Best Answer

The term "rollerblades" is actually used interchangeably with inline skates. The largest inline skate dealer in the world is the Rollerblade company and their name has become the common place phrase for inline skates. Think in terms of the phrase kleenex. There is actually a company called Kleenex, and there are other companies that make tissue paper as well. However, most people just say kleenex in place of tissue. The same is done with Coke.

So to ultimately answer your question, rollerblades are like inline skates because rollerblades are inline skates.

Do you need to break in your new rollerblades?

Typically with recreational or fitness rollerblades there is minimal if any break in time needed.

This is due to the boot construction and the increased stiffness for support on the boot.
