Rollerblades and Inline Skates

on every type of skate out there. The biggest point for choosing a skate for inline skating is to have the lightest skate you can. Most skates today are made out of three different materials: Leather, Carbon Fiber, and/or Fiber Glass. Along with the light material boots, the Frames, or Plates are also made out of the lightest metals possible ranging from Magnesium to Aircraft Aluminum. The most important part of an Inline Skate is the wheels, or else you will go nowhere. Skaters have different preference to wheels depending where and how they are skating. For indoor tracks skaters prefer the hardest wheels they can find in order to reduce the give that wheels get due to body weight canceling out slower speed. For outside wheels they want the hardest outdoor wheel because the same reason applies, the softer the wheel, the more give, causing slower speed.
