Where can you find Rollerblades in the Philippines?
As if I didn’t learn my lesson the last time, I bought yet another item online. This pretty little thing is my new sport, hobby, or whatever else you want to call it. All I know is I hope to someday (this year maybe?) be able to jump off a flight of stairs with it.
Finding these Kit Alphas wasn’t easy at all.
I scoured through all the major sports houses in Metro Manila (even at that Persian dude’s sporting goods store in Greenhills), but couldn’t find the brand I was looking for. The high end bikeshops in Cartimar? They didn’t have any. They told me they used to sell it about 5 or 6 years ago. Even R.O.X. didn’t sell any.
I was just fortunate enough to find this sparingly used pair online. The guy who sold it to me bought it in Singapore, and was selling it because his wife coerced him into getting one even though he wasn’t into it at all.
If you see some 6 foot tall dude trying to keep his balance in UP or The Fort, then it’ll probably me. But seriously, where can anyone find a decent pair of Rollerblades in the Philippines?

Hi! I recently got a Roller Derby Proline 900 from Toby’s in Megamall. I’m new to roller blading and I’m not sure if this is what you can call a decent pair :p Would u know any good location to roller blade? You mentioned the Fort and UP. Any particular place there? Would u also know any place near San Juan City or Mandaluyong? Thanks!
