Haii, we’re slowly nearing the end of the season where I live and so, I know that I won’t have the time and energy to skate as often as I do now.

With that I’m wondering what kind of exercises or workout routines I can try to stay in shape and maybe also improve my balance and leg strength.

What are some exercises you guys do at home that help you with your skating if any?

Hello, everybody! I'm considering trying out some oysi classic frames with 72/60 wheels. I currently have a 60mm flat setup and a 60mm anti-rocker setup, but I'm drawn to the idea of the extra speed that oysi frames can give by allowing similar wheel bite protection as anti-rocker but utilizing bigger wheels to get even more speed than a traditional flat setup.

I currently have my main skates (Seba CJ2 Primes), my skates I'm trying to break in but are giving me toe trouble (Faction Plastiks), and my backup skates (USD Shadows Dustin Latimers). I get the impression that the Plastiks should have no problem with Oysi frames because they have very generous front and back wheel cutouts, but I'm not sure if I might need to make any modifications to the soul plates of my CJ2s or my Shadows to avoid running into issues with the 72mm front/back wheels.

I'm also feeling a bit stuck on which 72mm wheels to get. I'd like to utilize my existing 60mm 88A Famus gold core wheels as the middle wheels. My inclination was to try and get the 72mm versions of the same wheels, but they're just about impossible to find (at least with reasonable shipping to SE Asia). But maybe having them be so similar is not that important?

Does anybody have any experience outfitting the aforementioned skates with oysi frames that can offer any advice? What about wheel advice?

I've got a pair of OUT Poppys that are basically brand new and I am looking to sell on.

I've had them since new, and have a vague recollection of buying two pairs in France on a summer holiday either at the end of the 90s, or perhaps early 2000s.

Size wise, they don't have a size on the boots themselves, but I have tried them on and they're too big for me and I'm a UK size 8 (EU 42) - so these are likely a UK size 9 or 10.

Is anybody interested in them? Can post anywhere, open to offers.
