I know this is pretty much a repost and im sorry for that bit i couldnt find any threads suggesting skates. I'm new to inline skating and i dont have any idea of what to look for in skates. My budget is $150. I plan on taking it pretty serious So i need a good pair. again in sorry if this is a repost and if anymore information is needed i can supply.
I have a pair of Rollerblade NJ5 Skates for sale. It's a good beginner skate and that's why I got it, only used it twice before heading to school though...I just don't have any time to use them now.. size 10.5, pm me if you're interested and we can work out a price
If you're in the US then your best bet is to order something from aggressivemall.com or rollerwarehouse.com unless you live near a real skateshop which is highly unlikely. Go to either of those sites and have a look around.
I have carbons. The only thing with them is the liner isn't removable so I gutted them and made it removable myself. Some of the newer ones might be, some arent it's weird. I liked SL's too.
OP don't waste your time buying fancy bearings that are like 100 bucks or something. Whatever they come with are fine, and if you ever need new ones just get bones reds. They're easy to clean and single shielded which aside from buying fancy ones is the only thing that will help you.
rsimpson34Thank you. What level of bearings should I go for?

DO NOT BUY ROLLERBLADES FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! Although I had broskows model and they were a sweet skate. I like the remz, and haffey is the king. I still rock the all white haffeys since 05, any skate will last you.
razor genesys with the jugs liners are a pretty solid balance between quality/price point. it'll be around $200 but you'll be glad you got them.
Might want to look at freestyle frames if your looking for something similar to skiing. I could surface swap with freestyle frames after a few months. I prefer antis for box and coping grinds, not that you can't grind coping with freestyle frames, it's just a little easier.
