I've only ever gotten used to quad skates. I never learned roller blades. Couldn't get used to the idea of lifting both feet as a braking mechanism, so I just kept falling over as a kid.
How do you use roller blades, and look cool using them?

Yes, look cool. I've seen people glide along at high speeds in utter bliss, and I want to be fast like them.

>How do you use them
Ice skating or sking. You shift from one foot to the other, using your foot offset to push to the next blade and then repeat. Roller blades are more intuitive than quad skates as they are far less fall prone.

>How do you look cool?
You don't. It's a fruitboot, be happy and skate

>t been fruitbooting as an adult for over a decade.

I struggled to remain upright when I had them. How do you stand?

Standing on skates should be easy. If you find you are having trouble you either are balanced wrong or are trying to move. Rollerblades should be easy to stand on. Remember to bend your knees and consider your center of gravity. Confidence on skates comes from time. I myself never wore any gear but I rarely went above 14MPH and was a commuter skater. Check this guys blog he started fresh and documented his steps. Try to walk the V. Remember if done right you should push off the rear foot to the front. Also remember that blades are only as good as their bearings so if you want to make a pair of skates shine invest in some reds and clean/swap your wheels regularly

Honestly pretty great. Skates are actually a super chill way to do shit. I've been ran out of stores before though. In general if you go hard you'll learn to do everyday life shit in them. I would typically get on the bus, lace up and then at my stop take off for my office.

Do yourself a favor look up a skate shop in your city and try some boots before you buy.
Signs of skate quality
>metal removable trucks
>comfortable boots

Tuner Things To Know
Soft skate wheels wear faster but grip more. Check the hardness rating on the wheel
78-80mm is the sweet spot for a communter/high manuervability wheel size
Rotate your wheels often

And always remember safety gear works, but if you don't wanna use it you need to always moderate yourself so you don't skate outside your limits

Sunny lane attributes her life as a figure skater for her wide and firm ass.
I saw her on pants off dance off when I was 12
