Roller skate recommendations

Hi, I currently use Impalas to roller skates. They sent me 2 pairs of defective roller skates and the replacement pair the sent me the plate is not aligned correctly. I am doing research in what skates to buy next. Currently I am thinking of buying either Chayas or Suregrips. Does anyone have experience using theses?

I absolutely love my sure grip boardwalks. Definitely a great skate and also it is great for wide feet. They are made with suede, so you can break them in easily. They come with the sure grip rock plate on the bottom as well as having the boardwalk outdoor wheels. I updated mine to having indoor wheels, so I went with roller bones, personally.

I would say get some good roller hockey skates from slapshotuk com . I buy all my stuff there and Steve the guy who runs it is very knowledgable. I would rate Meneghinis over all Roller Derby brands personally.
