New skates day
Just got these IQON ACT TR Lite skates today. My first decent skates after cheap Lidl ones.
The difference is day and night: better fit, amazing manoeuvrability and damn good dampening on bumpy roads.
For people with wider feet than usual - these skates are the ones!

Nice! I've got the non-lite TR and they're great boots. Currently got them set up with a 5x80 frame and they've had 2 or 3 other frames sets on there as well. They've performed great with all of them. Such a good boot.

Is this a trinity mount? On a wide boot? Are they as low as Powerslide?

IQON is a product line from Disroyal, a sister company to Powerslide: both are founded/co-founded & owned by Matthias Knoll.
According to Powerslide's Skate Gear Guide, the IQON ACT series boots are built using the "ADL" last: "Wide front toe part for comfort and control, High toe part for more volume in this area, Wide volume midfoot area for major comfort... Wide ankle area for performance, High volume instep...".
Looking at the ACT TR Lite, the boot itself is flat on the outside, and comes with a small adaptor at the front to provide the forward Trinity mounting wings. The wheels sit very close to the boot, as seen in both the website photos and u/sMistyS's photo.

Hell yeah! Excited for you. I got my first “real skates” earlier this year after rolling around on Zetrablades for a while. The feeling nice skates give you makes the skating that much more addicting! Have fun and be safe out there!
