How do I know if my inline skates fit right?

Some inline skates will require a break in period, meaning that skaters need to give the boots a chance to form to their feet. There are also some inlines that are ready right out of the box. You know you have a good fit when the boot is snug but not tight. Your foot and ankle should be supported and feel comfortable in the boot. 

What's your inline skate style?

Having the right kind of skate will enhance your skating experience by providing better stability, control and comfort. What kind of skating do you plan on doing? Skate.com carries inline skates for the following categories:

  • Aggressive
  • Fitness
  • Recreational
  • Roller Hockey
  • Urban

Each type of inline skating calls for certain features, some inline skates are hybrid and can be used for a couple of categories. For example, if you decide to start aggressive inline skating you will need a pair of durable inlines with a frame design that can withstand hard landings and extreme stunts. Whereas, fitness skates are high performance built for speed and will offer more comfort to help you skate longer distances. 

What kind of roller blades are best for beginners? 

I want to commit to learning how to rollerblade, what is a good pair of beginner skates? Most new skaters typically start with a pair of recreational inlines. The boot shell will give you great ankle support while you build your confidence on wheels. These skates will also be able to keep up with your growing skill set. Once you become an established skater you may want to venture into other skate categories. Whether you are new or advanced Skates.com has the gear you need to grow as a skater. 

Does wheel size matter?

Yes, wheel size and durometer will directly impact your stride. Larger wheels are meant for speed, whereas smaller wheels are meant for maneuverability. Durometer is the hardness of the wheel, which will vary based on skate type and skating surface.
