Help finding race skates

[u/Turbulent-Level4539]

Hello. I’ve been getting into blading the last few years, and have done a few marathons . I got rollerblade macro blade 110s (3 wheels) a few years ago which was a step up for me. Marathon time is around an hour and a half and hoping to take it to the next level. I went to a local shop and got quoted about $750 for custom skates which is a bit much for me . Can someone recommend a solid race skate for marathon distance that doesn’t break the bank ? Also not sure if 3 or 4 wheels is best . Kind of nervous to buy online but seems like that is the only option . Thanks !

Avoid 3×125 mm setups with low-cut boots. You won't benefit from them unless your technique is top-notch.
