SIMS Street Snakes wheels are back


SIMS Street Snakes wheels are back
After years of (not so) patiently waiting, SIMS roller skate wheels are back on the market.
The original SIMS wheels were a must-have for any old-school skater. Unfortunately due to some reason or another, I’ve heard many different stories over the years, SIMS wheels were discontinued. That meant that if you needed to replace your set of SIMS, you couldn’t! The only place up until recently you could find original SIMS wheels were on forums or auction sites. Although because of their rarity they would cost an arm and a leg.

That was until now. Re-released and better than ever, SIMS Street Snakes wheels are back.
Just as you remember them! Or if you’re too young, trust me, they’re the best.
They’re back in the UK. Measuring 62mm and offering amazing grip thanks to the 78A durometer. Thanks to Shiner Ltd for bringing them back
I’m one happy roller skater……

Roller Derby Trans 400 Kids Roller Skates
Right then, how about we take a look at the Roller Derby Trans 400 adjustable kids skates. These roller skates are available in white/lilac or blue/grey and offer added value for money as they are an adjustable skate with three sizes for the price of one.

The boot has a hard shell with a high ankle support for maximum protection for little ones. These roller skates also offer a “deluxe comfort removable liner”, sounds good huh?

With three sizes for the price of one, it is ideal for younger, first-time roller skaters. However, depending on your budget it may be worth spending a few extra pounds and looking for an adjustable skate with four sizes for the price of one.

That said, the Roller Derby Trans 400 roller skate for boys and girls is an ideal introductory quad skate. The ability to adjust the skates as your child’s feet grow, the solid nature of the boot and the high ankle support make this a very good kids roller skate.

The Most Effective Weight Loss Programs

Here are the three top weight loss programs out there.

The Most Effective Weight Loss Programs

Fat Loss 4 Idiots. Despite the derogatory title, this weight loss program really works. Maybe it doesn’t deliver the promised 9 pounds off in 11 days, but you will lose around 3 to 5, if you follow this diet. Unlike dangerous crash diets, the Fat Loss 4 Idiots diet is based on the much underrated concept of eating real meals, but shifting them around to increase your metabolism. You’re made to choose a diet plan on their online diet generator, with all your favorite food spread out over three meals each day for 11 days. You’re actually supposed to eat four meals a day, with the last meal being either fruit or vegetables.

Why this works: You eat healthy and regularly, but your body continuously shifts its metabolism rate to accommodate the new meal system, making you burn calories faster. They also give constant reminders to healthy living such as drinking more water and maximizing walking as exercise. You should definitely continue the diet beyond 11 days for long term results.

The Biggest Loser Club. Yes, that’s that reality show on TV. The Club is the fat loss program that is based on what you see on the show, where each contestant is given a weight loss program specific to their body type. The actual non-TV weight loss program adds in lifestyle and goals to fit each “club member.” The reason why The Biggest Loser Club is so great is because it is custom tailored to fit you. You get a free diet profile based on your weight, height, gender and age, and once you sign up, you get daily meal plans and recipes and your very own fitness program. You also get to chat with stars from the show, especially trainer Bob Harper.

Why this works: Well, you saw them lose weight on TV. Even if you’re not in a contest for public consumption, you’re bound to see results as well.

Burn The Fat, Feed The Muscle. Sounds like a bodybuilder’s diet plan, and it’s written by an actual former bodybuilder, but it can apply to anyone. It’s a rather lengthy E-book that describes in detail what you can eat, and at what frequency, to properly augment your exercise regime, burning fat and feeding the muscle in the process. It guides the reader in setting realistic weight loss goals, explains why starvation diets do not work, and emphasizes building the muscle because this is what truly burns fat and keeps you slim.

Why this works: This is the right way to lose weight, with no side effects and all the optimum results to a healthy life. If you’re looking for a faster way to lose weight, this is not for you, but it is if you want to keep the fat off and have a body always ready for physical activity for the long term.

This is not a list of the most popular diets, these are the best weight loss programs you can find online. Now, the next step is deciding which is the best weight loss program that’s right for you.

Magic look sluggish early in season


The Orlando Magic have gotten off to a 2-2 start after their close win against the Bulls last night. They beat the Bulls 96-93 behind Dwight Howard’s 22 pt/15 rb and five others scoring in double digits. Howard has stated that he intends to get a double double in every game this season, an achievable yet somewhat lofty goal, and has backed up that statement thus far. 

The Magic are going through a small transition after losing Keyon Dooling to the Nets in free-agency and are giving JJ Reddick his shot to prove himself in the aftermath. Reddick has no more excuses and needs to perform better than he’s shown, two points on free throws and no field goals in four games. Courtney Lee got his first action last night and looked like a rookie is supposed to. He should develop this year off the bench and there isn’t too much pressure being put on him to make any impact. 

