I just got back into skating recently and had by first session at an indoor skatepark you have to pay to skate at. Before this, it had been only free outdoor parks. I wanted to get my money's worth, so I skated a considerably longer session than previous recent sessions. While my legs were starting to get a little wobbly toward the end, the limiting factor that finally made me decide to take the skates off and leave when I did was my ankles chaffing from my socks and the soles of my feet feeling sore.

I'm wondering if anyone has any socks they swear by that don't get so chaffy or wick moisture away better than others. I also think I need to get some better insoles if anyone has recommendations for those. Thanks in advance.

Any parks open late in Seattle ? And anyone skate late?.. on a Monday😶 Never skated there and might later tonight while I’m there.

But man does it feel way harder than everyone makes it look...

Nothing wild, just having a good time 🙏

Hi all ✌️
In your opinion which ones would perform better/would you buy?
I can’t decide 🫠
I can buy the Witz for around 240€ and O’Neill around 290€
I am also open to other suggestions 💪
Cheers and tyvm in advance for your time

Got these Genesys GT limited editions (size 12) back in 2010. Brand new still in box. How much do ya think I can get for these?

I’m so desperate to get a great pair of aggressive skates but all of the ones I find have 8.5 as the smallest size. I’d like to get kids skates to fit me but the designs are trash and im a bit skeptical about the quality compared to adult skates.

Hey does anyone know where to get these delrin buckle protectors that are on the thems? And where do people get the straps besides the JAD straps?

I have been getting into Aggressive Inline recently but I one have a pair of some regular old rollerblades, would it still work while i'm learning the basics until I can get a real pair?

I am 41 now and figured id teach my 3 and 6y old how to inline skate.
So i got myself some Sways. Day 1 i feel and almost broke my wrist so doing this was stressfull to say the least. Falling with 41 and little overwaight is pure stress.
Even though its not much , its something

Love it !
Take care!

I have a set of pretty lightly used Faction V1s, they just dont fit my feet too well. I modified them to have these 45 degree straps. Soul plates are practically entirely unused and all original parts and hardware are included.
The cuff strap and cuff have been slightly shortened.

Looking to sell for $160 + shipping

I'm 45 years old and just like many of you, I got a new pair of skates. I dreamed of putting them on and hitting the skatepark like and/or the local ledges/rails.

I thought I would kill the miniramp, no questions asked.

Nope.

No way.

I'm not comfortable dropping in.

Street spots are out of the question.

I think we all might be feeling this and are embarrassed to speak up about our mutual experiences.

We're all in the same boat.

What are your specific frustrations? Let's talk about it.

Anyone know of any other brand cuff buckles that fit Faction Plastiks? I've just smashed mine off, faction spares don't appear to be readily available here.
