I bought Moxi Lolly roller skates back in 2020, because I'd completely destroyed the derby skates I'd been using for 4 years before that
But then I spent so much money on the Moxi skates, plus adding new components to them (ceramic bearings, wheels, like 10 other random parts), that I've always been afraid to use them outside unless the weather is 100% clear and the debris/salt/gravel left over from the winter has been washed away by rain
...So basically I never use them lol
My coworker half-seriously suggested I get some "junker skates" so I don't have that problem, and I found some Impala skates on sale for ~$90, so I thought why not try them out
They came in the mail today, and I laced them up just to see how they fit... Not gonna lie, I already miss my Moxi skates lol
You get what you pay for, so they're """"Vegan Leather"""" (plastic) which means they absolutely do not bend or give for anything. It hurts just to wear them, which even when my suede Moxi skates were brand new it didn't hurt to wear them.
I know any kind of shoe/skate/thing needs some breaking in, but I don't even know how you can get away with calling this rigid ass plastic "leather," vegan or not lol. My derby skates were also plastic fake leather, but they actually resembled leather to the point where I wasn't entirely certain whether it was real or not before I looked it up (cause I'd gotten them second-hand but not used). Those didn't hurt to break in either.
idk I mean I'll give it the old college try, I've been wearing them around the house to sorta speed up the breaking in process, but every company who makes products out of plastic calling their stuff "vegan" is just a pet peeve of mine.

Ok. Changed to all blue and cleaned and lubed the bearings. Boy did they need it. Took me about an hour to clean them, clean the wheels, change them out, then make sure they were tight enough to not wobble, but loose enough to roll smoothly, and that they all rolled close to simultaneously. They are now safe to ride and smooth to glide, baybee.

Last year I spent so long customizing my skates I ran out of time to even use them, but now that they’re “done” I feel like it really comes together to make the smoothest possible skating on almost any outdoor surface!
Skates: Moxi Lolly
Before I got these, I spent years using low top/flat derby skates. The change took some getting used to, but it seems high tops make outdoor skating easier (in my opinion).
They don’t have more ankle support than low tops (actually they have no ankle support at all), but the high boot helps create more momentum when pumping for speed. You can still go fast in low tops, but I think it requires more effort. Having an easier time of getting/keeping momentum without the physical effort means I have more stamina to skate for a longer time.
Toe Guards: Riedell Leather Toe Guards
I originally wanted a full toe cap, but they cost a lot more - At least the real leather ones do, which is the only toe guard material strong enough to actually withstand all the wear & tear that they’re guarding the toes from.
After using them for a little bit, I don’t think a full toe cap is necessary anyway.  The sides stick out a bit from the skate, which seems to be enough to fully protect any area of the toes that might make connection with the ground.
Toe Stops: Atom Bionic Super Stoppers
These are a hold over from my derby skates. I’ve been using them since 2017, and though I can only skate like 3 months out of the year I still think that’s a testament to their staying power. I wouldn’t recommend every single skater get these toe stops though, since not every skating style uses toe stops the same way (or at all).
I got these because the easiest way for me to stop is turn 180 and go onto my toe stops, and it’s nice to have such a huge flat surface when I want to use them to “walk” for a quicker take-off or to get over an area I don’t want my wheels to be on. It’s just a bonus that having such huge fat toe stops means I won’t need to buy them again for, idk, like 10 years at this rate.
Wheels: Atom Road Hogs 78A
As far as I can tell, these are the tallest/biggest/widest wheels that will fit on a roller skate without hitting the boot. I had some 78A wheels before these that were smaller with round edges, and once I got these there was a pretty immediate difference in how much less I tripped up over cracks in the road.
Which leads me to think that hardness isn’t the most important aspect of a wheel, it’s the size and whether the edges are round or sharp. Road Hogs aren’t totally impervious to rough roads, but for me it meant going from being thrown left & right by cracks/bumps every few seconds to being able to skate one-footed on almost any road I go on.
Bearings: BankRoll Ceramic ABEC-9
If you went from ABEC-5 to ABEC-9 but were still using just regular bearings, I don’t think the difference would be noticeable. The difference that I notice with these comes from being made of ceramic (it’s called ceramic but the material is actually Silicon Nitride, which can withstand up to 1,472° F and 116,030 PSI).
My wheels literally never stop spinning, and although I add lubricant every so often it’s not required for them to continue spinning just as well. Aside from the Road Hogs, these bearings are probably the largest contributor to how smoothly I can skate outside with this setup.
It’s also a bonus that the resilience of ceramic bearings means getting my skates dirty & roughed up outside won’t have as much as an effect on their performance. My old bearings, I had to clean basically every single time I skated just to keep them from getting so gunked up they’d stop spinning.
Axle Nuts: Sure-Grip Zero Nutz
These are made of cheap plastic, so I wouldn’t exactly attest to their quality, but it’s one of very few external bearing protectors out there. I probably wouldn’t use them if I didn’t have ceramic bearings, because the cheap plastic means every time you screw them on/off the threading gets more messed up.
At least with being cheap it wouldn’t hurt too much just to buy a new set, but like I said not having to routinely clean my ceramic bearings is the main reason I even bothered with them. And they give me peace of mind to not have such spendy bearings just sticking out in the open for dirt/debris/grime to come into.
Cushions: Powerdyne Universal Magic 78A
At this point, I was just looking for things that I could make a change to lol so I can’t say for certain it’d ever be that important to get new cushions - But cushions do have different hardness ratings the same as wheels.
Most pre-built skates come with harder cushions as those provide more stability, but I wanted soft cushions to help with doing agile/quick movements. I also keep my trucks pretty loose, so that combined with the soft cushions makes for lots of flexibility.

Hello Everyone!🌈 I am a fellow skater that has recently taken up making skate leashes to help support myself through this pandemic. I make leashes from polypropylene webbing with metal star accents. Some of these leashes, like the one pictured, come with metal sliders to keep the leash from becoming bunched up.
My Etsy shop is: guzzoid. More colors and styles coming soon, so keep an eye out 👁
