The plates on these roller skates are Chayas Shari plates. They are made with a mix of nylon and fibreglass for a strong lightweight plate. Along with the 20° cast aluminium trucks and Jelly Interlock cushions, you get a highly manoeuvrable quad roller skate that is fun to skate and easy to control.
Octo Paseo wheels with a soft and grippy 78A durometer. And paired with the Wicked ABEC7 bearings you get a really nice setup. Notice that if you intend to use these skates for indoor derby only you might want to get harder wheels which will be better suited for this purpose. Controller toe stops make changing direction and stopping a breeze.
All-in-all, The Melrose Elite skates are super fresh to behold and very comfortable to skate.
