vnla speed skates are horrible. I hope you've figured this out.

The VNLA quads are pretty good and durable but the VNLA inline speed skates, they're different, those are pretty hard to actually go fast in. A friend of mine regrets her decision in purchasing the VNLA inlines because she says that the wheel itself doesn't have much grip and the buckle can easily loosen and break! The skates I have are Luigino Struts and they're smooth asf and durable- although they're expensive..

It's definitely worth trying! You will be in a great shape during normal season.

Hi Manda S, Thanks for your comment. When it comes to pointing out one brand it's not an easy choice and it really depends on what you are looking for. What is the most important for you - speed, comfort or durability? It also depends on the weather conditions, and therefore you need different wheels for a wet and dry surface, tarmac, concrete or indoor. I strongly recommend you to take a look at our website or contact us by email at www.skatepro.com. Have a great day :)

Hi Alice, thanks for reaching out! :) Considering your case of use, I would actually recommend to look into the "endurance" category on our website: www.skatepro.com/en-us/c26.htm Speedskates are without any comfort, as the boot is super hard and stiff, for optimal powertransfer. However, the difference that this makes is very minor in the bigger scale, but important for top-tier athletes. Long distance (endurance) skates has wheel sizes like speedskates, but comes with a more comfortable boot. So you will basically get the same speed, but do no sacrifice the comfort in the same way. Here I can really recommend the skates from K2 and Powerslide :) I would typically recommend to go up 1 size, but it is better to check the sizeguides on the specific models on the website. Feel free to reach out to us at email@skatepro.com, if you have any further questions!

@@SkatePro thank you so much for your swift reply 👌🏽 I will check it out 👍🏽

wow thats a uh very good question i have never thought about that, i have 4x110 and 3x110 but never had ur kind of thought about putting 110 wheels on 125 frames

Bigger frame allows for a bigger stroke.. So more effort to power ratio. Less contact to the ground equals more less rolling resistance = more speed. So i'd say big frame 3 wheels would be best.

Thank you!

Yes hyper’is really out of the game in racing now... matter and mpc are leading

This is something that is a personal preference of the rider. With 4 wheels you have a bit more grip and, of course, more bearings to gain speed. Even though, the wheel diameter is smaller. With the 3 wheels you have a bit less grip, comparing to the 4 wheels, but a bigger wheel diameter so you can actually gain more speed due to that. When you do want to compete in a marathon, for example, there are some marathons where you are not allowed to join with a 3-wheel setup.

for speed you should go for 100mm above

there is probably a button u have to press or smt

Could you explain? I'm interested in what u mean?

@@spanish_boiya.g9920 without rewatching this video that I watched 3 years ago. I recall them talking about harder wheels (tires in cycling) being better. That's only true on a perfectly smooth surface. Road cyclists used to run 120+ psi and now are doing like 70. Every bump in the road is a tiny hill you're climbing that saps your momentum. A softer tire absorbs those infinite 1mm hills allowing you to maintain momentum.

@@davidtt8372 As a Speed Skater I can tell you what he says about the wheels is true. The harder they are , the faster you go, even on rough roads, but overall less grip, with zero momentum loss. They also work good in the rain. You will never see a pro speedskater using soft wheels, regardless of condition, the will have a mix of 85A to 87A.

Speed skates can be inline skates, roller skates or ice skates. So, the context is important. But when is an inline skate also a speed skate. Let's assume the inline skate for the comparison is a popular, recreational, fitness-styled skate. A speed skate is usually coming with a low cut boot for advanced pushing techniques, bigger wheels for more speed and a longer frame for more directional stability at high speed.

Hi there! These could be an option: www.skatepro.com/23-15026.htm My best advice would be to measure your feet and find the exact measurement in millimeters. On all our speedskates, we have a size chart. Sometimes, the EU size varies from brand to brand. So it is definitely better to work with the "mondopoint" measurement :)

Hi, Unfortunately we don't ship to Canada yet.

Hi there, its Powerslide :)

I live in Texas and i go to get my a plaster copy of my foot and a guy makes a boot off of it

@@foster1738 I love in tx too. where'd you get it and how much did it cost?

go to an actual speed skating brand like Bont or Simmons.

Depends on what you want to do. If you want to go fast, you'd want harder wheels. If you want grip, you'd need softer wheels.

HI Vali! We are currently working on making SkatePro a global brand and therefore we are planning to start shipping our products internationally. Stay tuned!

Hi there!
