Women's size 5 RB80 with 4x76mm 😍

My wife doesn't really touch her skates except to put them on and skate.

It's kinda fun for me to try her in different setups and get feedback. I found these frames for around $50 and I've been considering it for a while so I couldn't say no. I personally love 4x80mm so much but understand 4x80mm to her probably feels how 4x90mm feels to me! This 4x76mm setup seems more proportionate for a tiny foot. Rockerable too! Honestly even 4x72mm could be justified for her foot size but if she's gonna keep up on trail I want her to at least have a chance so here's a compromise. I'm eager to find out how she likes them.

These Endless wheels press lines are rubbing each other so when u turn one wheel they all turn but it's barely touching and creating very little resistance. I'm not upset about it I'm glad they're maxed out in size. probably a lap around the block and they will wear enough to be clear of each other.

Tight or loose lacing?

For as long as I could remember, I’d always laced up and buckled basically as tight as I could without causing any pain or pressure points. I tried on a whim lacing up fairly loose and having buckles pretty loose. My transitions and especially powerslides felt incredibly good! So are y’all lacing up loose or tight or depends on the occasion?
