Would the be suitable for ice skating?

You should be able to. I wear them snowboarding so I don't move my legs as much but it's not very constricting.

Have'nt had a chance to use them yet as we are having a drought here in California.

I think they would do just fine ice skating. They may not always stand up to rough asphalt, but ice is much more forgiving. I don't see why not!

Yes, you can skate outdoors with them without a problem. However, what I have found in doing so are unsightly scrapes and gouges on the skates from where my daughter has taken a fall on the pavement.

yes! very good o ice. Just enough traction. If you have snow pack on top too, they will pack snow but clean out very quickly. They never slip off of my Bogs and are easily cleaned of mud/ice with the tap of a wooden stick or broom handle. I just leave them on my ice fishing boots year round.

It doesnt matter how small the board bones 100's will be great for them. The 52 mm wheels are a great size for casually or seriously skating. If the deck is a cruiser get 56-58 mm is my advice.

I depends on how far you are zoomed in are. If you have about half the rink in view if would probably work fine. Also, it depends on how fast they play with the back and forth. The rotating head is made for smooth moving film shots and clicking left and right rapidly to follow fast action just won't be that functional.

I bought this pair for my daughter but the figure skating instructors said this kind of skates are not very efficient because since they are adjustable the blade and the inside of the skate messes up with the balance of the skater. This was brought to my attention many times for different instructors so I gave them away and bought the white leather pair specific for figure skating. Hope this helped

Melissa, I think that they would probably be protective enough for ice skating. They are pretty well padded, they just don't have a hard plastic cap either inside them or on the outside. I think that you would have a fine time using them. They fit snug so keep that in mind but I used them for mountain biking, slow downhill and they worked good. The eight part that you see on the outside is pretty thick neoprene and that is the protection factor. The other thing is that if you take a really hard fall in them or any other pad, you are going to feel it in my experience. My thought is that they are a really solid pad and would probably protect you in fine fashion for ice skating.good luck and take care,Eoin Melissa, I think that they would probably be protective enough for ice skating.

If you remain aware of your surroundings, then yes! On smooth surfaces without snow or ice your feet could become unstable. They are so easily removed & reinstalled it really shouldn't be necessary to keep them on, although I have worn them numerous times in grocery stores, etc. without difficulty.

Hmmm my kids don't really skate outside because our driveway is too rough, but I don't see why you couldn't. I like these skates a lot, actually I have a pair for both of my daughters and myself because I liked them so much. They take them to the rink or skate around the house. If we have a smoother driveway, I'm sure they would skate outside with them too.

I'm going to say yes. The skates are true to size however, they are quite stiff and rigid too. My daughter wears a size 11 and I ordered an 11 and they fit fine. If you do order a little bigger, they may last a little longer than just 1 season too.

There should be no reason why not, however, I never did because I purchased these as training skates for balance and to help my 4yr old granddaughter feel more comfortable on the ice... not for long distance skating... just to make sure she didn't hurt her ankles so early in the learning process... Happy to report she now runs on the ice, no longer needs to hold mommy's hand and this year is graduating to single blade skates!

Yes you can... I installed them in my skates, and love them.... These are very fast, after you break them in, they are VERY fast!!!!

These skates are sized for men. Also, they run true to size, so buy your correct size.

yes! I ordered them for my wife who is a recreational skater. Ignore all the hardcore skater reviews.. These are perfect for going out and skating a couple of times a week.

Both of my children have a pair of this brand of skates and neither one of them has ever taken them to the rink. They wear them inside the house sometimes but mostly outside on the sidewalks and street. Neighbor kids have worn them so they have gotten a lot of use for the past year! I imagine the wheels would be better if they were rink only but we didn't purchase them for that. We just wanted them to have a good skate and also had something to do OUTSIDE! :-)

I used them for ice and they worked great. I was totally confident I would not slip. I think they are made for ice.

I bought them to use at the rink, but are more outdoor, the grip on the wheels seemed to rubbery for the rink and made it hard to skate in there!
