I bought myself a pair of beach bunnies a while ago, and I thought I was doing ok on them, though I having some trouble turning smoothly. I was doing some reading-up on how to make my skates more comfortable to try to combat the tough turns and one of the suggestions was changing the cushions-- and MAN were they right!! I feel like I can finally use my edges properly after changing out the stock ones to these (I'm using the orange/medium kit). They're fantastic and make my skates feel like an entirely new pair!! Very strongly recommend this product, works like a charm & gives me a smoother ride. :)
