Depending on the type, they can have from one to six on one boot. one wheel - special, single giant wheel often very soft. two wheel - Usually for aggressive skating, leaves space in the middle for grinding. three wheel - Usually used on child skates, and child speed training skates. four wheel - the most popular kind, used for speed, aggresive, recreational and freestyle. Five wheel - usually for speed and downhill skating. Six wheel - Seen on the Lotus frames, for downhill skating. *I've seen one with 8 wheels, but it was made with two frames screwed to one boot, and was probably just for fun.
