Riedell 265 boot
SureGrip Magnesium Avenger 45-action plate
Qube GOLD swiss bearings
SureGrip Zombie 89a wheels with aluminum hub.

Excellent choice of new wheels. Unlike you, I prefer a narrow piece of Stainless steel under my boots I owned Riedell figure skates a longtime ago when I was in a skating club. My sisters all still have their Riedell figure skates. They were one of the prominent brands in the day and maybe still are. Today I skate on Bauer 3000's and I have two pair that I rotate and should last me ten more years or so. I play hockey twice a week year round so they get some regular use. Good luck rolling around in those. DON'T break any bones

SWEET! Bauer is a great name, and yeah, Riedell is still a frontrunner, especially in derby skates. I would love to ice skate more, but our temps just fluctuate too much to have any outside ice, and indoor rinks are too far away for me. When I was in Jr high and early HS I played inline roller hockey for a while, THAT was a blast, I had a nice pair of Tours that lasted me about ten years! As far as the bones thing goes.. DON'T jinx me! Roller derby is kinda a break-prone sport! Already had a broken rib or two.. oops.

Maybe you could start an Ice Derby league. Oh yea, it's called hockey.

How's the other mode of Transportation doing? Get the problems fixed?

Still trying to sniff it out. She's going to go visit a Dr. next week. Fix it all even if I have to extend the dang loan, I'm tired of worrying. Need her to be back to good ole reliable!
