I don't have any fitter nearby but I am getting a discount on some royal pros or I can pay full price for the electra light. I once tried on a friend new electra lught in my size and it fit perfectly. Maybe the tinest sliver of extra space In the front (but one size down was way too small).
My issue is I don't like achilles pressure, the jackson debuts have that and it hurts. I have also tried on the jackson freestyle ad there is ZERO arch support. Oddly the jackson artistes are ok but only after getting it majorly punched out and stretched (I used a clamp and shoe stretcher form amazon cuz I'm not near any pro shop ad don't have time to drive)
Is the topline of the royal pro similar to electra lught in that it comes up higher? Past the pain point of the achilles tendons when u point ur toes in skates? I have wide feet and high arches.
Problem is, I don't have any fitter nearby and honestly I don't want to drive hours to get to one. I'd rather take the chance and order online. The last fitter I went to told me to get the electra light in my size but I can get the royal pro at a huge discount but I've never tried that model on.
I know I'm trying to cheat it by not driving to a fitter but I'm trying to maximize with what I have resource wise.
I also have mk pro blades ready to go in my size as well.
That being said, is the topline area of the royal pro similar to electra light which fits awesome? Is the last similar? I'd suppose it's smaller bc its a more competitive model? I'm 5 feet and 100 lbs btw. Basic 6.
