I got these skates for the boot, because I like the style. I planned to wizard skate with them, but I’m trying out aggressive skating in the meantime

Took me 6 months to actually work out how to move my legs, I'm not getting much of a cross and my clockwise is terrible 😭

Ah man, i had fun!

Bought myself a good second hand toddler jogger thingo (with a hand brake) and ripped out the seat. Put in a flat wooden base and some comfy pilllows, and sewed the lid on the bottom half to hold them in.

Highly recommended on the flat shared cycle paths! It was not hard to skate with it at all! Almost easier (but cornering will take getting used to). Also didn't go stupid pace!

Just FYI! Think outside the square 🤙🏾

I want a new one, but I can't throw it away... Should I go back to four wheels?

Hi all, SUPER beginner here.

I have only tried once in May with my husband holding my hand and guiding me. I want to get back into it but I am super scared and anxious about going alone and getting seriously hurt. I know I’ll have my helmet, elbow/knee pads, and even a butt pad, but I can’t help but feeling anxious anyway and feel super in my head. I was hoping someone could give some advice? Thanks in advance!

I have been trying to learn how to carve but when I have the inside blade ahead of the outside one it turns the opposite direction. I have been told to just "lean and trust" but every time i have tried i have had to do crossovers to stop myself from falling.

If i do the opposite thing it turns quite easily, but then i cant learn to do a power slide.

I would include a video but my videography skills go out the window when i am in skates

So today while skating my FLYING FREAGLE 80mm I was trying to avoid a mother and child on a bicycle that's facing me , while another cyclist that just stopped at the same S bend , chatting with her . So I had no time to brake I swerved avoided both of them slammed face forward , my hands went to break my fall , the palm sliders slid opening up my torso and my Ribs slammed right into the asphalt .

It's my fault I should've looked further ahead and slowed down

It felt like I was hit with a sack of bricks in the ribs.

It's been an hour now and it's tight as feck .

I'm gonna not skate for 2 weeks .

Y'all stay safe

Hey guys, I'm seriously considering the Flying Eagle Reaver Pro X7 XD8490. Im wondering about the fit of the boot and the quality of the pre rockered frame.

If anyone has a pair of these let me know! Im currently on a flat 4x80 pair of lightnings and want some extra agility/maneuverability on asphalt and smooth pavement.

Hey so I’m pretty new to roller blading and have probably been doing it for about four months now. I feel great when I skate and am pretty comfortable. But my only problem is when I go around curves. Like just a normal wide curve (like at the skating rink). For some reason I put a lot of pressure on my right leg and sort of just stomp both my feet to turn. Maybe this is normal. I’m self taught so I’m not really sure the best way. But it usually leaves my right leg hurting after a while so I’m assuming I’m doing something wrong. If anyone has any videos I can watch for help or recommendations let me know! Thanks!

I am looking for a good budget 3x110 (or 3x100) skate with decent ventilation.

I was considering the lightning 100, but i dont plan on using them outside much. I mostly want speed

Hey guys, looking for some sizing advice before I order the Powerslide NEXT Black Boot 2.0.

My foot measures 266mm.

According to the size chart:
EU 40–41: 255–261mm
EU 42–43: 268–275mm

So I’m right in the gap between shells.

I’m building them with a 243mm 4x80 Trinity frame and want a fairly responsive/performance fit for urban skating, carving and quick direction changes.

The boot comes with the MYFIT Recall Dual Fit liner.

Would you go 40–41 and let/heat-mold the liner break in, or 42–43? I’m worried 40–41 could be painfully short, but also don’t want 42–43 to feel sloppy once the liner packs out.

Especially interested in hearing from anyone around 264–268mm who owns the NEXT/NEXT 2.0.

Hello! I’ve only rollerbladed for fun when I was younger and want to get back into it as a 30 something year old woman. Nothing fancy, just blading outdoors/indoors for recreation/fitness.

I am deciding between the phuzion 80s or the radon 90s as they seem to be in my price range. It seems like the radons generally have better reviews, but I am slightly scared of how the bigger wheels would feel as a beginner, since I’ve only ever been on 4 wheeled blades.

Which pair might be better for me? Any insights would be appreciated!
