I've been skating a set of Royals for over a year now (granted, I'm 40 and don't skate that much). I really want to try something different but not sure what. I used to skate Thunder's forever (10 years or so), then switched to Indy's for a long time. Got on a Crail kick (I'm still on it), that's why I got the Royals. I honestly don't mind them at all, I can't find anything wrong with how they skate at all. I just want to try something different on my next set up. Also, I'm cheap/poor and scour the internet and eBay for good deals. I've been looking at Ace 44's, Thunder's (the newer size for 8.38" decks), and those new size Ventures. Any opinions?
