They are called Landrollers - LandRoller - Skates | Inline Skates | Rollerblade | Roller Skates | Skates for sale...

So I have researched them and purchased a pair - cant wait to get them. Anybody try these yet?? With all the stories here lately about dogs being attacked, Im no longer going to the dog park and Im gonna exercise Sebastian (and myself) with these instead. Because of my arthritic knees, walking him on pavement can be very painful, and these are low impact and very smooth on rough surfaces. If anybody has any personal experience or knows of someone who does, Id love to get more information before they get here. I still have to buy helmet and pads but otherwise, Im ready and eager.

I have trouble staying upright walking my 2, if I had some of those I could see myself being dragged face down in the mud

I got em off ebay for 129 US$ plus $54 for shipping from South Korea. The ones from the actual company are going for 199 and up!. I am guessing they are either made in South Korea or someone over there is buying in huge bulk - but they are the same model and everything. Ill definitely let you know how they are when we get to try em out.

I have to laugh..... because when I clicked on the link... I have to say, I'm not so sure it is the skates necessarily getting that bikini chica "noticed"...

Anywho..... If you get them, let us know how they are! I always enjoyed my rollerblades... but I wouldn't rollerblade with Lex though! I did ride with her on the bike, and ski-jouring is worth checking out! We are determined to do more of that this year!

Keep us updated on how you do.

i would be interested, but giving my inability to roller blade or skate, i think its a bad plan.

These are designed in such a way that they are far more stable and easy to use. I have roller bladed and ice skated so I will report back the comparison.

I have to say they look a bit uncomfortable though as the wheels are on the side of the shoe, is it really centred and well balanced?
I would like a pair if the shoe had 4 wheels lmao
