Hey guys, Im pretty young and small, about size 6-7 US and I started blading last year. My shit blades held me back alot cuz of the no grinding and shit so this year im getting some real skates. I wanna know what kind are the best and price is a big issue. I was leaning towards the Salomon ST 80s I believe. They seem to be relatively cheap, good size and I know salomon usually hs a good rep with most sports although I dont know if the quality is good. ANyone have any suggestions?

^ yeah same question, They say on their site that you can upgrade to the Soul Frame system. What is that? and do you need it?

soul frame system- its a larger size soul that was used on skates such as: elliots, creams, cream 2, shima 1-4, and several other skates. dont bother to get soul 2/3ks, cause after you upgrade to soul frame system, u gotta spend more $ to upgrade to ufs. ufs is the universal frame system. its a new system which now allowes all ufs compatible sk8s and frames (pretty much all of em) to be interchanged at will


Skateboarding isnt harder then rollerblading, it just has a slower learning curve because everytime you fall, you have to chase your skateboard to the other side of the skatepark

How about the 2002 USD UFS Gillan Psirus? I can get those for a nice price and they look very good. Are they any good?

How are the Razor LIEVANOS 2, they dont seem to be UFS but is that such a bad thing? How are they as a skate? RIght now I can get the USD Gillans for 209 and they come with a free pair of extra 5050 Frames and I can get the Lievano 2s for 169 and they come with the same deal. I am thinking towards the USDs but Im not sure. Hopefully my parents will pay for most of it so I'll be fine.

So now I think im dedcided on the Razor LIEVANOS 2, is that a good decision, they are cheap, razors, and seem to be better than most skates for the price. They are also UFS.

Salomon's do not suck at grinding.
It's just the person using them.
They are good, but the plates wear down a little bit quickly.

yeah, the plastic on salomons tends to come of like pencil shavings at times
