DO YOU LIKE YOUR PLATE?

Yep!…Perfect timing, to watch your very-informative video! For the last few weeks, I have been obsessing “how to properly upgrade, from my entry-level Riedell Lolly Roller Skates.” This is a daunting task and I am enjoying my journey!🙌 I began indoor-rink wood quad roller skating, in mid-September of 2022; and already changed out the wheels (68a to 98a) and cushions-both made a difference!🌟 So, I plan to take your advise, prior to buying a new Powerdyne plate. My skates came with the entry level Powerdyne plate and I may just start by changing the plate on the Riedell Lolly (135) Boot, to the one in your video. Thank you.🌻

Ive just changed styles and that means im changing set up knowing my derby set up ia not quite built for ramp and bowl skateing so im going to be buying a new set of skates that is built for it eventually. Now the one thing ive come across is the angel of the kingpins on the trucks being so varied. Ive moved away from softer broader wheels that where my derby wheels to a harder deromiter that is smaller and has a bevile on the edge and that has changed the game in my progression already and slapped on some grind blocks to get me through but im feeling that my more flatter skate is still holding me back so im looking for skates with a bit of a heel for more agility but the axles are worlds apart from plate /brand to plate/ brand and ive looked at the moxies that every review on line tends to be sponsered by and i dont belive the hype as the axles king pin is like straight up and down ? Could you offer some advice to what angle plates are better for the diffent disciplines as ive got 20 degrees on my now venus crazy skates plates with a DBX8 boot that ive been running for about 7 years now but i dont want to be spending big on new plates for the new skakes to find that they are the wrong dog for the wrong job for the agilty needed to do180s in agressive ramp skating while im up a wall.... lol Im willing to spend if i know im getting what ive paid for though. There are no professional skate shops where i live , the local skate rinks " pro shop" is more centered on inlines and ill have to order on line to get anything from them anyways?? As im the only quad skater that ive ever seen at our local skate park, i have no one to ask and no one from derby out my way are big on this technical stuff as most are all about the moxies but their running impalars ?? If you can suggest plates from a Aussie skate company like the bont , crazy skate (ive got now) or chuffed, id like that but i aware that im going to have to get some imported gear as everything is made overseas anyways and thats fine too. I just like to support Aussie businesses as a first choice. Ive tried to talk gear with the guys on skate boards at the skate ramps but they get all blank faced when i ask them about skate trucks so im not sure that much thought goes in to that for them and the knowledge is not transferable. Wheels are but quads are a diffent beast to a board and im finding derby skates are wrong beasts for the bowl.

I noticed that your preferred plate line appears to be about 7 or 8mm inboard of the Snyder mark at the front of the boot, but is straight on the traditional centerline at the heel. I used to set my quads up that way back in the 1980's and 90's, but it was because I accidentally goofed when doing my first ever boot upgrade and just got used to it, so I made a point of trying to emulate that setup from then on. In fact, the set that I first "goofed up" were offset by more than that, but on my next skates, I tried to go back to the traditional centerline and was no longer able to skate in them that way, so I found a compromise..about 7mm at the front axle. What about that position do you prefer? Does it improve ease of high speed cornering? It did for me. Do you feel a stronger push? or is it something else?
