You can count on the sure thing Leather boots with grip are 1000 times more comfortable than leather boots without grip
5/5

This is a 1000-fold improvement in the wheels. My first set of skates for my fresh meat practice were the riedell r3, and I have just written a review for them. My research continued and I was able to return those skates for a pair of sure grip rebels after returning the original ones. You can count on the sure thing Leather boots with grip are 1000 times more comfortable than leather boots without grip. This is a 1000-fold improvement in the wheels. Afterwards, I showed my fellow fresh meat buddy who had been skating on the riedell r3 wheels with the stock Caymen wheels her wheels and they were caked with dirt and gunk from practice. The difference between my fugitive wheels was like seeing day and night at the same time. Dead skin cells are not stuck to the surface. No oil, no dirt, no gunk. The sure grip rebels are also more comfortable for wide feet thanks to their slimmer design. There was nothing like the rigidity and narrowness of Riedell R3. They indicated in their description that they are comfortable straight out of the box since they aren't leather. It's all lies! I was very comfortable right out of the box with the sure grip rebels! They are made of leather as well. Also, I didn't need to pay more to upgrade the wheels and bearings since they are already quite Getting new wax laces and toe stops was the only thing I did. The prices for both brands are essentially the same, except that with sure-grip wheels, you won't have to pay any extra for a better set of tires. These skates have helped me gain confidence as I learned to skate, to do crossovers, to do transitions, to improve my edging, to work on my plow stops, to handle more variety in my skating). There are transitions between stops as well as One more little tip for beginners I would have appreciated if someone had told me earlier Your trucks' nuts are seized. Loosen them. Your turns, crossovers, and everything else will be made easier by them. The seller is awesome, and the customer service is awesome. I would definitely recommend this seller to fellow fresh meaties when it comes time for the next tryout.

This is a review of a roller derby game
5/5

They are either a love or a hate for me. To begin with, these are my first ever derby skates. After I was drafted, I received boot camp/assessments/and practice routines from them before going into my first season. It's all about. The more I used these skates, the more I realized how many upgrades I need to make. The Sure Grip Rebel Avengers are available at other derby sites as well I suggest you get those. The ones you are buying will probably last you for a few seasons, but if you are not sure if you will last in derby, then get these. The package that comes with this model is a decent one IN THE DESCRIPTION, you will find a list of what Wheel Colors Durometers stand for. Honestly, I was not aware the color of the wheels actually had any meaning before I ordered them, but I specified pink in my order because it was my favorite color. Developed for a white 93a durometer vehicle, these pink wheels are sure grip fugitive wheels I was looking for the perfect hardness for my sport court flooring in an indoor rink It was a lucky break for me! You're a newbie and you'd like to know what to expect I don't think you understand what durometers are Skaters can offer advice on what wheels are best for the type of flooring you have and how to choose them Make sure to follow the order! It's a nice leather boot that's stitched and trimmed with dark brown and black colouring. A piece of paper that is not adhered. Once it is shaped to fit your foot, it will last for quite some time. Like a skate shoe, there is also quite a bit of padding. There are plastic plates and they come in different sizes Skates are not recommended for skaters who weigh more than 180 pounds. One thing to consider that is an upgrade to metal plates you will need to make in order to avoid accidentally cracking your plates. It is definitely time to upgrade the toe stops. It is imperative that a separate toe guard be added to these skates. During my two Fresh Meat practices, I noticed the leather on my toes was already wearing away The outside of the bag is severely Although I have upgraded my wheels as well, I still enjoy playing around with the Fugitives that come with these skates. I have probably put $300 into upgrading these skates to make them legit for my season and my style Rather than buy skates that look like derby skates, I should have bought the right ones from the start knowing I would play as a derby skater. Fresh meat wouldn't do any harm with these - It is better than any R3 boot since these boots are made of real cowhide leather (and not cheap vinyl that will deteriorate over time). Although this is leather, it isn't very good. Now that I have these skates, they will be my outdoor skates and These skates are ideal for this purpose since they are junkers. As a whole This is a decent package for the price, but expect upgrades or new skates entirely in the future! Please note
I like whorchata.

These are freaking awesome skates
5/5

My girlfriend and I go skating several times a week, and I decided that I needed to buy my own skates because the ones at the rink don't fit well (since I'm a size 14) and do not have good I think these skates are fantastic in their overall performance. Their fit is excellent, they have plenty of comfort, and the wheels are well-grip (probably why they have that name). It was the wheel bearings that were the only problem I had with these skates (don't be discouraged from the outset). There are no bearing spacers included with the wheels, and the ABEC-rated bearings are no longer available The spin of a 7 doesn't seem to be as smooth as it should be Earlier, I noticed that one of the wheels on the right shoe wouldn't spin for more than a few seconds, and the nut was extremely The only reason not to immediately discard these skates is that the majority of other skates on the market do not perform optimally in terms of wheel spin and would ship with the same issue. In short, I purchased some Bones Super Redz bearings with spacers and speed rings, and spent roughly $40 on them. In total, I watched a little youtube video research and replaced the bearings on all the wheels (which have a fantastic grip), and now these skates go so fast, and the wheels spin for almost a You can probably get the best skates you can get for your money if you have a big foot like me and you are looking to get into skating, as there are few other options besides these and Riedells at a size range like this. All you have to do is replace the bearings, and you can go fast for a long time.

I would order from this seller again
5/5

This skate is great, fast shipping. Because I skating avidly and I wanted to stage an outdoor skating event during this epidemic, I decided to set up an outdoor skating rink. I found the product to be exactly as described. It fitted This seller supplied the wheels very quickly! I changed the Radar Energy 65mm 78a set with bone super reds and radial tires into them instead. The spacer. All kinds of obstacles are no match for these wheels Honestly, I'm shocked. I just skated outside and it was awesome. Making up for being unable to go to the rink definitely puts a smile on my face.
