Okay, so, garden center! Pretty wet. Kinda dirty, but nothing impossible. Look out for Rouge hoses and/or tools, which can tend to be everywhere during open hours. I'd recommend farms with a large barn. Sometimes the foundation of the barn is poured concrete. Indoors, large, and, again, all but some stray equipment, mostly neat and safe.
I just got some rollerskates..I have not rollerskated in years-s...I was never very good but I got around tge rink..I can not believe how difficult it is..I thought it would be much easier...I keep practicing and try to keep low ..fell several times...I have to master this...gotta start a roller revolution here...bellbottoms and all...No one here except one girl I saw with LED wheels rollerskates!!
Are you using waxed nylon nuts for the replacement? They are a better option than using thread lock. A standard nut is just going to work itself loose again.
I see you have an aftermarket trucks on your skates. I am thinking about getting some for my ridell skates. But I just want to have them for park and beach skating. Do they make skating more stable and comfortable?
Holy Moly. I guess you did your job and put these wheels in demand. You say 3 years ago the 65mm were $29 and now they are $40. That is a 36% increase in 3 years, or 12% increase each year for the past 3 years. Yeah Biden was really bad for the economy, but that is one of the highest increases I have seen. That might even be more than the average grocery increase. That is crazy. Instead of $58 a full set, they are now $80. Can't wait to see what Biden does with inflation for the next 3 years. Maybe these wheels will sell for $116 for a full set, double the price you quoted. Wow. Maybe Kamala Harris will be able to bring inflation down when she takes over the presidency, when Biden can't do it anymore.
I just bought a pair of Moxxi beach bunnies after the previous pair I got were founded to be pretty cheap and unsafe (plastic plates, bad plastic wheels etc). I feel really stupid and feel like I wasted money because i customized and painted those skates as well :( But at least I now have a pair that I know are safer and fit what I want them for. I'm going to keep my old ones and just have them on display as my first skates.
Good tips. I noticed that I was favoring my dominant leg as the lead and I have started switching to help strengthen both legs and learn the muscle memory in both legs. Getting better quickly!
Yeeeeees the choppy walk, or as I tent to roll pusshing with inside edges on sides as it feels more stable but doesn't look right when I record my self. Can you please do more gliding tips to unlock the body??
I’m 59 and just got on the quarter pipe for the first time yesterday. Trying to learn pumping-I fell, I fell, I fell, I fell. Can’t wait to try again next week! Your tips are not just for roller skating, but for life.
