    Default Rollerblade liners

    Anyone have any experience with the RB trooper liners or any other recent RB stock liner? I'll be buying some new blades soon, and I'm deciding between the Rob g's and the troopers. Is it worth the extra cash for the new blank liners? I've been skating xsjados for a while, but the last liners i skated were the vicious widow liners and I loved them. How do these compare? Thanks.

    Blank liners are horrible in Solo skates. The heel is way too thick so your foot doesn't sit back far enough. I would go for the other liners, or maybe different liners all together.

    Interesting, so what liners would you recommend? I only have my vicious liners but i feel like they wouldn't fit well in the shell.

    Also can anyone say anything about sizing, specifically the width? I have a wide foot and usually a 7 skate fits perfectly length wise, but the width always complicates it.

    I think the skate is a middle width. I don't have it to measure it, but in an 8-9 (the size I wear) I think it's wider than a M12 but skinnier than a razors genysis/SL. About the same as a classic razors boot.

    I would think Vicious liners would work well in the skate. You just can't have too thick of a footbed. The Blank liner has like a 1/4" sole on it and then a footbed in it so your heel doesn't sit back in the 'heel bubble' in the shell. Those skates don't fit me all around, though. Not the best.
