they're plastic plates about the size of the ones on the weapons. fun to mess around on, and feel like shoes.

I used to have a pair in 6th grade too, they used to have a site like soapshoes.com or something, but it shut down a couple years ago. I dont know if they still make them, but they were fun to mess around with

Yeah....soaps are cool..I had a pair when they first came out. But BE AWARE....It is VERY easy to snap an ankle if you are not careful. I seen a couple people doin handrails come off it wierd an SNAP!!! there goes the ankle. Just something to think about. Its a lot harder to run out of a rail than it is to roll or slide.Know what I mean ;)
