Answer
Hi Inliner,
The first & most important thing you need to pay attention to when buying skates is the fit. You need to spend time in the store feeling if any pressure points or sore spots develop on your feet & ankles when you work your edges - press your ankles from side to side & walk or roll around in the store as much as you are able, to make sure the skates are comfortable. Try to simulate as much as possible in the store, what you do when you skate. Pick a skate with 90mm wheels & ABEC 7 or 9 bearings if you are looking for speed.
Make sure you have good protective gear, be sure to use a helmet & skate with caution & good sense.
