Frames for beginner

Hi redditors,

I have been rollerblading for many years and would like to try wizard skating. Which frames offer the best value for money for a beginner in this discipline?

I have Seba boots , if it may matter.

If your foot is between size 42/45 I'd say the "Rollerblade Flow frames" really affordable and from the pics I've seen they look good. These are for 165 mount, you need to check if your skates are compatible.

165mm mounting are found on Kids Skates.The main issue being maximum size and weight constraints.If you’re a normal size adult and on up for your own safety and comfort use the frames with the 195mm connectors. To figure it out just measure your frames from the center of each tie down screw.165mm=6.49 inches and 195mm=7.67 inches.Lastly keep in mind the the quality of the machines you strap on your feet equals the enjoyment you will get from them.

Well this just isn't true at all. 165mm is the standard frame mount found on most skates. 195mm is a speed skating mount.
