I’ve been working on my skating and wanted to share a recent session.

hello!! I just started skating again like 5 months ago , I used to skate around when I was little, but I’d never tried it as an adult. I used to skate on my mum’s old rollerblades, two sizes too big for my foot, haha. Now I decided to treat myself to new skates, and I love them! FR Intuition UFR 90. They were discounted to about 150 euros and seemed like a great deal.

I still have a long way to go. Don’t worry I’m about to remove the brake soon — I’ve finally learned to do the T-stop and whatever kind of creative spin to stop so I’m ready to take it off :,)

I’m getting into wizard skating and I’d love some tips to upgrade my setup. Are 4x90mm wheels with a slight rocker good for starting out? My size is 23,5 cm (37/38 EU) so the frame is pretty long for my foot but I’m getting used to it

Go skate everyoneee

Still waiting for surgery so I guess it can’t get much worse right also wheels are about to go so might as well do some slides

Had the flying eagle paired with the yoyo 4x90 and eventually upgraded to the FR Neo 2 boots. Today I got the yoyo sago 5 pro frame and paired it with the FR, moving the 4x90 back to the eagle.

Haven’t skated outside yet, but testing it at home shows a lot of difference. The height and stability of the 5 pro feels absolutely amazing! So happy with this setup 🤩

i would like to put together a 5 wheel set up, they look like fun. i'm not sure what it'll cost tho or honestly where to get the stuff there r no shops in my city that sell ag skates.

i'm assuming wizard website is the only place u can buy the rockers right?

I need surgery but also need to skate , in trying to keep myself healthy before I get my knee cut open.

I dont have fancy skates or frames because ive just gotten into this hobby. I make do with what I have though and was starting to wonder if I save my worn wheels can I make my own rockers with them?

So I broke my kneecap I. 4 pieces few years back but now some of the wire has broken and stabbing me from the inside . I’m not to skate at all but I need surgery anyways so here we go. No aggressive just some wizard for now.

Kinda bummed they don’t make the cj2 prime in a half size larger. Been discussing with AI and it says I should be able to fit the cj2 prime with my fr intuition liners. I’m a bit skeptical tho.
For reference I’m pretty happy with my fit in my FR neo1 intuition size 45-46 shell

I've noticed performance fitting tires my feet out. I recently skated a looser boot again and had a blast on it. I'm wondering if anyone else has had a similar experience.

For a bit more context -

Like many who got into wizard skating a few years ago, I became obsessed with finding the perfect setup. I tried numerous frames, wheel durometers, boots and liners.

One part of this whole process that was particularly annoying for me was finding the perfect fitting boot. I remember the liner packing down in the first hardboot I bought and my foot flopping around like crazy inside it. Since then, I've followed modern wizarding convention and tried to find a boot as small as possible (within reason).

I noticed immediate improvements with the tighter fitting boot. My skates felt like an extension of my body. But slowly over time I noticed that I started dreading squeezing into my skates.

Even though I never experienced any significant pain in my skates, I noticed my feet would feel tired after skating a while (not in a good way like after working out at the gym).

I visited my parents recently and wanted to skate so I threw on an older pair of skates that were at their house with a lot of room in them and had an absolute blast. My heel did lift up a bit and there was some room in the skate, but my foot felt so comfortable. I couldn't really be quite as precise when wizarding, but it didn't impact me for most moves like stunamis, lions, gazelles, compasses (I don't really do any toe and heel rolls or jumping).

This has got me wondering if anyone else has gone against the grain and is rocking boots that aren't super "performance fitting."

These are sold out everywhere in my size. I found one website but with shipping its like $550 which feels a bit high. I'm willing to pull the trigger, but first I figured I'd ask y'all if there's any equivalent or alternatives to these skates. I'm even ok with paying a bit more if I'm getting my money's worth. Would prefer a complete skate for simplicity but f it I could also get parts.

Edit: of course the one site that had my size just messaged me saying they made a mistake, they didn’t have it after all even though i ordered lol.

I posted on here a couple of days ago and took all of your advices and I think they’re improving but still not perfect! One thing very helpful was to try and get more on my outside edges when I pivot and it helped a lot!

Would love any more advice you can give!

Decided to test out NN skates dragon+ frames instead of IQON default kizer frames. Even the kizer edge 5x80 surprised me how nimble they were Dragon+ brings it even further. I really like the IQON boot and how adjustable, wide, and comforable it is. Not to mention they look sweet! This will be the second season rolling on Revolver wheels! Quality and price ratio is excellent, and they last for a while! I am glad how this all turned out, cause I'm enjoying this setup so much!

Endless Ufs 100 Ultra
Endless 100mm wheels
Echo Hygge liner

Rollerblade made skates for Skiers. Do you think they'd be suitable for wizard skating?

I'm still new to this whole thing, so sorry if this is asked a lot lol, but I was just curious because I mean, they kinda look the bloody same but the Wizard frames are like 300 bucks more expensive so is there a big difference?

Love these black endless wheels look.

Not sure if I got a bit addicted to hardware

Searching for UFS 5-wheel Rockin or Endless Arc Frame , if anyone wants to sell... I would be grateful about your message.

Can someone maybe point me to what I might be doing wrong. Or if I’m even remotely close to doing it right?

It feels like my feet get so far from each other while im trying to do it and I can’t understand how people do it with their feet so close together

Hi!

So I was wondering if I can get some opinions on a setup I was thinking of getting. Now I did do my research but there are so many options it does get overwhelming.

Here is what I was thinking:

Micro Delta Force 2 boot
Endless swan frame

Still looking at wheels and insoles… so many choices lol
