- i'm interested in buying some "inline skates" (i think
- that's what the generic name for them is), and i'm
- thinking about getting "switch-its" (sp?).
-
- they're the brand which lets you pop off the rollers
- and pop on ice skating blades, so you can use the
- same boots for either sport.
-
- does anyone out there have any experience with the
- switch-its brand, or with rollerblades, or (best yet)
- know the comparative merits and disadvantages of these
- two brands--or any others?
-
- if possible please respond via e-mail ... news-
- reading facilities here have been flaky lately.
- i'll summarize to the net if there's any interest.
-
- thanks,
