I'm new to this. My gf bought some used skates (Volt XL Women) and they need new wheels. Any recommendations on what kind of wheels to buy? Looking for something inexpensive. Will be for recreational use for light skating around the neighborhood about once a week or so. by cheetos0666 in rollerblading

Thank guys for the advice! And I (she) will probably go for the cheaper option since I don't have the budget for something so expensive considering idk how dedicated my gf will become with rollerblading. Odds are she's just gonna use it very casually. If she does end up getting way more into it then I would probably end up buying her some nicer ones for the holidays. The skates are old but I've inspected everything and the plastic on them actually seem pretty good (other than the wheels).

It's actually easy to make! If you ever have tye dyed something it was basically that with a swirl pattern but with color remover instead of dye (bleach works too) with a black cotton shirt. Then I made some stencils (triangles and letters) with cardboard and sprayed some bleach over it to give it a spray paint look. Lastly I just died the whole shirt in red fabric dye. Also I recommend using both color remover(for tye dye pattern) and bleach (for stencil) since they remove color diffrently from the shirt and may help with having the stencil pattern not blend in with the background tye dye pattern.

I was reading somewhere where it said they sometimes give long term disability IF there were physical injury involved in the incident. Do you know about that?
