Quad skates? or inline?

i want to learn to skate better and i was wondering which type of skates are better for doing tricks. currently i have inline skates but cant do much more than go forward and stop.

Quad skates? or inline?
It depends on what %26quot;tricks%26quot; you want to do.





Anything in the agressive area, inlines.


Spinning in place, quads





Skating backwards, slalom, and dance moves can be done by either one. If you look at the european competition videos (they do a lot more of this than in the US), you will see many more people on inlined but a lot of quads also.


People who compete will go to whatever works best for them and aparently each type of skates works best for different people.
Reply:Quad skates. My family owns a roller rink, and I have to say from my experience you can do a lot more things on quads than inline. With quads its easy to spin and keep your balance while going into other tricks. Hope this helps.
Reply:I learn from in line and it took me about 1 month to grind and i taught my little sister on the same skate%26#039;s and see got better than i was in less than a few weeks,
