So I build my dream skates with the best of everything for figure skating. They are barely broken in. Now I have discovered roller derby. So after spending almost a grand on these I don't want to start all over again. I love the control and ease of skating with these but not sure how they will convert to derby. I was thinking of getting new boots and wheels and possibly using them. Thoughts?

I also have Rollerbones Super Elite wheels with ceramic bearings. They are 101A. The guys I skate with use 95-97A. Would these be too hard for derby?
