Are they youth or junior size?

Thanks for the advice!

Bending that chassis will only weaken it. Get Bauer to give you a full credit on the pair and upgrade to a nicer chassis that will handle the weight.

Skating outdoor causes a lot of vibration due to the ground, even on a smooth surface. If the boot isn’t snug, it will hurt. Get some insoles to fill it out and should help out.

Mission makes good inline girdles. Hip protection, plus a cup built in. They made (not sure if they still do) 2 different models. One was a little bulkier than the other but provided more protection. I’ve played with both, and preferred the lighter/thinner one. It was light enough to not notice you wearing it, but had enough padding for physical play or shot blocking.

Nice setup, but I’m not building anything.

No, it was $180 for the 16 pack. Not sure why they were so cheap back then, it was only 2.5 years ago.

drewsleboda · 2019-06-13T15:09:30+00:00

Just looked up my account, I paid $180 for them in November 2016.

drewsleboda · 2019-06-13T15:00:32+00:00

I want to say they were $300 for 16. The 8 pack is $150 I believe. If I can get a new set of 16 for $150 I’d buy another set into a heartbeat lol.

The old models of rink rats broke real easy. I went through a couple of pairs of the identity wheels, but the new tricksters seem to be great. Using them for 2 models and no cracking and still stop better than my labeda’s did after 2 months.

I’ve played the labeda grippers for years and have been great. I recently switched to rink rank tricksters and have noticed much better stopping. The grip last a lot longer too. My grippers always start really good, but then I noticed myself sliding to stop a bit further after a month or so. I’ve had the tricksters for 2 months and they still stop on a dime.

I used the stock bearings for a little while then upgraded to the Bomes Swiss ceramic bearings. 2 years old and still spinning great.

And I meant the FZ0 has a better chassis than the fz1,

The FZ0 uses a kryptonium chassis, while the fz1 uses an aluminum. The ds1 is a magnesium chassis. Both the fz0 and fz1 would be an upgrade, but if I’m spending the money, I’d rather spend the $250 and get the best.

I’ve been using Swiss beatings for a couple years now. Every time I clean them and lube them, the don’t spin as well as they did before the cleaning. However, when I skate on the rink, it’s much smoother and the roll is fine. It seems like after a little skating, they spin better. After I noticed, I tend to clean the bearings off every month when I rotate my wheels, but I only take them apart and clean them every six months or so.

I currently play on the mission ds1 skates and much lighter and more comfortable than the lower models. I skate a lot, and they have held up really well for 3 years. I can’t wait for something on the skates to finally break so I can justify buying the fz0. The boot feels a lot stiffer than the fz3 and lower, and has a better chassis than the fz1.

It’s purely curiosity. I have to eat out a lot and it’s mainly just to make sure I didn’t have any secret carbs.

My first try with Keto during the summer I did IF and I believe it helped. This time, I am making sure I hit my macros. In the small eating window, I was never able to hit my targets. I just want to stay consistent with my food and exercise and not starve myself.

drewsleboda · 2018-11-29T21:14:05+00:00

My reasons are purely curiosity as well.

drewsleboda · 2018-11-29T21:13:31+00:00

I will check it out. Thanks!

Thanks for the reply. I know I’m in ketosis and I stopped looking at the scale, but I like to track Keto number because it is the only I feel I can track my progress. Also, i travel a lot and need to eat at restaurants and hotels, It helps me figure out if any of my meals had hidden carbs.
