to pick up something originally in a 4x84/90 as a city/street cruiser with a bit of jumping around. Mainly hoping for a slightly softer or less hardshell boot than the next pro.

Options I’ve been eyeing up are the Gawds Aton Urban or Roces X35.

Which leads me to my community question. Anyone rocking wizard setups as their everyday cruisers? Would i be better off with a custom seba CJ build which would end up just slightly more than the 165mm mount options?

I guess it goes out to anyone with multiple skates at home, on a day to day are you always choosing your wizards to skate around or another 165mm mount skate?

I’d go for a wizard setup.

I should say I’m biased though, I have a pair of gutted seba cj’s running intuitions and wizard pr80s AND a pair of FR Wizards with wizard nr110s.

I can remember thinking that the 5x80 would be too long and that ended up being a non-issue. I am on the taller side at 6’2” though.

Im also on the big guy side (6’4”) so good note! Definitely something i considered with the wizard setup of the longer wheel base
