"I need a burly human" 😁 I do too! I think Suregrips will be my choice if and when my vintage ones die. Both my indoor rink skates and outdoor skates are vintage but refurbished running gear on old plates.. My outdoor skates are full, grain hand made leather boots from the 70's. Both pairs are solid. Both feel different. I just love vintage skates. I've skated for 40 years. Great to watch you. This is the type of skating I love. Free and out in the world where every crack in the path is a challenge. Happy skating to you both forever!
The Sure Grips are a very solid mid-level skate! I've since graduated to Edea skates for the added support, but for the price, my Sure Grips served me very well!! Gosh how I'd love to peep your vintage skates. 40 years of skating is absolutely aspirational!!! Happy skating to you forever as well 🥰🥰
I absolutely ❤ these skates!!!! The first time i put them on it felt as if the boot was uniformed to my foot… I took off after years of not skating.. Yes, i love them over the MOXIE LOLLYs !!! The fit and the wheels were just amazing! I bought a second color..
I love your smooth skating skills. You have inspired me! Please make some training tutorials. Also, that Joji song at the end makes a great skate song.
Completely!!! I feel like turning & maintaining speed have big differences--the vintage ones require more effort! Mine had trucks that were pretty shot haha rusted and the bar the wheel attached to would rotate w/ the wheel a little bit
Great demonstration, I could almost feel the stiffness of the boot in the beginning!! I’m very curious to see a comparison between a vintage skate and these actually, I’ve never seen or worn vintage skates 😳
Wow... everything looks so easy done by you... We want tutorials 😍😍😍 I Will receive my suregrip boarwalk pretty soon... my first experience will be using those beauties..
So kind of you to say!!❤🥺I'm planning on making some videos soon of drills to help level up!! Hope your Boardwalks served you as well as mine served me!! Much love 🤗
i just purchased these and i’m having a hard time figuring out if it’s too small or if it just needs to be broken in. i’m usually a size 7 in women’s and all the reviews said to size down one so i purchase a 5 men’s/6 women’s. the shoe fits length wise and when i’m just sitting around. no pain then. however, it’s a tight fit at the toes when i start moving around in them.
I think by sizing down they just meant to convert your womens size to a men’s, in which case you would be a 6. Maybe that’s why they feel small? You could always try to get them stretched out by a cobbler, I know a lot of people do that
@@ange5567 hey! i've been testing them out for a bit and they feel better. i think i just need to break them in. i went to a skating rink this weekend and was able to skate for about an hour and a half before my feet started hurting. it would hurt after like 10 minutes when i first got them! still not sure if i ordered the wrong size but it seems to be working out for me!
@@kashology nice that’s great to hear! I personally just ordered skates and they turned out to be too small so now I have to send them back so that sucks but I’m excited for my new ones! Best of luck on your skate journey!
@@ange5567 Why do they have to make the skate sizing so patriarchal SMH what goofballs. Yes to the cobbler though!! I had to get my Edea skates widened in the toe box and it helped SO much.
I'd say they are definitely beginner-friendly! Although if you're still not sure whether skating is for you, there are cheaper skates on the market just to test it out. Also keep in mind that the break-in is rough, and that's not true of all skates!! I hope that wouldn't dissuade you from loving skating if it's a bit painful in the beginning!
Yo! I've never skated on impalas, but generally I've heard that impalas aren't the greatest starter skate. But regardless of skate, if you want more manueverability, you can swap out the cushions for softer ones or loosen the trucks (quarter turn at a time, and make sure they are still firmly attached!! I've had a truck fly off on me before haha) hope that helps!
They squeeeezed like hell on the sides of my feet. The Boardwalks are most definitely NOT good for wide feet out of the box!! BUT the suede is quite pliable if you either take them to a cobbler or do a home remedy to stretch the material out
They lasted me about 9 months! However I skated so much (1-3 hours per day, every day), the suede was pretty flimsy and unsupportive by the end. I upgraded to the Edea Classica boot with a Roll Line Dance Plate! Can see a video about that video on my channel :') The stiffer boot makes a big difference! Golden Horse is a more budget friendly, stiff boot as an alternative to these! However, for casual skating, these were great while I had them! Solid mid-tier skate for getting going!
Where do you live? I hear that person with some Jah Cure-Call On Me playing in the background lol I think I'm leaning toward getting these skates tho...my only concern is the stiffness that everyone talks about. I don't know how to skate yet but I wonder if it's going to be uncomfortable...
This is indeed Newport Beach! I've come to learn that stiffness is actually a great thing in a skate--means added support! However the downside of these is definitely that stiffness can make the break-in period a little bit tough!! All around though, I loved these skates! Great value, mid-tier skates!! Hope that helps ❤

Getting new skates is so exciting! But, breaking them in is rough. The Boardwalks are so pretty. 😍
so exciting! yeah, the break-in is NOT fun for these, but they definitely do the job!
I absolutely ❤ these skates!!!! The first time i put them on it felt as if the boot was uniformed to my foot… I took off after years of not skating.. Yes, i love them over the MOXIE LOLLYs !!!

