two things!
if u want to skate then quit, i suggest u go to ballz at bangsar or salomon at midvalley and get parts to replace
if u want to skate and not intending to quit, better go buy new or better skate cos nowadays, all the new skate is nicer to skate on...trust me cos i skated on old TRS and new skate....totally different, u can just improve all of the sudden with the new skate
if u have a budget...i have skate to sell...contact me at vincentbso@yahoo.com
regards

haah....vincent the businessman....forever has something to sell.
madcapsule.....how long has it been since u last skated?
lightnings?
gosh...thats frm quite way back!
good luck on skating again. oh btw... i reckons its a better idea to get new skates rather than fix the old ones.. firstly, i dont think you can find proper old rollerblade parts...u can get similar ones..but i dont think its worth the hassle.
secondly...the new ones nowadays arent that expensive...relatively ok ones for 700 onwards.
look at gettin second hand...scout round..u can find really good bargains.

vince and keats have a very good point. if you ar not sure if you are going to stay or get off skating in the end of the day, then i recommend you get a second hand.
if you are going to stick to your old skates, you have a major disadvantage compared to other skates and most probably going to drop the sport all together..... right?
bad skates make you hate skating. skates you like gives you more motivation by day.
all the best.

Depending on what you want to do on ur skate
just rolling around can be done anywhere u want. ur front yard, back yard, porch, toilet, etc
if u want to do grinds and gaps (after brushing up the skating skill), then u can always go to KJ park to learn
and if u want to buy 2nd hand skate, i got leh, contact me via email vincentbso@yahoo.com...cheaper than 700rm just like what keats said.
