Hi Diana, I’ve recently watched a few of your reviews on the Parkstars and Chuffed skates. Given the timeframe of your posts, I was wondering what you think about the Parkstars vs the Chuffed skates. I own both and love using them for longer trail skating time. Both boots are very comfortable. I did change my cushions and wheels on the Chuffed skates for a smoother ride. Thanks for your reviews!
How do they compare in terms of functionality? Where did they outperform the other? I have heard things like jumping in the park star is more powerful, do you feel this way? What about the weight of the two skates? Sorry for all the questions, I really want to know how the two compare in terms of their functionality so I know which one to choose.
All good questions. I don’t really jump that much but I do feel more stable in the Bonts. Overall I think the Bonts feel more stable but that maybe due to my derby wheels on there. When I switch to my Jacks I always feel quite high with the heel. I think it depends what type of skating you want to do. With the Bonts I can do derby (beginner), street skating. With the Jacks I use them for street and jam skating. Will look into doing a functionally video at some point. Good suggestion 😊
Just checked and I think it’s harder and it goes back further in the skate as well. So your toes are nice and protected and the front area of your foot.

How does the bont toe box hardness compare with the jacks?
