I have only had the
"I have only had the Heelys a short time and tried them out twice. They seem to be of good quality and comfortable to wear. I thought I could wear them and walk normally then bust out a cool glide when I desired over suitable ground - this is not the case though. Difficult to walk in them without accidentally activating the wheel so best to have the wheels out while getting to a location, put the wheels in and use them, then remove. However this negates the spontaneous aspect for me. I find them not as fun to use as rollerskates or blades - however I have only practised on them a short time so I may just not have the skill level yet. I wear size 8 shoes and find Heelys a little tighter than the usual fit. I can normally wear thick socks in other shoes but would not be able to in these."
