What People Are Saying
If you’re like me, and most other online consumers, you want to read the reviews. I can tell you that this skate is great for the skater who only goes out once a week to one who skates 4+ times a week with bouts. The Roller Derby GS 3000 is comfortable right out of the box and the wheels are great on turns. Also, the price point is a big plus. This Roller Derby skate at most retail locations is priced at $65, which is not bad at all for the beginner. A few recommendations from some skaters are to add toe guards and gel inserts. (Not everyone’s foot is the same, after all)
