shima 6's

how r the new shimas that just came out?

good... in my opinion they are the best skates out by Razors for vert.
The hard shell and the Reign liners are really stiff but also sick on street.

Would you say better than the shima 5's?

I would say they are the same. I really liked the liners in the Shima 5 also and are supposedly not cut but just added to the hard shell of a genesys so I believe they would skate about the same. The only think I really didn't like on the Shima 5 is the laces were too close together, the S6 are way better that way. Genesys or the Shima's are a good choice, if you're on a budget make sure you save enough to get Cozmo wheels. It will make you go at least 50% higher than you are going with whatever wheels you use. Eulogy are pretty good but not close to cozmo.

I just got my shima 6's and I am thrilled, they where really smooth. I'm a HUGE fan of the reign neoprene liners that come with them, I wasn't a big fan of the shima 5's they just didn't feel right. I had been riding the shima 4's with my old reign neoprenes in them right before.

I really like the Genesys style shell too.

i think the shima 6 is better only cause of the new liner its stiffer and the ankle wrap.
