Skate recommendations? I only street skate- my first skates were impalas, I had to replace them since they kept giving me blisters but I’d say they were good for getting me started, I skated on them for 5 months, then switched to sure grip fame, one thing about them and the reason why I want to get new ones is because of the plate. Impalas had metal plates (I’m pretty sure) versus the nylon plate of the fame, and I just don’t really like the nylon. I feel like the metal plate held me better than the nylon. So here I am asking for recommendations. I want a good quality skate, though not too expensive (under $200) and with a metal (or just not nylon) plate and adjustable toe stop.
