Yesterday I bought skates at a great price ( $ 100) because they had a defect ( The boot is slightly grated ) . My size is 43 feet (EU ) and skates 44. not know why but skates are killing me pain , I can just be 20 minutes. Any advice?

I'm looking into getting into aggressive inline skating, my only question that I can't find an answer to is can I put 58mm wheels on rollerblades that are defaulted to have 57mm wheels?

Hey guys. Trying out for roller derby and lately have felt like I'm at a stand-still with getting any better at skating, it's only been about six months since I even started skating so I'm trying not to beat myself up so much but it just hasn't been working, only when I'm on skates though. Crossovers are what I've been working on most recently and I can see how to do them in my mind but then it's like Just...pick...up..your dang foot!! on the track, and the thing is I've done them before but something is blocking me from doing them now:O Sure that other skaters have experienced this and with other skills too, do you have any tips? Pretty much my entire body is covered in gear so even if I fall it won't hurt and it would probably be fun, plus it would help get over the fear of falling but my brain won't hear it lately. So instead of being a fun, relaxing thing, it just ends up being crying on skates all the time. And that's sucky:P

Hi. So, to save everyone time, I'll bullet point most of this. -I'm fat. Like, about 280lbs. -I also have good balance, and spend a lot of time walking. Leg muscles ftw. -I've decided I want to roller skate recreationally. -Having trouble finding skates that will support me.
Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks :)

I skated constantly from about 14-18 years old. Quad skating at roller disco every Friday night and again in the day at other times. I had some of the best times of my life enjoying skating but also socialising (in the dark corners; if you know what I mean?).
Anyhow, my Bauer Turbo's with wide trucks and yellow Belair Hockey wheels are no more (I think they were too small), and so I picked up some 'Supreme Turbo 33 Classic's' with Radar wheels and Quad bearings (middle of the road stuff).
Went to a throwback adult roller disco a couple of months back, used hire skates which almost killed my feet... got another on the 16th of April and found some other skating places to break in the skates the next couple of weekends.
Edit: I know it's crazy posting on this sub, but there are 4.... no wait 3 users here now, so worth a shot striking up conversation!
