Upgrading to new skates - 50% indoor (Metrodome) and 50% bike path/skate trails. Occasional marathon but more fitness than flash. Would like to get one skate for all modes. Suggestions & comments?

I was hoping someone would answer as I have a similar question regarding the pros/cons of the hi-lo set up in the moto fitness and extreme.

Anyone have any input?

Thanks

the Radical 90 skates or Moto 90 skates. Radical being a lower cut, more of a racing or marathon style. Moto a higher cut, same wheel setup that gives more support up top.

HI-LO. Opinions and preferences can't be wrong, and that is what determines which is best for yourself. Hi-lo setups are good for helping encourage a forward motion, naturaly stride for skating. Aids maneuverability with the smaller wheels while capitalizing on the speed of the bigger when sitting back.
