How do you grind though, Do you have to take wheels out? Put some sort of plate in or something?

if you don't have trick blades..take the middle wheel out and that is where you can grind but be careful becasue if you don't have a grind plate..it can grind down very fast

well, you kinda need a groove in the frame so you can actually lock onto the rail, so if you dont have aggressive skates youre kind outta luck

but if you really want to grind take out 2 middle wheels on each skate, jump on crap and slide it

dont bother taking wheels out. it causes the two you have to wear more quickly and new wheels cost quite a lot. Your best sticking to boot grinds (stalefish etc) or leaning ALOt when you go for the lieks of a Royale or something.

Id invest ina decent pair of skates.

Another thign you can do is buy a pair of grinding blocks and stick them on the inside of each boot.
