V N L AVNLA Junior Lagoon Jam Skates for Men and Women - Indoor Unisex Roller Skates for Tricks and Jam Skating- White/Aqua

I’ve tried several pairs of skates for less money than these and they were all very uncomfortable with extremely bad wheels. These are quite comfortable even for my slightly wider than average foot. I picked up a size 9 and it fits me like a sock. I wear size 10.5 sneakers, sometimes size 10 depending on the Nikes. The trucks are very stable yet maneuverable, I weigh almost 200 lbs and the only thing I can say is I wish they included a set of harder bushings for the trucks because they get the maneuverability by using an oversized lower cushion with a smaller upper one and it makes it feel a bit spongey and like they want to track lines on the floor. You have to find the sweet spot with the kingpin nut adjustment for your weight and taste. Great quality for the money, can’t recommend them enough. I’m getting back into skating at 38 after missing out since I was about 16. I might get back into Riedell 395’s later which is what I had before with Power Trac plates and Power Plus wheels. I would change out the plates on these first. The wheels and bearings are fine for now, pretty grippy and roll nice and don’t need breaking in, but I still picked up some Rollerbones Turbo 94a. I would go with a 92a next time but they are outstanding wheels and very light for 62x44 aluminum hub wheels. They weigh about 93 grams each and the plastic hub Backspin Lagoon wheels that come with these weigh 89 so not much difference in weight. I also recommend Bones Super Reds if you’re going to swap bearings. I don’t like pulling them in and out except to clean so I always get new ones with new wheels

Skating is easy with these, easy to put on, lightweight for skates, and adorable!

They are awesome skates highly recommend

VNLA is the best brand I have found in skates I love! These are absolutely gorgeous in person! Definitely grab a pair!

These skates are super fast and pretty. They fit my feet with no break in. These are not beginner skates. Even after adjusting, they were super fast and easy to turn in. I’m keeping them but I’m gonna practice in my Darts a bit longer.

I purchased these for my granddaughter and she loves them!!

So comfortable, and smooth skating

Has a strong smell which I’m assuming comes from the paint on the skate itself. Bur otherwise lives up to the hype my daughter wanted them
