You really have to rotate the wheels! If you turn them 180°, they will wear out evenly and keep their shape. The way you ride them, they all wear on one side and this drastically changes the stability and lastly has an impact on your technique. Two simple rules: the first and the last wheel has to touch the ground, otherwise the setup is not stable. It is no problem if the 2nd or 3rd wheel dont touch the ground, because with your body weight they will be pressed down. 2nd rule: rotate wheels so that they wear down evenly.

How to rotate

@mialily6787

why do you have to rotate them if when you ride them they spin anyway

@nulldemokratiezwei7773

@@mialily6787 Yes, but one side of the wheel wears out more than the other side (usually the inner side, because you use it to generate force). So one should take out the wheel and turn it around, so that "inner" part becomes "outer" part. In this way the wheels stay "pointy", instead of looking like the ones shown in this video, where only one side of the wheel is worn down ;-)

I’ve had mine for almost 2 years and use probably 4 times a week and they still work great and look great. Obviously had to rotate and change wheels when needed but the skates themselves are solid and affordable

Seriously thank you for this!! Been debating these because I was worried about their lifespan

Thank you for this video!! There’s SO many reviews on their skates but not their blades! I appreciate it! 🥰

Thank you thank you soooo much for posting a whole year review! I was really on the fence about getting them but I definitely will now. ^_^

Thank you for the update. I was on the fence about getting these but I’ve made the plunge 🥰

I thought the cardboard cutout was a real person just standing there watching 😭

Thank you so much for making this video, I know you made it like 3 years ago but this really helped me make my decision to get them!

Grew up on inline but it's been 10 years since I've skated. Like everyone else I bought roller skates for pandemic boredom and couldn't seem to ever get comfortable on them. Finally tried on some inlines and omg you'd think I had never stopped! Ordering these asap. Keeping my roller skates for rink birthday parties etc, but won't be taking them out for exercise/recreation.

Thank you for the review . I have been debating about these for a month. I may just get them now

cool vid always cool to see more people inline!

Exactly what I was looking for! Great update :D good to know that Impala can make something that last 🙈

tysm for making this video!! i rly appreciate the detail!

Thank you I’m returning to blading and what to choose has been a big deal. Yes rotate wheels for longevity. Can’t wait to skate. 👊🏻

Thanks for your review!! The color is really attractive to me.

Thank you for the video !!! I was told the fit is tight when you get them ? Since you had them for a year did you break them in or did you size up ?

How does the weight and speed feel? I’ve been looking at tons of reviews and I’ve heard that they feel squishy or sluggish because of the plastic frame, what do you think?

Omggg thank you for this video! I hardly ever see post-use reviews. I'm about to order my first pair!! 🥳 BTW Your Jamie cutout spooked the heck out of me at 1:09!! LOL🤣🤣

We NEED an update!!

Are they decent/good to go fast on?

There is a company called razors that make aggressive skates and they use the same boot. Only difference is all these parts are riveted and the Razors Cult has replaceable parts.

out of the blue, but I thought there was a big spider on your ceiling 😂

I haven’t found the answer yet, on whether they are a true fit vs. running large or small??? I found the Impala website, because I wanted a different look - specifically, something with orange! I could not find the brand that I have, which is Solomon. I’ve had my Solomon rollerblades for around 23 years. I certainly don’t wear them a ton and I’ve never even changed the wheels. It’s difficult to find nice pavement that doesn’t rattle my organs!!! 😖😖😖

I have these same exact ones and I have been using them for 5 months but I'm a beginner so mine are VERY scuffed. Just a warning for people like me who fall a lot: the sides will get scratches that you cant fix bc they're made out of plastic. But they are very sturdy!

Do they squeak when you are rollerblading? I heard they might squeak because they are plastic

I thought impala only make roller skates. The rollerblades color and design looks amazing. Is it for women only? I own K2 brand and never tried other brands besides rental skates. Great review. ❤ I subscribed.

👍 so dope

Blading is so fucking fun. Purest form of expression. One with the skate.

Do you wear them indoor or outdoor? I’m trying to find if they’re good for outdoor use like on asphalt.
