I don't think they beat the 2 wheeled skates on: http://www.crosskate.com ,
They have steering in the front wheel like the Dirtsurfer and Grassboard!

and don't ever get the idea of using your regular blades on concrete ground!

we tried quite a while ago, but you still can see the scars!

Oh, yes, it can be done.

BTW: does anyone have drawings of home made "big" skeelers?

Hi!
There is another type of inline!
For me the most important is to keep the GP as low as possible!
Weels used there, the kids bike app. 30cm diameter!
For me used from 1998!
Have fun!

By 3 wheeled do you mean Rollerblade Coyotes? I have both them and also Rockville Street Feet. I like the brake mechanism on the Coyotes as you can use it when kiteblading (I personally use my kite to brake) and it it doesn't need to be removed like on the Rockville's. The Coyote's are more in-line skate like and the Rockvilles have a bit of a snow ski feel.

Unfortantely Coyote's were discontinued but still may be found in limited sizing on eBay at times.
