What are the best kind of inline skates to use at a skating rink?

I prefer a cute style of skates. I have heard about different types of skates but i dont know which kind to choose for speed I dont want them to look gay.

What are the best kind of inline skates to use at a skating rink?
If you are going for cute at a skating rink, consider quad (the old style) skates.





A lot depends on how you intend to skate and how much you plan on getting into it. It sounds like these will be your first skates.





Even a slow inline skate will be fast inside a skating rink.


Racing and Fitness skates (the two fastest types) are more difficult to steer around tight corners. They are designed to be stable at speeds that your a very unlikely to ge going inside a rink.





Hockey and agressive skates probably don't fit your deffinition of cute but hockey skates are designed for manueverability in a rink.





Street skates is a relatively new type. It is designed for dance and slalom moves. It would be good in a rink.





Recreational skates are the most common skates out there and have a wide range of styles.


Normally I don't recommend anything with wheels less than 80mm because the larger wheels roll better and are easier to get good replacements for.


However, smaller wheels have better manueverability indoors and wheels wear much longer indoors than outdoors.





Note: Ignore Emma's recommendation. Agressive skates are deffinately NOT what you want. They are built heavy to handle the abuse of landing from jumps.


It appears that she is shilling for these no-name cheap skates since she wrote in antother message "I want to start inline skatin and i want 2 no if these are good skates?" with the same link to the skates she is recommending to you and another skater.
