@@Feg1989 it's a lovely plate but with a 10 degree kingpin. I'd say a higher angle makes the turns easier, though it can feel hard to control at first.☺️
I have 2 comfortable boots (Chaya and Riedell 111) skating on roll-line ice wheels. I want to upgrade my Riedell plates to Atom Pilot falcon. I do most of my skating inside the rink on wood floors (USA) Would you recommend this plate? Thnaks
One of my favourite plates. My opinion is it's an unsung hero as it is 16 degree so offers a nice transition to plates that are more responsive, but it's not too high an angle that you feel a bit uncontrolled. The Chaya skate ? Depending on the boot may already have a 20 degree kingpin plate though. I use one size shorter for all my plate mounts and love it . Whatever you decide, hope you enjoy x
You said the wheels you're using are super soft? But the colour for super soft online says lilac. Arent these blue? Really interested in putting these on my arius plate. Thanks x
Great question! The blue Komplex wheels on the Arius plate have been Rit dyed as I had them a long time and they just looked a bit grubby! They were originally Lilac 88A, which in the Komplex Ghibli range is considered super soft. The exact same wheels but in much newer condition are on the DANZA plate x
Thank you for this!!! Just what I needed… demystifying the world of plates!
Love this video!
Is the reactor neo good for agility/dance skating? Easy quick turns?

Thanks for your input. My Chaya is a boot skate it’s the Chaya Melrose crimson Red.
