Rollerbladers
After not skating for sixteen years, I decided to end my skating with my roots. I used to skate on conventional skates with really narrow trucks and I did a lot of flips and stuff, but these new skates are so fun. I pretty much just grind, but it is so fun. I think I am back on my rollerskates out of respect for our community. I sold out for a while to be sponsored and had a blast on inlines, but I am old and just want to do what I did as a kid.

: : u can ignore me 4 now. latelly ive been in most pain of my life ever and work is now hell. ive got the most extreme shooting stabbing sharp gunshot pains ever where ive even screamed at work and im no sissy. maybe built a tolerance to pain meds. but my experiences here w/ a few of the kids were not the best, its the area too. i dont like others flack so i keep to my own. that one inliner i met the other day was really rad and cool to me and gives me ease that 1 day i wont be in pain and skn. i will b happy to sk8 w/ him. but i wont take back that every vert rollrsk8r ive met here is rad!!

: : : I just thought is was funny. Joe, I was a sponsored Inline skater and had a great time as well. The Yakotoshi (sp?) brothers are amazing.

: : : : : I think it,s more of an age thing,, the most cocky fuckers I,ve ever met were skateboarders but some of the radest people I,ve met were skateboarders too.I had a ball on inlines for about ten years of my life and now I'm back on my rollerskates, I'm having a ball again.It aint about the act,it,s about the attitude and every scene has it,s dicks and it,s rad folk.There is some awsome inliners out there as there is skateboarders but thete is some real fuckwits too,it seems the rollerskaters have the highest wank to rad ratio out there,maybe cos there seems to be so few of us.Search double flat spin on youtube by one of the rad jap brothers for some mind numbing inline action.Anyone who says that aint rad is lying to cover their pride.

: : : : well some of the cockiest sk8rs i know r the rink skrs who just roll in circles and own 25 pairs of $1000+ sks. they think you are nothing unless u own a rolline. would love to show them up on my plastic plates!

: curiosity question: those who have inlined in the past, why are you now on rollerskates? i have my reasons, but am interested in other opinions. thanx ;-}
