I had ST Pros and all the salomon blades are really heavy. After a while you get used to it, but if you do street skating (but its all pools and ramps for me) you probably couldnt use them well.

The more one can skate 'out of the box' the better imho.
I will ride ANY terrain.. that is the fun part!! But I do not have the scoop on those ST Pro 2's.
I know people that only ride vert.. and they are nice people, but overtime when someone shows them am 8' high canyon run, ect... they either:
Get used to 'doing only vert'.
Or they learn to adapt and find an entirely new groove :)

A good skater can skate ANYthing on just about ANY skate.

What do you mean by this? Using skates off the shelf instead of DIY skates?

: I will ride ANY terrain.. that is the fun part!! But I do not have the scoop on those ST Pro 2's.

I admire this spirit and by all means recommend doing likewise. However, in skateboarding specialisation is a fact. 99 % of skateboarders nowadays only ride street and never would even consider a vert ramp.

That's right. Although I wouldn't call myself a good skater, I know some really good skaters. Watching someone who has style is a small compensation for not being able to do it by your own.
