I ordered these skates with the Genesis 2 frames and Salomon Wide Bodies. However, you do not need the wide bodies, the skate has a decent soul area, but the wide bodies make it better (my opinion). I heard the frames it comes with are ok, but they break easily, so I would recommend getting an upgraded set. I also read that somebody said, these skates felt like you were strapped to 2 pillows that were gliding down rails, and this is very true. The liners are very very comfortable. When I first put on these skates, I thought I slipped on another sock. The boot molded right to my foot and made for a very comfortable ride. After I put my skates together, I went outside to skate for a little while. Right away, I could do a Royale, and comfortably too. I had not been able to do one before because my ST1s have terrible soul areas, and right away with these skates, a perfect Royale. The skates were broken in within 20 minutes and I was doing everything I could with my old skates and then some. If you have the money to buy these skates, do, and if you have more, pimp them out. I strongly recommend that you buy or think about buying these skates. If you get them, I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. Peace.
