Review on ๐Ÿ›ผ Stinger 5.2 Adjustable Inline Skate for Roller Derby Boys by Tiger Carpani

Revainrating 4 out of 5

But could have been 6 stars.

The R&D design of these inline skates is insanely impressive, but it looks like the accounting bean counters got their hands on the cookie jar. Wheels with a diameter of 76 mm with a very soft hardness. So it rolls cleanly and evenly along the interior tile lines and exterior concrete cracks. Drive anywhere. At first glance the bearings don't seem to work well when freewheeling, but on the track their rolling resistance is comparable to a pair of CCM Externos and a three times the price Abec 7. Your child will not outgrow these bearings. They are fast. The size is easily and safely adjustable. Not thin at all. Ventilation openings on the sides and on the bottom. Children don't usually have athletic feet, but they will still help you. These are literally professional skates for a third of the cost. Has a quick release. Unthinkable: A quick-release strap is so cheap that it doesn't hold any tension worth mentioning. It only opens under tension. Better cut it off and replace it with a Walmart motorcycle belt. bam! 6 star skates! The laces also seem belated.
