I just decided that I have to sell my Cults since they are too narrow and kill my feet :( too bad, it was such a good setup

I also gave up on skating Remz because of the offset frame position, they were great on tricks but bent inwards and they killed my feet too, all the pressure was on the sides of my feet

I'm going to try on some Aragon 2's and Salomons soon

no Remz, Cults (so I'm guessing no Nimhs and Valos too), Carbunz too expensive, not a fan of Xsjado

so do you have any advice? I remember Al made a wall of text about which skates have frames under the middle of your foot and which are offset, I could use that

TRS are wide and have a more center frame position, and they skate good imo.

TRS and Xsjado have centered frames.

I dont know about the new RB's though.

Carbons are pretty centered too.

Remz, Razors, USD's are all offset.

Valos are pretty close, but still offset.

Nimhs are way wider the cults because the toe is cut out at least it feels that way

The stock cut is barely anything.

Get 2 fleshlights and put your feet in them.

Fleshlights seem even less stiff than remz, my ankles wouldnt like that

thanks for the advice everyone! hopefully I get to try on some salos soon

Definitely go with the Salo's. Actually I'm switching temporarily from my Salo's to some Aragon 2's I just purchased from SDSF (thanks for the free wheels!). It's going to be interesting. But, I suggest Salo's.

No problem Ryan :)

I skate Genesys 8 and I don't know what people are talking about with the frame being off-set...

Maybe I just don't notice it but these are the best skates I've ever had (and I hadn't skated a Genesys skate since the Genesys 1, which I hated coming from the Cult boot).

I skated Remz for 5 years and did notice the off-set frame a bit, but they are still awesome. I'm a big Razors fan now though.
