    yeah they are the ones with the frames that come off,thought they did pop off though, u have to twist them off or something though. i saw some1 before that had them they looked like normal blades but he just twisted off the bottom to get onto a train,looked really handy. is skate city down beside issello towers side of temple bar or up close to the motorbike bar?

    I love rollerblades, they rule, must get back into them some day:)

    You're in luck... maybe... There are over 12,000 pairs on Ebay so I didn't search throuigh them all, I tried searches like:
    rollerblade detachable
    rollerblade clip off
    rollerblade clip on
    rollerblade clip

    all no results...

    then I tried

    rollerblade removable

    and got two results!

    nope but thanks, i have does a good bit of looking into this now and have found 1 solution, they are called hypno skates, and as far as i know are only available to buy in america,italy,france and a few other countries but there is 1 online store that will be opening soon at http://www.hypnoskates.com/
    and you can get a coupon at www.lifestylefitnessco.com for that site if you give them ur e-mail address. only thing is that their distribution facility is actually located in Canada so it will cost a fortune to get them over here.
