Anyone know anything about Inline hockey skates?

[JohnnyOctopuss]

I bought a pair for like $10 in a garage sale to just use for outdoor use.

I need new wheels and new bearings. I have absolutely no idea about them. They're much older skates....

I just need something to replace the wheels and bearings

Those look like they were designed specifically for hockey.
Laces! Man, these are OLD!!!

Laces don't mean old.....it's for better fit and support

Thanks dudes for your help, I had no idea where to start, or if I needed a certain size for the wheels and bearings. I literally do not know anything about them other than just getting them to use with my girlfriend when we go skating

The wheels might be rockered. That's when the two middle ones axles are lower. It's better for agility. You'll know if you pull a wheel out see if there's oval insert for the axle and the axle hole is offset. Set those all flat so they are more like average roller blades.

But, there's no denying that based on the simplistic design of the frames(part that the wheels attached to), that this thing is old.

Kinda skating on thin ice with that statement.

I was there, and it was thin. Good thing I'm small in stature. You, on the other hand, would have been a frozen wookie!

I don't know much about inline skates but I do know these skates need an 8s brushless upgrade!!!

man iv forgotten more about inline skates than most people will ever know. played a lot of street hockey and was heavy into "aggressive inline skating" back in the early/mid 90's. see if Hyper is still around they always made high quality stuff. i bought a set back in 2017/18(?) for a pair of Tour hockey skates iv got.
if you're going to be using them outside on concrete/asphalt id get a harder wheel, you'll have less grip but they won't wear out so fast. like a 85A. or if you want more grip lower 80's will still be fine as long as you're not carving the streets up all day. as a base point, most wheels on recreation skates are in the 80 - 84A range.
diameter is also going to effect how they feel. a taller wheel will be faster and smoother. smaller wheel obviously quicker but loose top speed. they are also more effected by cranks in the pavement/rocks/sticks/debris. size of the skate is going to dictate wheel size. for example if you wear a size 10 skate an 80mm wheel may not fit. measure your frame spacing and do some math before you buy.

and just to throw it out there, the wheels i bought almost 10 years ago now are Hyper Concrete +G 76mm 84A. they've been good wheels but personally id like a little harder wheel under me. id probably prefer to go down in size as well, maybe 72mm. but that's just personal preference.

for bearings I'm using BSB speed bearings with a ABEC 7 rating. no complaints. first set of ABEC 7's iv ever used. they're a little fast for my liking, I'm used to 5's. the 7's almost feel "slippery" to me but damn are they smooth.

I was also big into roller hockey and aggressive around the same time.

I was a rep for kryptonics, senate, sonic, roces and a few other brands. I'd print out a list with prices and go skate.....get orders. Then bring the orders a couple days later if i didn't have it on hand. Basically to get my stuff for nothing lol
Still have a hardly used set of fifth elements.

And I don't know if I'll ever run out of this
