HELP! Need to buy some new rollerblades

[Yzzim]

OK, I haven't bought new rollerblades for about 4 years now. My last ones were from Rollerblade (the company) and had ABEC 3 bearings. I like them a lot but they sound like sh#t cause I haven't changed the bearings or the wheels.

So I've gotta buy new.

But which ones? And where? I've been out of the loop for a while and they've got totally new bearings ABEC 7 Q) and now BSB Swiss and Titanium (?) plus many more I'm sure.

I'm looking to spend between $200 and $300 for new blades. Only use them for recreational (aka - no rail jumping or whatever) and the faster I can go with them the better

BTW, I've been looking around at The Sports Authority but have no idea what I'm looking for.

I like my Roces. Becarful though, going from POS Rollerblades to a good pair is like night abd day. I practically had to relearn how to skate.

I have Roces, too. But don't worry about the boot so much. Just buy new wheels for the boots you have, unless they are unconfortable or something.

I have a pair of bauer. Its about 2 or so years old but I like them..
they are heavy though.. newer ones seem to be a lot lighter.

I'd like to have a new boot though...my current one is pretty heavy and my feet sweat sooooo much in them.

foot sweat - yum yum
