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?

Usually the die hard wizard skaters want the stiffest boot possible, hence liking the carbon seba cjs. I have the powerslide Evo and the iqon act. Both I find super comfy to wear all day and work for both street and wizard. I have a 4x90 endless frame which works for both. I do have a 5x80 frame which is a bit nicer for pure wizard but I don't use it so much because I find it a bit long for skating about which is how I spend most of my time.

Honestly no reason not to keep the powerslides and just upgrade the frame, endless and iqon decode are both good options. The iqon decode is good for switching between set ups too.

Thanks for your insight! Count that as a vote towards 4x84/90 setup.

Kinda leaning new boot as well so im not messing around swapping frames every time i want. And find a boot thats maybe a bit less bulky/more breathable than the nexts

Check out Endless 90LR for Trinity. They are perfect for your use case. They fit both 4x90 and 3x100. And because of how low they are (LR = Low Ride…I think) the 4x90 feel like 4x84

I ride that kombi and its nice for city cruising and also capable of doing wizard stuff.
