I do some Fubar. As in bike buying, get a decent pair if you're going to get them. Wal-Mart skates are like their bikes. I got a pair of Bauer's a couple years ago. Look at the ABEC rating of the bearings. I think mine are ABEC 3's. Even an ABEC 1 is way better than some of the bearings on skates I've seen at Wally World. They will roll unbelieveably better than the standard bearings.
