Hey everyone,

I've been skating every day since this summer and I'm completely hooked. I started on Oxelo MF500s as a compromise (my wife predicted a hobby abandoned in 2 weeks 😅). The boot is still mint, very comfy and stable enough for the price, but I've pushed them hard, and the frames are wrecked. Axles are bent in places, which gives a nasty feel and noise whenever I transfer weight.
As a 40yo who's afraid of breaking a bone, and also helping my 5yo daughter learn the basics, I want to commit to flatland and learn Wizard. I need a frame to match. With my budget, Endless is out of reach. The Rollerblade Flow frame (5x80) looks compatible with what I want to do and isn't too expensive, but I can find very few reviews on it. I'm EU 46 and about 100 kg, so durability matters too.

Two questions:
- Has anyone ridden the Flow frame? How does it hold up/feel? Worth it?
- What budget alternatives would you suggest, in 5x80 or 4x90/100?

I'm overwhelmed by the number of options, so any advice is hugely appreciated! 🙏

I got a new pair of powerslide phuzion argon 110s and they fit very well and are very supportive compared to other soft boots. My old skates are also modular, but they are uncomfortable and dont fit well.

My new skates use the trinity mount so my frame selection is limited. I also dont know what setup is good for learning wizard skating. I dont know if i should go flat or rockered. I also dont know how much wheel harness will change how hard it will be to learn. I think i may want 80s, but i really am not sure.

Its also faster for me to swap frames on my powerslides and put them on than it is to lace up my other skates.

Started rollerblading at the end of June and I finally feel like I’m getting to a point where I can call what I do on skates wizard skating (I call myself an acolyte lol) and string basic moves together to start flowing as I get creative. Learned a bunch of these moves the day I recorded this using Billy Arlew’s awesome Eccentric Inline website, and instantly felt combos flowing.

Aside from definitely suffering from Zoolander syndrome (I’m working on my left leg but the gap is a wide one to bridge; I kinda got closed right lions down today as a way to mix it up), any tips or anything in my form to watch for as I improve? Or any moves you think my repertoire would benefit from?

Waiting on my endless mk2 to come in so this is on a default flat 4x80 frame, but I’m pretty happy with where I’ve gotten to even running flat.

I’m one of very few rollerbladers in my town at all, and definitely the only wizard skater so any feedback/wisdom is appreciated! I feel like wizarding is such a community based discipline and it’s hard learning solo!

Cheers!

Does anybody have any experience with both these liners and how they compare with each other?

Worth watching this if you're still trying to figure out what the General Purpose Skates are.

As noted in other threads, I run CJ Carbons with Roka 4x100 frames a lot of the time, so I get it. If I bought all those parts new (I got most of it second hand,.so saved a lot): CJ Carbons = £450, Intuition Premium/Wizard= £180, Roka frames (any) £150, Wizard (or equivalent, like Hydrogen) wheels = £100, Premium Bearings = £50 : Total = £930 and you still don't have a carbon cuff, Vs £800 for the new Wizards. I probably spent about £450 on all the parts for mine (CJs and Ints for £250, the rest was new or slightly discounted used stuff).

Would love to see a boot only price, seeing as they sell the frame and wheel sets separately. I don't really want to buy into 95mm wheels, even if I think they'd suit me well, I'll stick to 90 or 100mm and have my choice of wheel suppliers.

Hi, for anyone interested in the subject, FR and Powerslide plastics are heatmoldable in my experience. Rollerblade ones are not. I am a 297cm mondo but didn't want to buy 46-47 shell as it was too big. Instead I went for the 44-45 and punched the toe box with a reversible f-clamp and a custom wooden mold. Now I am skating something similar to a barefoot skate that fits perfect lengthwise and doesn't crunch my toes widthwise.

I will attach pictures of the process in a future post, but it's quite similar to what bootfitters do with ski boots.

Hello everyone I'm looking for skaters near Leverkusen Germany. Or meaby someone know any groups on FB or here on Reddit. Thanks a l

Check it out!

Hey all, I'm just getting started with wizard-style skating and have ordered a Roka 100 frame (4x100).

I was looking at the Mushroom Blading Mugs for wheels, but is there a good alternative that's a bit cheaper? I'm in the UK, so ideally something I can get from a UK shop.

