Impact???
if you are looking for an inline skate to help with impacts look for fiziks frames. You can find them on Skatepile.com.
These frames have independent suspension for each wheel and from what I hear they are incredible.

 I'd like to know the difference between fittness skate and aggressive skate impact ( 2 meters high drop ). Are aggressive skates so much softer and flexibile?

I assume you are talking about inline skates (most people hanging out on this site are roller skaters, not inliners).

And yes: As a rule. aggressive inline skates are much better damped for hard impacts. But you could take the same inlays and put them into a fitness skate. Then the damping would be similar. However, the aggressive inlines also offer more support for your feet. I you really like to do 2m drops (why?), then use aggressive skates.
