Hi!
I'm new to the forum and I have a plate/plug question:

A few years ago I purchased a Roll Line Giotto plate and I love it!! Previously I skated on a Roll Line Variant and before that a Sure Grip Classic. My issue is that I miss doing moves/spins on the jam plug and I'm tearing up my boot. When I skated on the Variant plate I often bottomed out on the jam plug, which is why I went NTS.

For the past couple years I've been focusing on snapping and I'm a big fan of J-Roc, so my style is an amalgam. I'm guessing I can't have it all, but if anyone knows of a plate with the edge control of a Roll Line and plug clearance I'd love to hear about it.

Thanks!
