re: London Skate Shop (Queens Skate Shop)

I'd just like to put in a good word for this shop. I bought new skates (yay!) from there today, and the service and advice offered was amazing. The shop is pleasant to be in, and I wasn't pushed towards buying the most expensive boot - in fact, the man suggested that a cheaper boot would be more suited to my level. All in all, it was a wonderful experience (unlike my local shop) and I recommend this place for all skaters who are able to come to London. What also impressed me was that they stocked almost every size of their boot models, and you could try things on as much as you liked (some shops have barely any actual skates and you need to order everything).
So pay a visit if you need to buy something! It was a little expensive (most things were about £10 more than in my local shop) but the whole time is worth it.

Risport RF4's (sold with the Ultima Mark IV blade)

I will probably get Coronation Ace soon, but I'll see how I'll do on the Ultima for now. I'm learning single jumps right now. Would you say the Ultima is good for that?
