This review is from: Chicago Ladies' Rink Roller Skates - 10 (Misc.)

I was tired of the rental skates and wanted to be able to zip around the floor with my kids at the skating rink. So I bought these skates. At the time, it felt a little impulsive to spend so much on skates. Well, now I know I should have spent more and at least be happy with what I purchased.

I had such a hard time skating with these skates, and when I talked to the guy at the pro shop and 2 people online (there are a lot of resources online-do a search for quad skates) I realized these skates were made for beginning kids, never a 36 year old mom! They are not made to do the kind of things on the floor you think you might be able to do. In fact, I couldn't even turn. I kept having to push off because they would slow down. I kept adjusting them and had a professional at the rink adjust them for me, and forget it! I'm selling them at the resale shop and spending more money to at least get something decent.
