a lot of begginer modern skates use boots and frames like this the kinda skates you can buy from a grovery store and not a skate store. So people are still learning on boots like this
I agree with most of what you said :) but some of the technology in this time was different..hehe like the middle two wheels closer than the first and last two...of the way the aluminium frame was made... but overall I think these are awesome skates... and anyone could learn on these
Why did everyone stop skating? I mean, it was poplar one day, and then, in unison, everyone quit, including myself. It was so much fun! Also, a lot safer than skateboarding and BMX.
Skateboarding industry played a huge role in trashtalking rollerbladers back in the day. Additionally, not many people are aware of the fact that rollerblading is still fun in the late 20s, 30s, even 40s. At some point you think that it doesn't make sense to ride through skate parks as an "adult". This might be the reason why many people stop. Including the fact that family life and overall responsibilities might hinder you going out and have fun like you used to in your teens.
I did both but rollerblading always gave me the sweaty feet and sore ankles it was tiring being strapped to a set of wheels. Now I have an electric skateboard, love it.
Cause skateboarders invisibilized us in the 90s and 2000s, insults us, were condescendants with us, and they do the same thing with scooters actually… (sorry for faults i’m french). I spoke with professionnals rollerbladers from usa and they have thé same conclusion… It’s hard to be rejected and it’s Why i hate skateboarders and i considér them like nazis.
For myself, it was because I have no one to do it with anymore, my brother is no long with me and living in a capital city with no parks or support groups just....it's isolating. All I do is sit on my phone now after work and reminisce about happy times and loved ones.
I had a pair of these skates. But with plastic frame. I still have the wheels, they have cows printed and the word “moooooooo”. In the strap there was also a cow and a “2% milk” mark.
