can these be "street" skates as well as rink?

Yes. I would suggest wearing them one place or the other. But, just check the wheels for pebbles before going to the rink and you should be fine. If there is a problem, you could buy new wheels if needed.

You should never go back and forth between skating indoor and outdoor with your skates. It can be very dangerous. When you are outside your wheels will become very rough and when you go indoors the wheels will not be even. Also, it can damage a wooden skate floor. Outdoor wheels need to be softer to be able to grip outdoor surfaces. A rink floor is more consistent and therefore you need a harder wheel.

Yes, my daughter uses them at the local skating rink and they perform great she loves them.

I'd say they are specifically for driveway/garage/outdoors, and not so much for roller rink.

Yes, you can skate outdoors with them without a problem. However, what I have found in doing so are unsightly scrapes and gouges on the skates from where my daughter has taken a fall on the pavement.

You could but this is not a street hockey set...it is designed for indoor knee hockey so the goals are smaller and lightweight. Personally, my kids would destroy the nets if they played outdoors with street hockey sticks and pucks (the set only includes knee hockey balls and sticks). It is a great set though for anyone looking for an indoor knee hockey set...highly recommend!

I think they would do just fine ice skating. They may not always stand up to rough asphalt, but ice is much more forgiving. I don't see why not!

Depends on what you want them for. They're not truly functional as skates, and the lock on the wheels doesn't work well. If you really want your grandson to skate, you might want to pony up for real skates. But for a relatively inexpensive starter skate, its OK.

You can use the frame for outside, you will want outdoor wheels and a skate key to change the wheels though.

I gave them as a gift to our three year old grandson; he skates in the kitchen floor right now, but I am sure he will be able to use them outdoors when the weather gets warmer; they seem to be made out of a hard plastic, but for a three year old, out door play would not be out of order, he loves them; I hope this helped;

I honestly didn't know there were different skates for outdoor and indoor use. I thought you could use them anywhere. With that said, I've only skated out on the streets, on sidewalks, and I had no trouble with them.

Not likely. We have only allowed our daughter on the sidewalk but our street is textured and these skates may do ok as they are made well but for a child learning to skate they would not be very sturdy for them in a street. Hope this helps:-)

The wheels on the Roller Derby Boys Laser skates will work for both indoor and outdoor usage. Skateboard wheels will most likely fit on these skates, but would not be recommended.

We have not used them outside. Only at the roller rink. They are very good quality so I think you could use them on the sidewalk/driveway.

Yes- the skates have a hard toe and good ankle protection, even for a goalie.

Yes. My niece does. She also wears them at the skating rink. They are very smooth wheels so if they are learning make sure they wear protective gear. Hope this helps

These take the standard 608 bearings with most modern skates. If you have the mini-bearings of old...there are still new wheels out there for mini-bearings, but you may have to find them on other inline-skate specific sites. Good Luck.

I think you're correct. Not saying for sure but I'd try it. You can always return. They are good ice skates and I think she will be happy with them -- my twin granddaughters love them! Hope my answer helps you.
