Does anyone rollerblade?

[chaze]

I seen this guy getting pulled from his and dog and he looked like he was having a blast.

Thinking about checking it out.

Any tips, thoughts?

And Who actually does it?

[u-Bob]

I don't....

[BJ]

fun until your dogs feet get chapped.

Yes, I rollerblade, It's really fun, you just need to find a nice path for it, and make sure you don't get cheap rollerblades. stay away from the ones that are plastic and have clips. My advice is to look at some Mission hockey rollerblades with laces, and make sure you don't go cheap.

Good to know, I was thinking Targe' but I will check out big5 instead.

Dogs feet chapping? Hmm I am interested if this might really happen. Can't they run on concrete o.k. and why is pulling someone that much worse?

Would you want to pull something while walking on concrete in bare feet? Try it. Pull a buddy on a skateboard in barefee, then do it with shoes on. Big difference.

Another thing people don't think about is that your dog's head is at exhaust pipe height. So when you're walking on a busy street, try to keep your dog away from the cars as much as possible.

Hmmm thanks for the tips, I love my doggers and wouldn't want any problems for her.

Those are really good points, first of all I don't think a dog should have to pull you, that defeats the whole purpose of rollerblading. Also, dogs get tired really quickly in the heat and dehydrate while out for walks, it's way worse if they have to pull someone. also, their feet will be injured from pulling the person.

Bottom line: leave the dog alone at home and go roller blade alone

[Spunky]

Wear your knee.elbow pads and a helmut

[toddler]

I do when i have time. Good points above, and as Spunky says, wear your protection. I make my money with my brain and my hands. If you break either, you're done for a while.

Ya, no kidding that could really suck.

My dog used to pull me all the time. She got in some good exercise and I didn't really have to do anything. Just make sure you get a harness and not just a collar. As for rollerblades, don't be cheap. The more expensive ones are much more comfortable and smoother. You'll get killer blisters with cheap ones. It's been a while since I've done it or even looked at inline skates - but just try some on and see what feels the best.

i love rollerblading and i agree find a good path and don't go cheep on the blades. i have the hockey ones and they are great

[LauraLee]

i rollerblade, and love it. killer exercise and fun. i used to do a shitton of blading, 32 miles a shot (the trail i rode was 2 miles long and i would generally do it 16 times). i agree that it's best to get a good pair, you get what you pay for big time. i just recenty bought my 4th pair and love them. they are k2's softboot. powder blue i am totally digging them.

have fun if ya do give it a shot.

Screw it, I might look like a lamo but I'm going to do it. Off to big5

Might pick up some leg warmers and a half shirt while I'm there.

[Babagirls]

ya, watch out for bumps in sidewalks & curbs.

[Peace]

I Spend like 2-5 hours a day making all my go here and there on them...in NY more then in Russia better roads

[chaze]

OMG so I'm doin it in huntington beach on the peir path and I suck bad but got better after an hour or so.

Anyways this hottie in a two piece starts talking to me, and one things leads to another and she wants to meet me tommarrow and skate together

This was after she asked a random familly for pen to get my digits.

And to makes things weirder, Rob Zombie was there with his women and his girlfriend was telling me how she tried and at shit so bad her butt bounced three times. So she will not touch blades again.

Crazyness for my first blade run, oh blading was fun and good work out too. And no one called me a girly man, atleast I didn't notice anyone.

lol awesome, sounds like you had a good time, when you get good at it, take of the brake and start working on crossovers, acceleration and control. then you'll be really having fun.

Q: - Whats the hardest part about a dude rollerblading -









A: Telling his dad he's gay.

[Morgan]

Fruit boots are gay.

[Vitasoy]

I do... sometimes. but I suck.

[wildgirl]

I don't know how to rollerblade and I never want to!

[Chong]

if you want to challenge yourself find some hilly terrain, it's a bit harder and a better workout

Thanks but I am just trying not to bif at normal speeds now.

What sucks is the girl I met flippin blades San Francisco for fun. I hate getting beat by girls.

Sorry girls no offense.

[Aneros Josh]

if you're gonna go rollerblading, just don't admit it to any of your guy friends that you do...unless you're canadian, then it's ok...

[aico]

The hardest part about Rollerblading is explaining to your parents that you're gay...

They don't call 'em "fruit boots" and "flame blading" for no reason...

[Nader]

I love hockey so i ice/blade and love it...for me it's a love and i kick ass
on blades..once you get it going it's really fun and a good source of
exercise. Do it man you won't regret it

I knew I would get shit I have already, but I don;t give a fuck. I used to get shit for driving my 74 convert beetle in college. Of course it was my friends that never got any action that used to talk shit.

[EviLGuY]

I love rollerblading. It's a great workout and a good way to get from point a to point b in the summer.

ohhh.. i have k2s too! you definately want good skates.. pay $300+ for decent ones and they will last a longgg time too!

its more fun having your partner pulling you along than a dog...dogs are not very soft when breaking your fall either ;)

[fuzebox]

Before I left Vancouver I would do the my place, around the Seawall, and back every day, which is about 12km... I'd do it at a very hard sprint though, passing cyclists etc, was definitely a hard workout.

[adamneve]

thinkinh of buying myself a pair

[camouflaged123]

well, i dont but it really sounds fun and i think i must try it out!

[Serge Litehead]

miss 'em
