Risport Skates help?

Question

which risport skate would you recommend for freestyle level?

Whats the difference between the plastic sole and the leather sole?

On certain websites i see the risport skates with different names but when i visit their official website i don't see those names,are those boots the same as the one on the official website?

Answer 1

 Risport are the most popular skate in the world at higher levels. You don't see as many in the US, but worldwide they are most popular. I started with Lazers, then SuperCristallo RF3 and I stayed with that model ever since. They are discontinued. The older supercristallos are not as good as the later SuperCristallos with the RF3 designation. The newer ones with RF3 are stiff and they NEVER break down. The rest of the boots are finally getting worn out but they are still stiff as new. Now they just give the model designation RF3 and they don't call them by the name anymore. 

    They come a bit narrow.  If you get the right fit you will like them a lot. I bought them too small one year when i was still buying the lower level models and they never did change shape as I had hoped. Good luck they're great boots. If you work out hard, don't get the lower level boots or you'll be buying new ones every year. If you're just going skating regularly and you're not going to push it any model is fine. I work out pretty hard. sweatty and maximum wind.

Maybe there are boots made in China, but for sure there are no Risport made in Romania.

Answer 3

There are few things you need to know about Risport skates. Number one: look for ones that were made in ITALY, from what I read on Russian message boards, a lot of Risport boots are built in China or Romania and their quality is much worse verses boots that were made in Italy. A lot of complaints, people say same models that lasted 10 years(Italian made) are falling apart  very quick if they were made in China. Also a lot of them can be defective! I have few pairs that were made in Italy and they look really good. Well made, uh, Italians! They know how to make great shoes. Materials, every seam and finish look perfect. Padded tongue is seamed too, not just a piece of porous rubber glued like on most of other skates. There are many models, generally word "super" ads extra stiffness. Super diamant for example is harder than diamant. They have different heel, different fit, so I recommend to try them on before you buy.
