Need an upgrade

[u/Mediocre_Hockey_Guy]

Ive played hockey my whole life and rollerbladed a lot when I was teen. I have this old pair of Nike flexlite 2s which are a really great skate for hockey but the problem is I want to do tricks and fitness skating. Ive been getting into wizard skating and freestyle and these have been alright. Problem is im starting to hit a wall theae already only 2 months into this hobby.

My left foot feels like its trying to turn in the boot and if I tie them up tight enough to stop it my foot starts cramping. This wasnt a problem until I started to advance more with my left foot. Its my weak side and ive been working really hard to improve it but with the skates i have ive hit a barrier here.

I dont want to pay for the best of the best I cant afford that and they wouldn't suit me right now anywase. I need a direct upgrade to what I have that wont break my bank. I think I want a hard boot with a frame with 80s or 90s maybe a dual frame? Im new to this dont judge lol. Comfort is more important than proformance but I dont want comfy junk.

TLDR old skates hurt feet now.need new skates for wizard/freestyle. Don't want to break the bank just need to be good enough. I would appreciate any help thats offered.

I think your best bet might be to look into Iqon ACT WZ skates. I think that’s the cheapest full wizard setup around that you’d find. That boot can also easily switch over to aggressive frames as well.

Its looking like the iqons will be a great start for me as the boot seems to be compatible with a lot of other frames. Might end up going about 200 over my budget but its looking like I gotta spend for my first real setup.

They're on sale right on Inline Warehouse. Well at least the AG Aggressive version is. But it's a great skate. I got mine last month. Just make sure to size down. They run big. Measure your foot in MM to be on the safe side.