Thank you! Means a lot! What kind of tutorials would you want to see? Anything in particular? And yes!! Joji is constantly in my rotation!!
When I first got my Lollys I still preferred my vintage skates!! Now that I’m used to the Lollys, I realize how much worse the vintage ones skate 😭
Me too! Then I realized that my vintage skates had a longer wheel base and that's why they felt more stable
Completely!!! I feel like turning & maintaining speed have big differences--the vintage ones require more effort! Mine had trucks that were pretty shot haha rusted and the bar the wheel attached to would rotate w/ the wheel a little bit
The wheelbase is shorter so they will take some getting used to but will allow u to be more skilled in the long run.
100000% facts!!
I got my Boardwalks new in the box from Poshmark, and I also had a heck of a time trying to loosen the trucks initially
I loved the video! Literally provided all my serotonin for the day
ah this comment provided all mine for today
Never can you go wrong with sure grip
Great demonstration, I could almost feel the stiffness of the boot in the beginning!! I’m very curious to see a comparison between a vintage skate and these actually, I’ve never seen or worn vintage skates 😳
oooo that's a good idea for a video! might have to research that a little bit more!
I just got boardwalk's today they are my first pair and so far they kinda hurt but I've been in them for multiple hours. I love them though
Great video :) you are both adorable. I would definitely be interested in a video about your vintage skates.
thank you!!! and noted!!! They are beat to hell, but I'll definitely add that video to the queue!
Omg this is the first mission on gta 5! Just ordered my pair and I can’t wait to start skating!!
Oh!!! Hope you are absolutely thriving in your skate journey Ronald!!
@@Darbyshmarby Thank you and I love my skates❤️❤️
@@ronaldbrown4156 amazing!! 😍
I’m so jealous of how amazing you look on skates!😩
It's just practice!!! Keep going ❤❤❤
Wow... everything looks so easy done by you...

May I ask what size did you get? And what your feet size is in CM? Thank you!
Hi what kind of socks do you have on friend
Guuurrrrlllll where you at? California? The sunset beaches are dreamy.
Yes! So Cal !
Not trying to be rude but I think it’s bc where you got it maybe bc I got mine on Amazon and I LOVE them they’re AMAZING
You’re both so cute 🥰 Nice video and good review! 💜
Thank you!!! happy it could be helpful!!

100% the break in is brutal for these!! I ended up loving mine after about a month though--I'm sure they'll continue to cozier & cozier for you!!
@@ange5567 Why do they have to make the skate sizing so patriarchal SMH what goofballs. Yes to the cobbler though!! I had to get my Edea skates widened in the toe box and it helped SO much.
You’re obviously a good skater already!
Aw too kind!! All a matter of practice 🤗 I've definitely leveled up since then too lol hope you are thriving in your skating journey queen!!
i need to know where your pants are from, they seem so comfy!
I believe these pants were from Anne Taylor! technically more business casual, but they are surprisingly comfy haha
Would you say these would be okay for a beginner?
I'd say they are definitely beginner-friendly! Although if you're still not sure whether skating is for you, there are cheaper skates on the market just to test it out. Also keep in mind that the break-in is rough, and that's not true of all skates!! I hope that wouldn't dissuade you from loving skating if it's a bit painful in the beginning!
Yooooooo!
How would you compare the maneuverability in the trucks compared to impala Skates?
Yo! I've never skated on impalas, but generally I've heard that impalas aren't the greatest starter skate. But regardless of skate, if you want more manueverability, you can swap out the cushions for softer ones or loosen the trucks (quarter turn at a time, and make sure they are still firmly attached!! I've had a truck fly off on me before haha) hope that helps!
oh wow you are incredible at skating, im gonna need some tutorials 😩😭
tutorials loading 👀💕
Where did you find the boots were painful for your feet? Mine are also super wide (4 1/4 ") but I heard the boardwalks were good for this??
They squeeeezed like hell on the sides of my feet. The Boardwalks are most definitely NOT good for wide feet out of the box!! BUT the suede is quite pliable if you either take them to a cobbler or do a home remedy to stretch the material out
I love your outfit! Where is it from?
Shirt is Romwe & pants are Anne Taylor
4:56 “Niiiiiiice” 💀🤣
She got skills
🥰🥰
👍👍🤩🤩
can I ask a question. Are these good for women who are overweight some? Or VNLA skates??
You might need to try aluminum plates!
Gliding on clouds “I have no flow!”
sick belt I've never seen one with a hex like that
Thank you! It's my favorite belt haha I've worn it into oblivion! From Romwe in case you're looking for a similar one !
I been riding riedell 265 for years!!! My boardwalks arrive on Monday.
Riedells for indoor and boardwalks outdoor?
I hope they serve you well!!! ❤
I just ordered those!
YES 😍
All three links lead to the same Amazon wheel page. T.T I’ll love to check out your boot~
Oh snap!! Thanks for letting me know 🙏🙏
I am a simple guy. Anybody I see skating I like them.
A phenomenal policy !
I like your thumbnail
❤️❤️❤️
3 years later how are they

Hey hola! Ojalá hicieras videos totalmente en español estaría muuuuy cool, no se, piénsalo 😉🙆🙋.
can't believe we went through that face mask virus trama
Sweet Baby Jesus! The afternoon sun highlighting the curves on this girl is givin' me FEELS! Camera guy is livin' the DREAM!
I know this is an old video but wearing masks outside is/was utterly unnecessary. Also you're adorable 😊
Your comment is unnecessary
@@StellarainnNah, It's informative.
Why is everyone wearing masks outside? Great video!
Thank you! This was pre-vaccines & being extra cautious to not put my older family members at risk ❤
so creepy everyone is wearing face mask
Damn. Beautiful sexy Latina guirrita chula'
Why do you need to use the f word !!
Don't need to, but they fucking want to.
This is a weird fucking comment
