Hey man talk to asian_allen but he would reccomend xsjado's.... but anyways i would probably recommend just a regular razor cult or genesys anything in those series would be good since they are a little cheaper also

personally i would suggest Xsjados

Huge soul plates, flexy, fast, stable, and not too pricey
plus you just put your shoe in, so no need to buy new skates when your foot gets too big

wheels: eulogy wheels, long lasting, greatly made, nice owner

And yea listen to Alex_G, Dstructure is great

Yea I have a pair of XSJados, and their pretty sweet, I'm a beginner too, but all the people that I skate with around here say that it's one of the worst skates to start out with, just cause of how big they are, but i guess it's just personal preference eh?

xsjado's are a terrible skate to start on look into some razors from www.neglectedtruth.com

i wouldnt say terrible. but yeah, me and allen disagree on this one. i wouldnt start anybody on Xsjados. only on a hardboot like Razors. even Rollerblade, but even i wouldnt put someone through that hell.

get Razor Cults. you will not be disappointed.
