Just wanted to preface with this- I still consider myself to be a beginner/new to roller skating as well! Everyone has a personal preference on the type of skate they like, whether it’s a stiffer or more flexible skate. These opinions are all my own, as my opinion is from a beginner's perspective. I hope this review was helpful to anyone interested in getting a pair of skates! ♡

As a man, I got the coral/aqua combination. And I’m bout to kill it out here

Hi, hoping you can help me with sizing. Did you pick a size according to your foot measurement? And did you buy an exact fit to your measurement or did you add some room?

I'm so excited that there are more budget friendly vegan skates coming out. I only want to use vegan materials but it feels like the skates made with it are either really cheap or really expensive. These are super cute too!

Moxi has its sunshine and beach bunny vegan skates.

I wish these had been on the market when I first started skating. As a vegan skater it's been a challenge to find skates that don't compromise my own values. I paid the same for Candi Girl skates and they're basically trash. Thanks for doing this review!

Kelsi, that's wonderful but dont worry, there will be falls and lots of them to come. It's ok. It's part of the learning process. Happy Skating!

So in a time when skates are so hard to find, these have come out in perfect timing for me! So excited I pre ordered and used your code! So so excited for my first pair of skates!

Thanks Linda for existing!!! It’s awesome of RollerSkateNation to make you an ambassador as a new skater. I started last year and have found that seeing your account has been very encouraging and empowering.

Hi Linda, I just preordered these skates in coral with your coupon code. I have wide feet and it’s been hard for me to find that perfect match that isn’t that pricy. I was originally waiting for the sure grip boardwalk to be restocked but after seeing your video, I have settled on these. Looking forward to receiving my first pair of skates 🛼

I just bought these in the coral color this week. They are a gift to my cousin whose bday is this weekend. She is a beginner, so I will let you know how she likes it. I did also get her insoles bc I needed insoles for my own skates as well and they made a great improvement. VNLA instructs that skates should be ordered in your true size. I know for other brands most are unisex so u have to size down but in these Do Not size down. For me, this VNLA boot is rather stiff, more like a rollerblade boot. The wheels rolled nicely and the trucks seem very sturdy and snug. Nice stopper as well. These Parfait skates are super CUTE and I am sure it is a wonderful beginner skate.

Is the boot stitched or glued to the soles? 🤔 hoping there’s no heel separation issue with these.

Super useful video, thank you so much! So far I had a chaya because we only started skating this winter with my 6-year-old little girl and all we used so far was the kitchen... we had snow until now... but we are ready to take over the village 🤣 we want to go outside but need outside skates and my feet are wide so this has been super helpful, thank you 💗 lots of love to you from us from Latvia 🇱🇻

Update I just ordered these today:) and they can fit wild bones grind block! I’ll update again when they come in the mail

I purchased my first pair of skates a few weeks ago (at age 45) thanks to the inspiration I received from all your videos! Mahalo! Appreciate you sharing your story and keeping it real!! I’m vegan and purchased the Moxi Beach Bunny but am having such a hard time breaking them in... I’m wondering how these compare? Would you choose these over the BB for dance skating if you could only wear synthetic materials or do you feel like these are only really great for trail? I’m looking for the comfort and functionality of a suede boot that is vegan friendly. 🛼💗

Liked and subscribed. And I got the teal. 💙 It took me three days to pick the color I wanted! Edited to add that I got my skates last night. I'm 7 1/2 and I got the size 7. They fit well. I have average sized feet and they're snug around the toes, but they're roomy at the heel. Super happy with them so far. 😁

Thank you so much for this review. I have big feet and I purchased Candi girl DriftR which has a narrow fit, so I got the Bubble Gum 750’s, but I’m getting me a pair of these con payday!!! 💃🏾 💃🏾 I’m a new beginner, and you and Dirty Deb’s videos are so inspiring for this 48 year old.

Great observation I didn't even notice that!! I actually haven't tested out smaller wheels than the current stock ones that are 58mm, but it looks like it might be a tight fit if you're trying to use wheels smaller than that, but I didn't have any problems with jam skating on the wheels that came with the skates. Thank you for mentioning this!!

Is the sizing in term of foot length pretty accurate or you have to go a size down or up?

Hi, thank you for sharing this. I really wish I could see you actually skating in these. I would love to see how responsive they are when turning etc. Can you easily lean into a turn/ use your edges to turn? Or do you find you have to pick up your feet to turn?

have you ever used inline skates? and could you review them?

the bulk is an advantage, it makes them stable.

Is a _few weeks_ enough time to review a roller skate? - You claim that it is going to stay firm (4:15); If you have only used them for a few weeks (at best) how do you know that? What's the _firmness rating_ of the boot? - How hard do you skate? Are you a casual skater or do you dance? Have you changed the wheels and tried to dance in them to judge them for those qualities? - You claim that the boot will make it more difficult to do some jam skating movements in (4:23); which movements in particular? I don't see videos of you jam skating. Same with the park skating assumption. - Did you record your performance on the review units to compare with a similarly built boot?

@cheunglindaa

3 жыл бұрын

These are all great questions, thank you for taking the time to consider all this and asking! - I did want to break these skates in more before I gave a review, but I did have a deadline that I was given to complete this review. - I am a casual skater, and I also am learning jam skating as I continue my roller skating journey but would not say that I am anywhere close to being advanced or professional! - This is a great point, it would have definitely helped if I included videos of myself using these skates! I have not changed the wheels, and there are some clips of me on my Instagram using these skates! Moves specifically would range from the walk (dribbles), crazy legs, movements that require more ankle movement - Again, I do have video clips of me doing similar moves on both my normal go-to skates and these skates, but they are not side by side. Again, thank you for asking these questions! I am taking notes of the questions you asked because these are all great points and clips that I will remember to consider for any of my future videos, roller skating or not :) All my love and appreciation to you!
