Inline Skates Recommended for General Purpose Skating

Skates in this collection capture the general purpose usability on streets, sidewalks, bike paths, etc. that we find a lot of our customers are looking for in their skating experience. 

Most have between 80-90mm wheels, with some options larger than that. Larger wheels will carry your momentum more easily, giving you a smoother, easier ride and more glide with every stride. Larger wheels generally have a wider turning radius due to the longer frame length, so options with smaller wheel sizes are usually more agile and easier to control. While the longer frame can limit maneuverability, it does provide the benefit of more front-to-back stability.

Options with larger wheels and a rockered frame often provide the best combination of a smooth ride with stability and maneuverability. More skates with these components can be found in our Wizard Style skate collection.
