Yall just don't know!!!! This brings up all old memories!! I used to be at Skate King every FRIDAY morning from 9am to 12 pm😜 when I lived there!! Yall still looking GOOD in the LOU!! MISS YALL
For real when I seen the one white girl I was like look shes doing her thang and not getting hated on.. One day it will be the same for me, I just came to cruise ✌
Mostly. The rink is ALLOT like High School after you have been around for a while. If you are single, dance with the girls, become well known, you are in for a whole lot of drama . Just like High School (more so) you are being watched! What can you do, who did you come with, who do you hang out with, is he banging her? Gossip galore! This sport is about having fun AND showing off what you got! Gangsters, nurses, teachers, doctors, psychopaths you name it, it's there. Some of them stoned, drunk (both?), on LSD, Estisy, etc. You end up with fans, haters, occasional lovers. It is an adventure in life! You make a LOT of friends and inevitably a few enemies. There is romance, lot's of intimate touching in couples dance , the place is sexually charged adult night, sometimes very dark. No sword fights, but nasty fights do brake out now and then, usually over the girls. Depending on how you skate, it's NEVER boring! Can be a 3 hour adrenaline rush!
This brings warm joy to heart growing up in East St Louis in the 80s at skate king in E Saint traVeLing to Saints and Skate King in St Louis was always Love Love this video shonuff
@@anthonytaylor7928 Yes they do but ain't no place like home. Skate King is my home. I have skated in Dallas and Arlington it was good but St. Louis!!!! And you don't have your skate partners or friends I skated with all my life. It is different. I do miss you all.
I'm 66 yo and partially blind so I can't roll anymore. I'd be like a pinball machine. But oh back in the day, my two brothers and I would roll up on our motorcycles, boots in our bags looking like a million dollars every Sat night. Y'all keep it up 'cause I'm still rolling with y'all sitting here on the side of my bed.
Consider a partner to couple skate with, and go on Monday nights from 7-10p (adult roll 45 yrs and up) which has a much lighter crowd. Even elderly skaters are still rolling. Never give up on your passions.
I STARTED AT ST. NICKS TOO. YOU GO WAY BACK. WE WALKED TO FOREST PARK ON SUNDAYS AND WALKED ALL THE WAY BACK HOME TO ROBIN AND THEKLA. I AM 64 AND CAN STILL GET MY ROLL ON. LOVE YOU SK8 SISTER
Aaaaaaa shhhhhit!!!! LET'S GO LET'S GO LET'S GOOOOO!!!! this is what good times means. Hells yeah. I see beautiful beautiful people. Having the time of their life!!!!
For some reason skatelyfe puts a smile on face.. Love seeing my people let go and enjoy... Wish u were n VA I could use some lessons. whomever is the face behind this channel keep em coming u should introduce. #uroc music dope af to 😁😎🤘
42 years old. Just got back into it last year. My skating rink ain’t no where near as cool as this. I need this to get better. We need way more people to get back into it. I’m there every Sunday night in VA.
I started roller skating in the mid-70s in to the 80s these are great videos brings back memories I even had a pair of number 5 roller skate with the fur tongue and the jump bar and the rubber Sim Wheels keep the videos coming thanks for sharing🔥👍👍
these are adult only nights. Wish it was like this at my rink. I've crashed into many young ones due to them not thinking and cutting across my path or other stupid actions. Really knocks my confidence when shit like that happens.
This is aweomse to see ! Good times, no bs no beef no negativity in the air ... Love more , hate less and enjoy life even! Glad all of y'all had a good time
I haven't been there in years a lot of us from the mil ( milwaukee Wisconsin) still go I see they got the floor fixed it's looking real good , wow I just saw CD man man I miss it
All me & my crew use to do at skate king is pull up and DANCE OUR ASS OFF because the dj at this spot was POP'N!! It was actually better than going to a club. I looove skate king. Spinks family still go there to throw our celebrations & family time events
Y'all got some mean skills 💪 I wish I could skate looks so fun. Last time I went to a skating rink I busted my azz 2 times but still had fun doing so cause luckily I had 2 fine white guys help me up 😏
