Ice hockey to inline hockey help
My 8 year old son has been ice skating for a few years and completed his first season of ice hockey this past spring. He's decent at ice skating but still needs to build up his confidence. I'm starting to feel that his beginner skates are holding him back a bit and he's ready to upgrade.... That being said, he's signed up for his first season of inline hockey this fall.
I'm at a loss as to what inline skates to get him and bearings and wheels.
On ice, he's currently using Bauer XLP skates. He prefers the way they fit vs ccm(the only brands he's tried)
We bought him a pair of Walmart inline skates but he seems sluggish in them. I believe because he needs better bearings. Any suggestions?
From my Google searching, I was planning on putting abec 7 bearings on whatever skates I get him. Any thoughts?
