Review on πŸ›Ό Roller Derby Elite Alpha 110mm: High-Performance 3-Wheel Inline Skate for Speed and Agility by Patrick Arnautov

Revainrating 2 out of 5

*%&#*% Buckles! in Line & Roller Skating

So this skate appears to have decent bearings/wheels and a decent frame. Otherwise it's terrible. My wife and I tried several sizes. In all sizes, the foot is so narrow that it pinches, and the ankle is so wide that it cannot fit snugly. A good ankle fit is what makes inline skates work. Also, the buckles are so uncomfortable and difficult to use that my wife literally gave up without even buckling them up, saying she wouldn't want to skate if she had to use something that awful. This is a woman who runs 4 days a week and hits the gym at 4am. If it upsets her, it will upset you. Buy Rollerblade or Epic roller skates. They are both less uncomfortable and fit better.

Pros
