Are inline skates the same as roller blades?
YES, inline skates and rollerblades are the same thing, but much like tuna, albacore and chunk light are the same thing, only different.





The reason that we refer to inline skates most often times as "roller blades" is that the first company to successfully market inline skates was Rollerblade!!





Keep in mind that INLINE is exactly that, all of the wheels are IN LINE with one another, as opposed to offset, as with roller skates.





There are different inline skates for different activities, such as hockey, stunting, exercise, speed-skating, figure, etc.. My advice would be to decide which activity you wish to participate in, and then head off to a REPUTABLE sporting goods store and tell the sales person what is on your mind. Since we are on the subject of your mind, PLEASE wear a helmet, okay!?
