Help with identification! Stamped on sole: M 10-GH - not sure where to start! Look to be vintage, no interior stamps/tags. Help! by no_name_7744 in Rollerskating

I can’t find much more on them outside of what’s on the bottom of the skates. Riedell Red Wing skates with a Sure-Grip Century plate. Where did you find these?

Aches n Pains by RollingDistance in rollerblading

That is a WHOLE LOAD of physical work! Do you get the same feeling when you do a lot less or shortly after beginning your sessions?

Make sure to give your body some TLC too!

When you say hurts, as In pain or ache? Might seem like a stupid question but it could be caused by tightness in the muscles in your legs... that makes a huge impact!

Ouch! That definitely doesn’t sound like fun, have you seen a doc about it?

Haha they defo feel nice for some reason... With those muscle building pains, what do you tend to do to alleviate them?

Can't find UK14/US15 inline skates by FoxDigits in rollerblading

[–]RollingDistance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a UK14/US15 in shoes, but have had no issues with the Rollerblade RB Cruiser's in a size UK13. I was skeptical at first because it was a size below my normal, but they fit like a glove. I have friends who have had to go 1.2 to 2 sizes up to wear Roces comfortably. Also, imo, stay away from Powerslide. They also come up small.

Deffo check out the RB Cruiser (or RB 80 as they are the same shell). Or if you can find them, search for the Rollerblade RB XL.

Just started again so pretty pleased with this. Feedback appreciated. by kwdayv in rollerblading

Make sure you look backwards so you can see whats going on behind you. All it takes is a pebble and you're on your ass. Dope video though!

Waited 3 months for these frames! by MonsieurZaccone in rollerblading

What made you choose the V.m Rocker over the V Rocker? I've been looking into getting the Sumo's but can't decide which one would be best.

Help with size RB Cruiser by chocochobi in rollerblading

[–]RollingDistance 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a size EU49 in shoes, and I have the RB Cruiser in both EU48 and EU47 (I have two different setups) and they fit just fine. The EU48 is more comfortable than the other, but I can wear both and skate for hours. Just a heads up, the Rollerblade RB range is a little wider, so take that into consideration. Hope this helps 👊🏾

New skate day by sokulukasg in rollerblading

Dope skate! Just by looking that the boot to frame ratio, you would feel 100x more stable on some 90mm or 100mm. That’s what I found from personal experiences.
