  All of these skates look so nice! The heel skates look awesome with the bright colours. I use shell or as I call them boot skates and I think they’re best for beginners as it forces your legs to be essentially strapped in. I’ve been using them for 10 years and can speed skate in them but I’m not artistic at all. I really think though with heel or boots are perfect as a first set, tbh if u get flat skates u might as well just learn to use blades. The black and green matrix looking flat skates are cool too though!

  I first started in crappy Amazon skates with plastic trucks. The only skill I learned was the spin stop and it was rough looking<br>My sister got me suregrip boardwalks last October and my progress has exploded. Simply having decent skates made all the difference immediately. <br>Today im going in to my local skate shop to order some Chuffed pro boots to replace my boardwalks that I shredded. I wore those boots into the ground the speed hooks and eyelets are falling out, you can see my socks where I wore a hole in the toe box I mean I destroyed these skates. <br>But I also skate on asphalt 1-2 hours a day 20/30 days a month since I got them so it’s not like I was falling on smooth wood or concrete

  I love my Chaya Melrose, they’re so comfortable. I prefer the Moxi Panthers (suede boot) over the Beach bunnies since the boot is softer but still gives support and they’re only a little bit more expensive than the bunnies. Would love to see a video on skates for intermediate skaters too! :)

  Very helpful video that supplements a similar informative video from another creative. &nbsp;But this video uniquely discusses the best way to lace up the roller skates. &nbsp;So thank you for that. &nbsp;I will keep that in mind!

  I just received my Sure Grip Boardwalks and am watching your videos for adjustment. Hopefully, I got the right skate and the correct size! They feel tight but I know you said not to panic until I lace them. Now I&apos;m wondering about what socks are best!
