These aren’t your average skate tricks. Michelle Steilen and the women of Moxi Roller Skates are bringing roller skating back in a big way. Using flips, tricks and stylish skates, this Los Angeles-based skate crew is intent on taking roller skating out of the rink and onto the streets.

I got a pair of roller skates yesterday, and I basically haven’t taken them off all day. I watched Indy Jamma Jones’ video on how to skate which was really helpful

finally, inline skating and quads skates are part of the same family of wheels on your feet, any animosity towards one another should be tossed out the door. I make rollerblade videos and would love to make some with any quad skaters

Moxies skates are really good price and last forever and good quality I don’t have a pair of moxies but my friend does and I have worn them a couple of times I’m not a big quad skater I wear quad every once in a while I usually wear rollerblades or inline speed skates and getting a pair of moxies that last forever and going to a skating rink so you don’t have to pay more for rental skates

Love the videos. Love your company. Love the bring it back better than ever mindset. Can you make the blue ones in men’s sizes up to 14? Or even a men’s model ? I would like a lower cut boot almost like my speed skates but with a medium heel height for rhythm and outdoor. My speed skates have almost no heel.😟 Most of the newer skates for guys suck. Mine are 25 years old but are still a current model around $500. Something like what your selling already as long as it can handle my6’2”. 230lbs jumping around on them.
