About this deal

Mia didn’t start roller-skating until she was 11 years old, when her sister got a pair of skates for her birthday and they started going to the skating rink together. I would probably try and attempt to get the highest flip now. Since I got the longest flip over people I think it would be awesome to attempt the highest flip too!” The incredible stunt earned the then-15-year-old, from California, USA, the record for most people barani flipped over from a quarter pipe on roller skates. At the super-young age of 15, Mia Peterson of California, USA set the record for the most people barani flipped over from a quarter pipe on roller skates, which is... 12! 🤯 Well, Mia used to spend hours practising every day. And now, as a busy 16-year-old, even though she has less free time, she still manages to skate a few times a week.

Then one day, Mia’s friend Jake suggested that she try to flip over him while he lay on the ground. She took some persuading but, within a few days, she was flipping over nine people in a row. From the time I started roller skating I always dreamed of being able to do a flip on skates. […] One day at the skate park I was determined to land a front flip. I told my friends that I wanted to try to front flip and they all gathered around the quarter pipe to watch me." Because I am flipping over people and I can’t really bail out or have an unsuccessful attempt, because I could be endangering someone.”

What Are Moxi Roller Skates?

I was usually pretty confident in my attempts, but I always knew my limit. I would never try and push it and see if I could go farther than I knew I could. From the time I started roller skating I always dreamed of being able to do a flip on skates. […] One day at the skate park I was determined to land a front flip. I told my friends that I wanted to try to front flip and they all gathered around the quarter pipe to watch me.

Depending on the Moxi model, the skates may be made from materials including a genuine leather or slightly more affordable animal-friendly materials. Some designs also have a vinyl boot, cushioned with ankle padding, while you may also appreciate an ergonomically designed collar for extra comfort. But whichever you choose, you can be sure comfort is at the top of the manufacturer’s priority list. She was nervous at first, and didn't succeed on her first try, but once she did it, it was like a dream come true! Contrary to what you might think, Mia didn’t start roller-skating until she was 11 years old. That year, her sister got a pair of skates for her birthday and they decided to go to the skating rink together. When I first attempted a flip on roller skates I tried it into a foam pit,” Mia told us. “I got really comfortable with them into a foam pit and then onto an airbag. When I was confident with my rotation and the flip, I would start attempting them on cement. When we asked her what her source of inspiration was, she told us: “All the skaters around me really inspire me. [They] really pushed me. […] Watching them improve and work hard inspires me more than anything!”
