yeah, new wheels. ;) $$$
Nope, try again.:D
but chicks dig scars.. I don't know what else it can be...
So you give up? :D
I do.
I can't even say anymore. It's been built up too much. ;)
ok then. :confused:
The worst part about rollerblading is telling your dad you're gay. :D
sorry I must've missed the movie or show this came from. It still makes no sense to me.

Tweak...perhaps it's outdated now, but back in the mid/late 90's I was rollerblading with chicks to help them feel safe skating *alone* at night (after work)...we would sometimes make pizza/brownies/cakes/etc, drink red wine/sometimes beer :), watch a movie after....then fvk...sometimes. All I have to say is I was doing a lot better than my peers in the bed department.

I liked rollerblading. Especially doing one chick on skates in a park as she skated up to the water fountain. All women should come on NMB bearings ;).

also, dragging one foot at an angle can help stop.

I learned painfully that the wrist is not adaquate in breaking a fall.

After spraining my wrist and tearing up my face on roller blades I can agree that it's not a good long term method of stopping.

I used to blade a ton as a teenager. Always took off the heel break first thing. T-Stop or grass always worked for moi. Anyone else have Flash Tracks as a youngin?
