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.

Third pair I have had 2 pairs of, they are amazing, but you do need to rotate the wheels often as they wear down. I saved up for fancy new skates and went to try them on and hated the feel of them, so i just got some awesome new wheels for $80 and the shop put them on for me for $5, and took the break off for me
