The boots and other material on these skates is great, however the bearings are horrible.  I mean the cheapest pieces of junk you can imagine.  The barely roll.  If you want to have fun and not have to work at skating, just buy these skates for the great combination of boots and trucks, then do the following:  take off the wheels, remove and throw away the bearings and replace them with something like bones reds. Buy your bones reds from Amazon.  They are about 3 times cheaper than online shops.  You will probably need spacers.  This is debatable, but I put them in anyway.  Do not buy skateboard or rollerblade spacers.  I had to find my at a roller skate specific online store.  The spacers were about $10.
