Riedell R3 Derby Skates
The Riedell R3 Skate is a perfect combination of performance and value for juniors and beginners to skating and has subsequently entrenched itself as one of the most popular skates for those two groups. The R3 boot is made from tough, durable vinyl that holds its shape well and can take the beatings beginners will throw its way. The Thrust Plate is lightweight but lacks the rigidity needed for better performance - often times this is the primary reason R3 skaters want to upgrade after a year or so. Cayman Wheels are an entry-level speed wheel that will be fine for rink skates and your first derby practices but like the plate, higher quality should be sought as you advance your skating level.
