Question hey lezly, i've been looking EVERYWHERE trying to find metal grind plates, but haven/t had any luck! all the skate stores hardly sell that stuff anymore and i haven't had any luck online either, can i please help me out!!?
Answer Ivan,
Sorry to say - shops are not selling grind plates anymore. However, this is not the end of the line! There are skates that are sold with grind plates ie: the DT4 & the Point 8 by Rollerblade & the Fatty Pro from K2.
