I want to buy some skates but am not sure which way to go. I like the idea of roller skates more than rollerblades (they seem so big and bulky and unstable) but am afraid roller skates won't work for me as I mainly plan on using them outdoors. Any suggestions?!? TIA!
Rollerblades are big and bulky, but they are not unstable. I've had the same pair for almost 17 years and I love them. IMO, they are great for the outdoors and are much easier to glide on for exercise compared to actual roller skates. It took me a while to get used to them when I first got them, but they really give such a great workout and your legs, stomach, and butt will tone up quickly if you use them often!
