Hi All,

I am hoping for some advice / feedback on where to buy
some Inline Goal Skates for my son. He is a mad Ice Hockey Fan,
however there is not much call for that in Australia, so he plays
Inline and believe it or not it is more economical to
buy the skates in the US and have them shipped over.
So if anyone can offer some ideas I would be appreciative.

can you repeat the same in English???

I never heard of this sport before
;-)))

hehehe

Sorry Serge I sometimes forget, and just fall back to Australianisms.
Inline Hockey is the equilivent to Ice Hockey without the Ice, the players wear Inline Roller Skates and play on rollerskating rinks.
I should have probabily clarified it by saying Inline Roller Hockey perhaps ?
as I am not sure what it is called in the states
:)

It's called roller hockey here too :)

Sorry I can't help on a skate source though... My kids got theirs through a local skate shop....

Doesn't the roller rink have a skate shop that can bring them in for him ?

Look on ebay? I look for everything there hehe. He can have mine. I only used them once and about killed myself hehe.

this what you are looking for?

Goalie skates are a bit different. they are just flatter, more for balance standing still and side to side motion instead of forward / back. They also let you be a little closer to the ground i think to not allow the ball or puck to get below your pads as you are standing.


This is the link to the online store.
