We made this as comprehensive as possible. Before you even think about buying roller skates (we know what an impulsive lot you are) PLEASE take the time to consider the questions. If you really just want to jump to the run down of skates, you can navigate using the chapters below. Emily and I have coming up to 17+ years experience of skating - and we've done lots of disciplines to a pretty decent level between us. We know what makes a decent roller skate.

What you need to know: 💜 Roller Skaters need 16 bearings- two in each wheel 💜Buy a roller skaters pack 1x16 or 2 x skateboard packs 2x8 💜it's usually easier to install bearings into softer / grippier wheels 💜Buy wheels and bearings from us at the same time and we will fit them for you 💜 we recommend you have a set of bearings in sets of wheels you use regularly 💜use better quality bearings in wheels with a more specific purpose (usually firm wheels) to get the most response from the wheel. 💜 Your axle size determines if you need 7mm or 8mm bearings. Very generally, most manufacturers use 8mm, some European ones particularly favour 7mm. Got a question? Ask below !
