Plates & Trucks
All of these plates come with aluminum trucks, medium hardness bushings and toe stops unless you order them otherwise. Mounting hardware and axle nuts are sold separately below.

WE ARE A ROLL-LINE DEALER. Please call us for Roll-Line models and prices.

Plate sizes are not the same as boot sizes! Check our sizing chart to see what size plates you should order for your boots.

Smaller plates (wheel base) tend to feel more agile for lateral movement and quick direction change, while longer plates are often perceived as more stable and better for sustained speed. Many (but not all!) skaters decrease plate length as they become more advanced in derby. If you don't know what size you need but you like how your current plates handle, you can send us the measurement from the center of your front axle to the center of your back axle and we can match it, or adjust it longer or shorter according to your preferences. We pass that axle to axle length measurement on to the manufacturers to get the appropriate size from them.

Revenge

$195

Riedell
PowerDyne Revenge Plate

Based on the wide foot plate design of the Triton that offers enhanced stability, the Revenge is constructed of the same extruded aluminum as the Reactor for weight reduction and increased durability.


DynaPro

$119

PowerDyne DynaPro Aluminum Plate

The lightest & best of the inexpensive aluminum plates, this is similar in design to the Triton, but with a slightly narrower footprint and EXTRUDED aluminum instead of cast (which is sturdier, but also more expensive). Recommended for those who prefer shorter axle-to-axle wheelbase for agility. Size that fits a 7.5 boot is exactly 3 oz heavier than the same size PD nylon plate.
Century

$141

Sure-Grip Century Aluminum Plate

Heavy-duty metal plate, great for outdoors & probably unbreakable.

45 degree angle action

Heavy, strong, old-school setup plates. Recommended by super old school banked track skaters most often.

(holds the wheels on)
Mounting plates is tricky business. Its helpful to have a centerline marking tool or diagram, and you must also have a drill (to drill the soles of the boots), and a bolt break-off tool for the mounting kit bolts. If you don't know what you're doing and you mount them a centimeter off, your balance will be seriously affected, and you can roll your ankles or worse. We can get you everything but the drill, but please have someone who knows what they're doing teach you how to do it first!
