I'm thinking about buying inline figure skates for the upcoming summer, so I can bridge the time when the ice rinks are closed and paractise with the inlines. Unfortunately, there is nothing like a roller rink in my town and it's surrounding towns, where I could skate on a suitable ground. I could only skate on streets, parking areas and so on. I tried this last year with normal quad roller skates and it was a catastrophe. I felt every small stone under the rolls, every little hole in the asphalt, nothing worked there. So I was wondering if it would work better with inline figure skates? At least, you have less contact to the ground compared to the big, wide quad rolls...
Since the ice rink is closed for 7 months (*cries desperately*) I really want to use the inlines to work on my skating skills, paractising spins, jumps and so on, but the skates cost very much and I only want spend that money when I know that it's possible to professionally paractise inline figure skating on streets too.
I don't want to pay at least 380€ and then find out that figure skating with inlines on streets are the same catastrophe as with quads....
It would be great to hear about your experiences with this issue.
