skates are great. only problems: soul plate wares out relatively quickly. and, as all carbon fiber skates, whether it be the valo lights the usd carbons or the deshi's, the skates are actually too light. my only problem was i found it too hard to lock onto anything because they're so light that it's more difficult to place your feet where you need. it is, however, something that's kind of easy to get used to. a lot of people who try carbon skates don't go back to other kinds of skates generally.

just wondering what skates you would recommend for a begginer. im talking a maxium price of £150. and what brands are the most reputuable in your opion. i was looking at the Valo JJ.1 skates on your website for £110 but you have sold out of the white colour i liked. Thanks

[ZarexChris]
