Sizing

Plate sizes are the distance between the axles, in inches. Atom's chart matches each plate size to Jackson boot sizes. For a traditional mount, Atom says to choose one size longer (1/4" longer), with the front axle about 1/4" in front of the ball of your foot, for more stability and power. For a derby mount, the front axle sits under the ball of your foot, for more agility.
