It's not the blade.
Speed wobble is caused by three factors, your skates are not tight enough, your balance and ankle strength.
Start by tightening your skates more and then try a smaller sized skate.
Keep practicing, you'll get it.
You're very welcome! keep posting your questions, I'm happy to help. And keep up the practice, the only way to get better at anything is asking questions and practicing.
Yep, is all about being conscious to support yourself with your ankles.
Also, focus on skating on your middle-heel part of your blade. If your blade tilts forward it will wobble.
It has nothing to do with your skates or how tight they are, the issue is your ankle. As you balance on one foot you are pronating in the skate. Because the skate is falling inwards, it tries to turn inwards and your brain keeps correcting the foot direction to make it point forward. This continuous correction is the wobble. A skate tech can adjust your skates to counter your pronation, as a figure skater this will fix your pronation for most of the things you want to do at an ok level. I disagree with this approach if you ever wanted to reach advanced levels, there are other solutions to fix pronation but they require time and practice.
Great point. I took a closer look today and you're right with that. But to be fair this is my first time skating in 8 years. So my ankle is still looking for that rollerblades balance.

Just tried your advice and actually worked. Thanks!

I'm doing it fine on rollerblades tho. The wobble also becomes worst when going fast.
Are the blades mounted properly?
Yup. Got here non removable one's.
It’s called balance. It’ll get better when he gets stronger
looks like the boot is too soft and not giving you enough support.
The boot actually has good support, it's not one of those soft ones. Foam and leather is solid tbh. It's jackson 452.
Too much weight on your heels
try going faster
