Blading

I was just wondering, who on this forum blades? I've been having knee problems from Skateboarding for a while, went to the doctor and get to hear that I couldn't skate much anymore because I was annoying my kneemuscles too much. So here I am, sitting with my board, not able to skate, maybe like 20 min per day.. jeej.

So I was thinking to get new blades, just to do it when I can't skateboard, I used to do this ages ago and had some Roces but the design of the whole skates have changed a while ago.. what skates are good to get, I've heard and seen USD are good skates?

I would think the impact would be worse on blades lol

I like to play inline hockey in the summer.. But I guess that doesn't count

Sure it counts lol, but uh yeah I still need to know a good brand.

And Yates, yeah maybe your right but skating only fucks up my right knee (im riding goofy) unless I'd start skating regular.

K2, solaman (sp?), and roces are all good.

If looking good is important to you, these are the ultimate blades for you

Kuffi...yeah it took me a while to hit you up with an answer but the best bet for buying aggressive skates is to go with Rollerblade....I skate Razors and I have owned every brand of aggressive skate that is worth a damn....I personlly like razors cause they have support yet flex...soloman isnt bad but I feel like im in a ski-boot....just some suggestions....also you can find used skates on ebay pretty decently cheap and good shape

If I were in your position, I would keep my dignity and just do something else.

Work on them knee muscles... go to a physiotherpahist ! I guess this subject is kinda old...

but how about an update on your knee(s) kuffi ?

what...is multisporting not the in thing now...wow...you cease to amaze me....I say roll anyway you can...im done

It funny how those are presented, skates from upwards angle to make them look degrading, downward angle for blades to make em look col.


Nah, I cant write this post. I had fcuking big ass post I thought of, now I got fed up and stopped it to angles. Like the pics though.