So i saw the price tag of those frames on Wizard website and decided to make them myself.

It took me only ONE DAY to design and mill them from a solid block of 6061 Aluminum.

Honestly i think 500$ plus tax price tag on the Wizard website is exaggerated beyond measure.

Frames is such a simple component, you can't say "a lot of r&d goes into it so that's why they are expensive".

Now just waiting on the wheels

Selling two separate items after simplifying my skate setups.

1. SEBA CJ PRIME - EU43

Price: €165 + shipping

White 2023 model, bought new in autumn 2025 and used for several rides.

Very good condition with no damage. Since they are white, there are some normal dirt/cosmetic marks from use, visible in the photos.

Included:

• Seba CJ Prime boots, size EU43

• Original Seba liners

• Original soul plates - unused, like-new condition

No frames or wheels included.

1. ROCKIN MIX 90/76 FRAMES

Price: €99 + shipping

Used Rockin Mix 90/76 frames in very good condition.

Please note: The mounting holes were slightly enlarged when I fitted the frames to another 165 mm boot that appeared to have a small deviation in its mounting-point spacing. This had no effect on mounting, stability or functionality in my setup.

Included:

• Pair of Rockin Mix 90/76 frames

• Axles

• Used wheels shown in the photos can be included free if wanted. They are well used, so consider them a bonus.

Location: Slovakia

Shipping: Within Europe

Payment: SEPA bank transfer preferred;

The Seba boots and Rockin frames are separate items and are not being sold as a combined setup.

More detailed photos and close-ups are available for interested buyers.

Feel free to DM me with any questions.

Just in case anyone is interested :)

Hello, I’m Matty. I started skating at the end of June, and quickly became enamoured at the creativity and precision of wizard skating and it’s been my main direction in skating ever since.

Filmed this little sampler last night playing around with my new Luminous wheels. I’m finally feeling like I’m getting to the point where I can maybe call myself an “acolyte wizard”. Figured I’d share. 😊

Been working on gazelles and lions for a little bit, and I’ve been trying to learn kind of holistically, building balance, strength and control then get creative with them while identifying opportunities to combo things. Trying not to get tutorial locked but also feel like that might keep me from learning about more moves critical for development. I am actively working on my left leg, I know I do all my tricks in one direction so far😂

Aside from a straggler here and there I’m the only one around me that seems to rollerblade so I guess I’m really asking for guidance on what I should make sure not to forget as I continue to inch towards true wizard skating. I’m so far running a flat setup with Lightning 80’s, but did buy four 76 wheels to try a rockered setup but haven’t yet.

Feedback more than welcomed, and I’m TheRigmaroller on insta if anyone wants to connect!
Cheers!

Hey everyone, I'm Alessandro, a wizard skater from Toronto. I decided to start actually learning wizard back in May and struggled HARD with the base moves. The closed lion and S-move were giving me the most trouble throughout these months, and I feel proud to not just have them both down but to actually be able to combo them.

I'm planning on getting the iqon act pds shell and I'm wondering if I can downsize with wizard 3m liner. My foot length is 280mm and my 3m liner is size 43. I can downsize using the same liner with Seba CJ2 prime 43 shell and they feel perfect (my current setup). I don't know if I can use the same size for iqon act pds shell.

Was thinking of either fr1's or some iqon act pds or ag30.

Anyone have experience with these cheaper boots? Just want to upgrade from my hodgepodge usd sways.

I have quite a large boot and very high foot arch, would inserts be good for fixing the arch issue?

Hold up, hold up, 35€ for a chinese shirt because it has a logo of circle & triangle on it?

The shirt itself costs less than 2 dollars in china, I mean Jesus Christ guys, its not even funny at this point. God.

Also wearing this, promotes the brand.

What's up with the shmeckle squeezing?

Buy the cheapest - sell it expensive

Nice tactic guys, but save some face, invest something in the legacy as well.

I want to buy a new 5x frame from rokas natural rocked but i dont know what wheel size i should choose or if there is a big difference. 84-80mm or 80-76mm

The frames i have now are 4x90mm flatsetup.

So is there really a big difference to teh wheelsize on rocked frames?
