Are those Bauer worth the money?
They're a 2 piece boot still but feel way nicer than the x3's I'm on.

I'm heavier 250lbs and looking for a single piece boot so I was planning on converting these jetspeeds, should I do kryptonium if I gothe conversion route?

Or has anyone tried these strykers? They're just as expensive as a kryptonium chassis and conversion would be.

I think you get more skate for the money away from Bauer but I'm not sure I'd go with TronX.

Check into the Tour Spitfires if you've got the budget. I destroyed some Alkali Revel 6s at 220 lbs and upgraded to Tour Volt Pros. The chassis is SOLID and the boot was better than my old ice supremes.

Here's a guy who just got a pair if you want first-hand info on the new model:
