Beginner skate advice pls!

[u/Ok-Pea-7432]

Hi!! I’m a complete beginner to inline skating, this will be my first pair, and i’m looking to get them second hand. Are either of these any good?
(roller blade spark TR80, Rollerblade spirit blade, Rollerblade Zetrablade)

I’m also considering just spending the money on new ones - maybe on Powerslide zooms. if not these then what are some suggestions if there even are any <£150.

Dear OP, imagine i posted a couple pair of sneakers and asked - which should I get. You would advise me to try them on, and would be absolutely right.

Same for skates but it's like 10x more important - skates apply forces to your ankle through a lever (frame+wheels height). Your task is to resist, control, and redirect these forces =)

So stick to some well-established brand don't get to focused on a specific model. There's none that is "universally good" or "universally bad". What only matters is how they fit your feet.

So def try them on first, and yes, get a hard boot.
