Inline Skating Wheels?

I really want to buy a pair of inlines, Bladerunner Performa In-Line Skate Women (here's a pic) http://www.dunhamssports.com/largeImage/...





It says it has 76mm wheels, is that OK for a 12 year old who goes skating every week? Or is there a better option?

Inline Skating Wheels?
Here's more information on the skate you are looking at (from the manufacturer's website):





SHELL Molded cuff for lateral support and durability.





LINER Removable, soft, padded liner and tongue


for breathability and comfort.





CLOSURE Buckle, lace and power strap closure


system for comfort and support.





FRAME Molded, rigid frame with rink-compatible


flush hardware.





WHEELS/BEARINGS 76mm Bladerunner cast


polyurethane wheels for a smooth and comfortable


ride/ABEC 5 bearings for optimum performance.





I think if you're an average size 12-year old, who skates for fun %26amp; recreation, it should be a great pair of skates. It has support where it's needed, the bearings it comes with are great, and the size of wheels are good. But if you're a taller/larger 12-year old, you may want to try skates that can accomodate larger wheels than a 76mm. Why? It's good to start with smaller wheels but as you become a better skater, you may want to go faster. Larger wheels (80-100mm) roll better, but if you're petite, larger wheels may also mean less stability, because you will be higher off the ground. Just remember that the larger the wheels, it's harder to maneuver.





Here's a link to Rollerblade's product selector:

The main thing is that the skates are comfortable. Try them on, roll around a bit, and if your feet/ankles don't hurt, it's good.





Hope that helped. Happy Rolling! (^_^)
