cant go wrong with any rollerblade trs models. all the models are essentially the same with different color schemes so you can get a solid pair for around 100-150. great skates for beginners since theyre so cheap and have such huge sole plates(easier to learn grinds) very comfy too and very customizable. also check www.rollerwarehouse.com

^ razors are the best quality skates after chaketa skates straight out of Quebec.

in general, no K2s are horrible in my opinion. razors, deshi, remz, and rollerblade are awesome. USD is pretty good but i dont like them as much. ive skated all these, and right now i have a pair of razors and remz cuz i feel theyre the best.

razors=
-high cuff(especially with Shima liners)like ski boots
-easy/nice backslide plates
-huge soulplates
-simple, which makes them light
-many, many, many options

remz=
-totally differnt from all
-super low cuff
-"freedom of feet" design(look at it on the website www.remz.com
-very flexy/soft

USD=
-similar to razors
-simple/light
-less "locking" backslide plates
-nice large soulplates

Rollerblade=
-HUGE souplates
-OK backslide plates


ATTENTION:
these are all mostly just my opinion after skating all these skates for a long time

yeah i had those. theyre really sick. the only thing is since u tweak ur feet to the side a lot. it puts a lot of pressure on the outside edge of ur foot and with the TRSs they bothered my feet. that was only with the stock liners though. with JUG or others they were good. o should be fine. thyere really nice skates. just make sure u get them small enough
the smaller u get, the cooler u are
haha

TRS are good because they're cheap and easy to get parts replaced. also they're tough as hell.

ive posted on a lot of these threads - i rollerbladed for 5+ years up until this year, and you can check the links on the other inline threads. basically any skate will do you well, except xsjado, they are just funky. i skated TRS for a while and theyre pretty heavy, id say go with old remz if you dont do gaps and stairs, but if you do then def. get some new razors. here you go:

nah not really, ive bought most of my skates without trying them on first have havent ever had a problem (id say ive been through about 5 pairs that i ordered online). the liners are so thick and soft nowadays that the skates can be a size off and it wont really affect you. just go with what shoe size you wear(accurate shoe size not like an 11 if you have an 8 foot). skates arent really like ski boots where if they dont fit just right your gonna be real uncomfortable so you have some room incase they run a little big or a little small.
