There's nothing quite like the feeling of gliding across a smooth indoor rink, wheels humming beneath you as you weave and turn. But if you've ever owned a pair of skates that needed weeks of painful break-in time, you know that feeling can take forever to achieve. The VNLA Junior Stealth Jam Skates solve that problem completely—strap them on and you're ready to skate, no blisters or sore spots required.
At the heart of these jam skates are the Vanilla Backspin Stealth wheels, measuring 62mm with 93A hardness. That's the sweet spot for indoor surfaces—hard enough to maintain momentum and speed, soft enough to grip when you need to make quick turns or sudden stops. Pair those wheels with ABEC-9 bearings (some of the fastest you'll find in this category), and you've got a setup that keeps your momentum going without constant pushing.
The Vanilla Gorilla nylon plate might sound like a funny name, but it's serious engineering. With upgraded aluminum trucks featuring micro-adjustable lock nuts and 8mm axles, you get precise control over your ride. The 5-degree action angle provides increased stability, which matters whether you're jam skating routines or just learning to cruise confidently.
The improved Vanilla Boot is where comfort really shines. The softness and durability have been dialed in to give you support without the stiffness that typically requires weeks of break-in time. The matte black color scheme, combined with tough denim and leather exterior, looks sleek at the rink while standing up to regular use.
While these skates come setup for indoor rinks, the versatile design means you can easily swap in a set of outdoor wheels and take your skating beyond the rink. Jam skating, rhythm skating, or recreational cruising—these skates handle it all without the restrictions of more specialized equipment.
For skaters who want to spend more time rolling and less time breaking in new gear, the VNLA Stealth delivers the kind of ready-to-skate performance that gets you back to doing what you love: moving fast, turning tight, and enjoying every lap around the rink.
