I just skated last weekend at my kiddo’s 13th party for the first time in 43 years. I think I loved it more than I did when I was a kid. The last time I skated I took a pretty bad fall and broke my arm. I’m 50 now and will be investing in wrist guards and some tailbone protection, but I’m hooked and I’m all in. I’m so grateful for you, Dirty. I LOVE watching your videos and I feel your love and passion for skating. You are helping me to build confidence. My husband and I are going on date night (adult only skate!) Thursday night and I can’t wait!!

This is priceless information for me. I’m 41 years old and haven’t really skated much since I was a teenager. I learned very quickly that it’s not like riding a bike. I feel like I have completely started from scratch. I thought I could just jump back in to it with a pricey pair of skates (roller blades) like I use to wear as a kid. I’m now convinced that I need to swallow my pride and buy a pair of skates like the ones featured in this video and work my way back up.

I bought my Fame skates in January of this year. Skated on them 70+ times between January and October. They were definitely an improvement over rentals for a few reasons but mostly that I could adjust them to my liking. I also replaced the bearings and wheels in August with Bones reds bearings and Rollerbones Elites 103A 62MM that gave a much better roll. The only problem I had with the Fames is the eyelets near the top started ripping out. That could be because I was tying them too tight and I had my trucks set too tight. Overall they were good skates for the money. Ive recently bought Riedell 120 as an upgrade and they are very nice skates. Thank you Dirty for this channel I have been watching since the restart of my skating journey in November of 2021 after 33 years. Im 49 now and when I did skate back in the day, I wasnt good lol. Now I can skate backwards and do thing I never thought I would do on skates!!

I totally get why you’ve tried not to sell us on any particular skate before, however, having specific recommendations from you is so helpful! Would you consider doing a video breaking down your recommended skates by price range, like best skate options if you have $100-200, best skate(s) if your budget is $200-300, etc? Maybe subcategories like, best for a wide/narrow foot? I know that there are a lot of variables, and some of it comes down to preference but I would love to see something like that!

Thanks to this video I just received a pair of Sure-Grip Boardwalks today (pushing 50 and back to skating after 36 years out of a rink). My feet are picky and I figured they wanted/deserved the suede as opposed to the Fames, but this video got me in the right ballpark and after skating them for 2.5 hours today, I'm ABSOLUTELY in LOVE!! Also, thanks to so many of your OTHER videos, today's skate was not just fun, but also 'productive' from a 'working on specific things' POV. I skated as a kid, with no formal instruction and have just been 're-figuring things out' on my own up until the last week or two when I found these videos.

Thanks a million for this because I always try on shoe, but I would've ordered online. 😊

I understand Sure Grips sells excellent skates/boots, but keep in mind, if you have a narrow foot/heel, Sure Grips only come in medium and wide widths--they tend to run wide. When I started skating 100 years ago, I wore Chicago's until they literally fell apart off of my feet. Now I wear Riedells primarily because they come in narrow width. If you have the opportunity and and you're serious about getting into the sport, go to an independent pro-skate shop, try on different models at different price points and see which ones feel good on your feet. Also, if you select a boot that can be used for figure skating, expect a "break in" time for the boot to mold to your feet and ankles. You can't enjoy skating if your feet hurt. Good luck!!

I was lucky to start with Chaya Elite, amazingly comfortable and good quality. Looking back I see all the bad choices I could've made, there's basically only one shop with 3 good skates in it in my country and usually you don't order from abroad, when buying your first skates.

I'm a hugger, love her demeanor and putting people at ease, I'd have to ask for a hug for all her encouragement 😉

I love your videos, I wanted this skate , had to get Impalas to start because that's all store near me had to try on.. I fell so hard on my ass& got on them next day& started practicing in my living room after 40 ys of not skating...2 months later, I got pair Jackson's w pulse outdoor wheels& green abec7 bearings., I finally now just purchased the baby blue suede boardwalks, I know I'll love when I can break the boot in, however, felt slower on rink w the stock wheels& they're smaller then my wider outdoors, so since I want light up hybrids w rollerbones, I will be doing an upgrade.. seriously trying to make my Jacksons the indoors and the shore grips the outdoor skates.. 😂

These look like good beginner skates at a reasonable price point. Thanks Dirty.

I never got a pair of skates as a kid. So my first pair I got as a adult were from Big 5. Needless to say they were awful. My next ( and present) pair of skates I got are some good ole Suregrips ! I love these skates....

Dirty! Thank you! I just bought the Ridell Orbits the beginning of this month, I had to do some tweaking with them, I had to get some cushions, because my truck just wouldn't adjust after being adjusted. I got some jam plugs to go on. I also want to now change the wheels, because the wheels that came with the skates are a 85A -- and i think i need something in the 90s, just something less gummy. theses 85A are just too grippy on the rink, (good for outside tho) .. and i was totally just thinking about the next skate i will get. so Yes, for sure.. #SureGrip-Fame is on my list!

I think Orbits were created for outdoor skating, so it's no surprise it came with softer wheels. I have Sure Grips Royals which are rather fast (101A hardness) and I like 57s, but the Fame wheel is supposed to be really good as well. Good luck!

I just got candi girl skates, I'm so excited

Thanks for this review...this is the skate that I will buy. I took a chance or used skates but one of the wheels doesn't touch the ground or floor. I had to fight it every time I tried to skate, because the left wheel would go over the the right side. So no more cheap used skates. Again thanks

I purchased the Suregrip Boardwalk suede skates. They hurt a little across the top. But they're finally loosening up so hopefully, they will stop hurting

These were accidentally sent to me when I ordered boardwalks and I did try them on and holy crap are they a comfy skate (moreso than the boardwalks in my IMO but I still like the boardwalks better although they're more expensive).

So the fames are very similar to Jackson's an ice skate. Four speed hooks on wach side of the boot. One problem I broke the second to last speed hook on mine. Is that fixable?

I have wide feet, my Riedell skates hurt my feet. I received my new Sure Grip Boardwalk skates today, I did not notice when I ordered them that the plate is nylon, should I replace the plates with metal? If yes, how do I know what plates to buy?

the skates you recommended have a nylon plate. Doesn't that mean that they are not as strong as an aluminum plate and are a risk for heavier skaters? I need to replace my skates due to changes in my feet after foot surgery (need a wider boot). I'm used to skating with aluminum plate, so I'm not worried about the weight of the skate. I am concerned about the fact that I weigh twice as much as I did when I bought my last pair of skates however.

Can anyone recommend similar kind of skate found in the UK. Id like a good all rounder as I start skating complete beginner. thank you😊

Any suggestions for women’s 9.5 EE? Yes that’s extra wide feet.

I really enjoy your videos and I value your opinion. I tried the Sure grip skate skates. They feel like a pair of cheap shoes on your feet doesn’t seem comfortable to me. I’m a beginner skater. I guess it’s my feet

Try a skate that has a leather boot. I think the Fame boot is vinyl. Expect to pay more for leather.

Do you have any advice for someone who needs a wider shoe? would you suggest sizing up or finding a wider skate?

This skate already has a wide fit, it's great for wide feet from experience.

Thank you my wife has been looking for 6 months
