The rave of the rink is back and will have you gliding around with the grace of a bird in the sky. Step up to the Raven skate and experience a new level of comfort and precision performance. Featuring the same 120 boot as the Mustang skate, the Raven employs an aluminum plate to cut weight and increase responsiveness so you can feel the accuracy of your moves. Larger diameter Varsity 62mm wheels with KwiK ABEC-9 bearings that roll smoothly are the finishing touches to a skate that provides exceptional performance and value.

Comments about Riedell 120 Raven Womens Artistic Roller Skates 2011:
i skate a few times a week, just got back into it. never had my own wheels, but this skate is very nice. the wheels the raven came with are very fast. i like the bearings, so if you want to go fast, this is your vehicle. because the raven had a taller wheel (62 mm) i am able to order an outdoor wheel that the skate is already set up for. i had to loosen the trucks a bit and that helped my balance to be 100% better. while i like the classic women's skate look, i wish this skate was a bit lower cut for myself. the leather on this skate is heavy, very nicely padded, and seems snug as far as width goes, but i am hoping this will loosen up to form fit to my foot like a glove, or sock! (i wear an average width) sizing seems to be true to size. i wear a size 8 in every shoe and this fit great. i have been using a leather conditioner pretty heavy to soften the leather and this has helped the break in process considerably. i personally would recommend this skate to anyone looking to get a great quality skate that i am sure will last a long time. seems it is very well made. the trucks are nylon, which is a bit lighter, and probably durable enough for the everyday casual skater. i don't do jumping or anything like that. the price was a reasonable investment, midrange. i got a great skate without spending $800. looking forward to enjoying these for many years.
