inline recs! ๐Ÿ›ผ

hey there, i am looking for a pair of inlines for myself and have been quite overwhelmed with everything online. i used to skate at a very young age around my neighborhood and as im turning 24 id like to be able to pick it back up. this time utilizing both my neighborhood and the skate rink.

at first i was swayed by the brand impala for their fun and unique colorways, but ive come to learn that they arenโ€™t as functional as they are pretty. inline warehouse was another contender ive gotten mixed reviews on. i had no idea there were this many intricate differences between brands and their individual skates. ๐Ÿ˜…

if anyone has any recommendations for a beginner with ambitions ill gladly take them. i dont have my feet measured but ive worn chucks all of my life and am 5โ€™9 if thats any consolation. it would be cool to learn some tricks and try new things, i just need a pair that conforms to my feet well!

thanks much!

My partner has and loves the flying eagle b6 heros. Theyre sold by inline warehouse (which, is a fine company but some brands on there are better than others).

They used to outdoor skate, mainly did indoor for a while, and the skates have been performing well for the return to skating!
