captainnifty 0 Report post Posted June 7, 2006 Hey folks, I put together a redstar alloy frame on a mission L7 boot and it's working gloriously for me. However, I"m gonna need a new pair for outdoor and can't really justify dropping the same amount for doing just that.I picked up a (few) set(s) of Sherwood(redstar) e-frames and was wondering if some of you guy knew if they had the same pitch.In the skates I put toegether, I'm more on my heels than on a usual mission frame where I 'm more on my toes. Can anyone help me out with tihis? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I pretty used to it now but I think I like the forward pitch better. Is it possible to shim the redstar alloys in the back to get more of a forward pitch. If so, what exactly are used for shims?
