New skate
Pros: Helped improve my game, Great value, Quality, Features
Cons: Expensive
So as others have mentioned its an odd first game going from a tri-di chassis to a 4x80mm one. but once I got used to it, im really loving the setup. after about 4 games im still getting used to how stiff the boot is and how to tie them up right and have them snug but not too snug to where my feet hurt. im a bigger guy so i put harder wheels in the middle and kept the softer millenniums on the ends and it seems to have helped roll (im 250lbs so rolling on xsoft wheels is like rolling over gummy bears) but also keeps grip and turning. i prefer the boot to be blacked out like the 11ks bc the white gets marked up easily but when do you really look at your feet while playing. the boot is also a bit wider for those needing some extra room (i even got an E width)
overall im real happy and after getting used to the skates my play has improved to the point where my teammates even said something.

Takes some getting used to
Pros: speed, protection
Cons: a little clunky, takes time to adjust
The weirdest part of these skates is the 4x80 mm wheels which is a big change from previous reebok skates than ran 72-76-76-80 (I had the 4ks) and that will throw you off a little bit for the first hour or so, but then they become much better. These skates do seem to be a little bigger than my 4ks, but these ones haven't broken in yet since they're way stiffer. Good protection so far, only drawback is the 80 mm wheels, while giving you speed, can be clunky when turning and stopping.
