My hockey skates bite into the side of my legs and it hurts!?

I just started playing inline hockey and i love it except for one thing. My inline skates seem to cut into the side of my legs and end up causing huge blisters that hurt like hell. Are they supposed to hurt this bad and is there any way to stop it from rubbing against me and hurting me? The skates fit perfectly so dont' say anything about the size. Thanks !

tighten them up or wear higher socks. Skates have to be tight tight tight..
Reply:The top of the skates? Like the top of the boot you mean? If the top of the boot is cutting into the side of your leg, then you should tighten your laces.
Reply:Oh my God. I know exactly what you mean. I went through three pairs of inline skates before I gave up and bought these: http://www.oihl.com/ChassisLarge.gif





They're not AMAZING wheels or anything, but it's really convenient. I can use my Grafs outside. And no more chafing of my ankles. THANK YOU GOD. So if you have a pair of ICE hockey skates that you are comfortable in, try these out. It's really easy to convert them to inline skates.





They're not the model that I have, but I can't seem to find mine anywhere online.





Funny thing is, I never really noticed how much I would hurt my ankles while playing until the day after. You really don't realize it when you're into the game, and it just makes it worse. I tried the socks thing a few times, but apparently my skates were made in Hell. Seriously, I might as well have been playing with knives in my skates. My friend had the same inline skates though, and he never had the same problem as me! At all! Ever! Pffffffffft. So I guess you should just try and see what works best for you.
Reply:swith to figure skates there easier to move in, dont forget about the glitter and tassels.
Reply:Ya high socks should do it. If not wear multiple high socks and lace up your skates over them.
Reply:i don't think you have the right size.. either theyre way too small or they need to be tightened

which would you recommend of these? with my other question everyone said that mission inline skates are really good. my boyfriend doesn't really play on a team or anything, he used to. and he's been playing since he was really young but i think it would be a nice thing to get him new skates since his are all torn up and REALLY old. he wears a size 11 in regular shoes, i need to check his old skates for what size they are. i'm sure he'll be really happy to get a brand new REALLY nice pair of skates. he's going to be moving to washington too, so i'll have to mail them to him. anyways sorry to make this long but thank you to whoever helps me (again) with this :)

How should i start aggressive inline?

ok so i wanna start aggressive inline skating so any tips on how i should start. might i add, sometimes on my reg skates im afraid t o jump cuz i dont wanna fall, any way to help slve this?

How should i start aggressive inline?
There are two ways. Jump in full tilt and build up to it.





Full tilt - pad up so it doesn't matter if you fall and get on a half pipe or rail. You are likely to have an "Oh S---!" moment and may even fall but discover that it works.





Build up - start by hopping over things as you skate on a street or trail. Get used to pushing off and landing.


Start skating off small (wide) steps or curbs. Bump up the speed and the number of steps.

Reply:Well to tell you the truth I play hockey now but when I was going on ramps in skates i remembered that inline skates worked the best. Its what I used to skate with and they worked really well.








BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT... Make sure you choose a good company brand name dont just go oh these are cheap look cool. Because trust me those will not I REPEAT WILL NOT HOLD OUT FOR VERY LONG!!!!











Sooo just given you a word of advise but also choose a inline skate that feels comfortable and is made by a good company brand name I dont know who makes them now and days but you can probably figure it out.














I suggest stores like REI, Big 5 sporting goods, or beachinlineskates.com

Inline skate sizes>! how do they run? i want to buy my girlfriend a pair for valentines day.?

how do they run? she wears an 8 in womens shoes, or a 6 in mens shoes, what should size in skates should i get her?

Inline skate sizes%26gt;! how do they run? i want to buy my girlfriend a pair for valentines day.?
Skates run about a 1/2 size bigger than a shoe but what I would do is try to take her skating before V-day and see what size she picks out/fits her. If you can't take her skating you will be fine buying her a skate in a size 8. A 1/2 size is not going to matter when buying skates found at sports stores (fitness skates, 4 wheeled inline skates) such as K2 or Rollerblade brand skates. Size matters most when buying skates such as aggressive or racing. Please don't hesitate to ask me for clarification.

Aggressive inline around $150?

Does anyone know of a website I could get a pair of aggressive inline skates in a size 13 for under $200? Every place I go to (especially skate shops and the mall) anything over size 10 jumps about $100 in price.

Aggressive inline around $150?
Check out the online skate shops below. Their pricing does not change based on size and there are several skates out there that are under $150 and in your size range. All of the skates listed on these sites will be quality (none of that knock-off, falls apart in 2 days junk).





You can also try eBay as some skate shops sell their overstock there.





Best of luck and happy skating!
Reply:your best bet is to get them used at ebay because youlprobably never find a pair new for under 200$ and if you do they will probably stink. If you wanted them new then go to www.aggressivemall.com but i think cheapest size 10+ is atleast in the 200s

Inline skating?

anybody know what station on tv they show aggressive inline?

Inline skating?
Sometimes they show it on versus. They had the lg action tour a few months ago on versus, the outdoor channel. It's very seldom to find it on t.v. now, popularity has dropped, as it has been dropped from the x-games as well. Your best bet is to buy a video. check some out here: http://www.aggressivemall.com/Magazines-...
Reply:LG action sports is the best tv show for showing inline skating, the show vert park and street with skaters all around the world. the channel is 419 on sky.
