Review on ION 7.2 Roller Derby Inline Skates: Aluminum Frames, Adjustable Sizing for Growing Feet by Jason Porter

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Brake pads worn out within 2 months.

The skates themselves fit well and they like that the skates are adjustable in four sizes. So far the wheels and trunk seem solid but the brake pad is already worn down to the bolt - my twins don't brake unnecessarily but it's gone and we can't safely use them anymore. My twins had another pair of brake shoes that lasted 3 years (a different brand) and we have never had to change the pads on them, in fact we can keep them for our youngest daughter to reuse. Unfortunately I cannot recommend these skates as they are no longer safe to use once the brake pad has been removed. If the company wants to send me two replacement brake pads (since I bought two pairs for my twins) I'll be happy to try again and update my review accordingly.
