Made with alluminium rails, 26 cm diameter wheels (7,5 cm large).
I will test them next week on the beach!!

Great job! Very clean appearance. If you experience that the aluminum rails are too flexible (twisting between the wheels or bending behind the heel), replace them with steel. Some skaters have used aluminum to save weight, but except for transport, weight is an advantage regarding speed and traction.

Have fun and welcome to kiteskating!
Post some action pics once you are rolling.
