How much harder is it to turn 12.8" frames?

First time inline skater here. I have frames that measure 12.8" from front axle to back axle, 3 x 125mm wheels. I'm sure no one would have recommended these skates for my skill level, but it was the only thing I could find that fit my wide feet.

At any rate, I knew they would be a challenge, but I do wonder how much of the difficulty I'm having turning the things is due to my inexperience, and how much of it is due to the frame and wheel size.

I know I'm not going to be doing any Wizard moves soon, but how tight should I be able to turn these things?

  • Sorry to say mate, the only way is to try out. I am 1,70 meter tall. Riding on Bont 12,8 3x125 frame. For me it is same feel as 12,6. Also riding on 4x110, turns are tighter and faster due of 4x110😀
