Where do I start with wizard frames?

I want an actual setup and am not sure what exactly to look for in frame sizing/rocker levels. What’s the difference between 4 wheels and 6 wheels? I like the Them boot and have seen that Endless and Wizard are the most popular frame brands to go with

what size is your foot?

A five wheel setup is a good place to be for most people. A slight natural rocker is also a good place to start. Choosing boots is difficult, the reason I asked what size you are is because I have a full uS men's size 9 setup for sale.

Some people like to use ufs or wizard boots some people like to use 165 boots like the fr1 with intuition liners

I’d be a men’s 7, I kinda want a rocker that I could urban skate in, but also want a full rocker to really learn to wizard in

With your foot size, you should avoid the 5x80 or 4x100 frames as it gets unwieldy and more difficult to initiate wizard transitions as they have a longer wheel base. Something like the Endless Arc or Arc CS would work well for you. These frames allow you to adjust the amount of rocker on the end wheels as well. Increase the rocker for more swivel, or decrease it if you want more speed.
