    Quads would be easier to learn on - there's that little bit more stability. Don't get them too cheap though - the wheels on cheap skates tend to be hard PVC, which don't give much grip (and aren't very comfortable to skate on) and they have cheap, rough bearings. If you want her to enjoy skating and not give it up in two weeks, try to get softer polyurethane wheels and at least ABEC 1 rated bearings.

    I had a look at the site u intend to order from.The prices are very good..just have a look at the small print too see if the free delivery offer includes Ireland and dont forget about the exchange rate.Do a search in google too see what else is out there first,would be way cheaper to order from a euro country or even the states!!
