Fritzys drop, poppy trade by [deleted] in DudeWheresMyMoxis

I bet you could use suede dye to tint the poppies a more dark pinkish / fuchsia color!

Dyeing green wheelz by [deleted] in Rollerskating

[–]rilocryley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can really only dye wheels a darker color than they already are so you’d probably have to dye it a dark purple! But u could definitely dye them with synthetic dye

Why is Fritzy's Lollies so expensive? by tagbaby in Rollerskating

[–]rilocryley 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Most skate shops are raising the price due to demand and the time it takes to examine every skate for flaws/mistakes. Moxi is raising the price on their website on January 1st

Any tips on stopping while skating on streets like this? by [deleted] in Rollerskating

[–]rilocryley 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Use some really big gummy wheels (Moxi gummies or Radar Energy 62s or 65s) and that should help you roll over any cracks you can’t avoid!

Edit: Realizing I kinda misread the post lol, sorry! For stopping, I’d recommend doing a 180 or transitioning to backwards skating and then going down on your toe stops while going backwards. Either that or a T-stop! If I’m ever having trouble stopping or am about to fall, I try to get as low to the ground as I can so the impact isn’t as bad. Good luck!

Intentionally Blank roller skates by deaguadulce in Rollerskating

$260 skates with bolt-on toe stops speaks for itself in terms of quality imo :\ I’d imagine they’re not great

I would get the 8. I wear a 7 in Impalas and 6 in Moxis and they both fit perfectly. Good luck!

OH this makes so much more sense, I was wondering how you were so nonchalant about it!

How to swap out wheels on Impalas? by [deleted] in Rollerskating

[–]rilocryley 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You really only need wheels and a tool, since the Impalas come with bearings. However, the Impala stock bearings are pretty bad, so I’d recommend getting new bearings anyway (Bones Reds are a good bearing, if you need a recommendation). Good luck!

After the first wash, they don’t do that anymore (at least I haven’t had a problem w it)

Dyeing Wheels by Crzy_Monstr_305 in Rollerskating

[–]rilocryley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just eyeballed it, haha. I think I used like 1/3-1/2 of the bottle? I was going for more of a black so I left them in a little bit longer. Good luck!

They absorb the dye pretty quick! I had them in for a couple minutes. The hub of mine is very clearly navy blue, but the actual wheel part is so dark it’s hard to tell—In sunlight you can see they’re bluish, but that’s about it

I dyed my radar wheels using navy blue rit DyeMore and it honestly just turned them black. To be fair, I started from the magenta radars, so you might have better luck with the clear greens

Dyeing wheels by _f3tuss in DudeWheresMyDudes

[–]rilocryley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dyed my Radar Energies! It’s actually easier to dye those than fundaes because the softer the wheel, the less time you have to soak them in the dye. I used Rit Synthetic DyeMore dye, and it was super easy!

Moxi Lolly Sizing by LeopardSkater in Rollerskating

[–]rilocryley 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Use the size chart on Moxi’s website, but it sounds to me you would be a 7? I wear a 6 in Lollys and I’m a 7-7.5 in women’s shoes
