Rollerblade Macroblade 100 Womens Inline Skates

I love going fast as much as anyone else -- but unless youre on a speedtrack or going flat, long distances, these skates may not be for you.
Here's my detailed review.
Boot--
The boot is comfortable, but the top buckle wont easily fit as far into the latch as id like it to go. You have to really do some interesting manipulations to get it in there for a super snug fit. Lame.

Wheel size--
HuGe. But the problem are the wheels. They are so big that you've got to cross ypur foot so far over the other to turn its just not cool. Jumping, slowing down, everything except going in a straight line is encumbered by how far the wheels stick out in front of, and behind, your boot.
Safety--
These huGe wheels also have semi-dangerous qualities, imho.
If you like to lean back when youre stopped, or when youre skating downhill (i naturally do this from skating for so long) they nearly put you on your ***. The back wheel rolls backwards and pulls you down -- and fast. I had to catch myself and looked like a totaly goofball in front of people twice on the first day.

The worst, unsafest part (which made me return them) is the "slippy" quality of the Rollerblade wheels. Omg, when youre turning wide or on an angle, they slip like a car on ice. Very, very unsafe. No sticking at all, poor grip.
Returned.

And the designers mstve been gping for "reptilian" -- out of the box my first impression was EW.

But hey, if you like the luzard look, want to go far, in a straight line, they might be the skates for you.Hide