The keys for this team’s success this year hinge on Rashard Lewis becoming tougher defensively and being more consistent offensively, Hedo maintaining his presence as a scoring threat and Mickael Pietrus becoming the big time two guard the Magic so desperately need. Pietrus doesn’t need to become Kobe Bryant, but he needs to at least be more aggressive from that spot. His defense and his perimeter shooting are the reasons the Magic signed him, but his athleticism is what can make this team a power in the East. 

The bench also needs to step up. Reddick, Bogans and company have looked below average so far and that’s not going to get it done. Bogans finally had a decent game off the bench last night with 13 pt/5 rb, yet had struggled before that. With Pietrus developing, Nelson and Lewis’ inconsistency and Howard being the defensive focus of other teams, Bogans/Anthony Johnson/Reddick need to give this team points off the bench. I believe these are just early season transgressions and think Bogans and Johnson will contribute as expected, Reddick I’ve always doubted, so we’ll just wait and see.

Supreme Turbo Roller Skates

Where to start with this awesome skate? Old school roller skaters will look at this and think they’ve seen a ghost…. This beauty of a skate has been designed to look just like the all-time classic, grand-daddy of them all, the Bauer Turbo.

Roller Skates

Fans of the original Bauer Turbo roller skate would have been devastated to hear the announcement that they were being discontinued. A staple of the roller skate market for many years, wearers, who quickly became fans, loved the feel and the look of the original Bauer. As they are no longer being made, and only a few being available second-hand on a well-known auction website, what is a Bauer-mad roller skater to do?

Well from the ashes comes the roller skating phoenix. THE SUPREME TURBO 33.

I’ve been skating for about 20 years (I’m getting quite tired now, maybe I should have a break……) and I’ve had loads of roller skates. Many with their good points, and believe me many with their bad points. Let me tell you, I LOVED my Bauer Turbo’s. To me they were by far the best skates I‘d ever used. The only problem was after years (and years…….wow, I’m really starting to feel old now), numerous replacement wheels and bearings, tragically they perished.

I had many failed experiments with ‘rebound’ skates, but alas I could not replace my Bauer’s. That was until I tried the Supreme Turbo 33 roller skates.

Initially of course I was impressed by their looks but I was sceptical about the performance. Sure they look like Bauer’s but are they as good?

THEY’RE BETTER!!!!!

To begin with I had Kryptonics Cruise 62 wheels and ABEC 5 bearings on my Supreme’s. These were great. Smooth and precise, everything you could hope for. Well that was until the re-issue of the SIMS Street Snakes wheels.

The new SIMS wheels have the same grippy awesomeness as before but are now made using better quality polyurethane, meaning they’re going to last longer. I’m well chuffed!!!

I’ve finally replaced my Bauers. My Supreme’s with new SIMS wheels are my new love.

If anyone were looking to buy roller skates, and buy the best, then these are the ones. The best of the best

At last, my legs are complete again.

Quick Weight Loss Diet

Dieting can be a difficult task. Many people that are dieting have been down the yo-yo dieting road or they have tried many different types of fad diets. No matter what route you take to loose weight, you can be sure that you, as well as all the other dieters out there, are looking for the same thing and that is quick weight loss. Many people try different approaches for quick weight loss and one of those approaches is a rapid weight loss pill.


As with any diet supplement there are both good sides as well as bad sides and you need to look at all aspects of a quick weight loss diet pill before you being to take it. Every diet pill claims to offer the best in its ingredients as well as the most rapid weight loss. What they neglect to tell you in their advertisement is that many of the products are packed with caffeine. While caffeine is a diuretic and will boost your energy it is not by all means a good way to loose weight.

Many of these pills that have caffeine as their main ingredient will make you jittery and when the pill wears off you may find that you go through withdrawals and get shaky. These types of diet pills also claim to curb your hunger. That is good if the pill is from natural substances and just curbs your appetite. You do not want to go with the pills that take away your appetite all together. It is important to give your body the nutrients that it needs to stay healthy.

A quick weight loss program will monitor your weight loss every step of the way. Many of these programs can be used for children as well that are battling with weight problems. These programs can help you in so many different ways such as; diet plans that are tailored to each individual, monitored exercise programs to help you get the most out of your workouts and meal planning to help you meet your goals. They offer support groups for their members to help them stay on track.

You can combine rapid weigh loss pills with a quick weight loss program and have yourself monitored while using the medication to be sure that you are where you need to be with your health. As with any type of diet, you want to be sure to check with your doctor prior to starting any quick weight loss program or using any type of rapid weight loss pill. There are some medications that can be altered when you change your diet and/or add in other supplements. Dieting can be much easier if you have a program to follow. It helps you to take the guess work out of what you can and cannot eat and helps to keep you on track.
