Looking for an Inline skate (rollerblade) with Shocks?

I am looking for an inline skate with some sort of shock absorber. Anything that can help with roads that are a little ruff. I am not going over pot holes or anything, just roads that are not paved but have that rough black tar.





Thanks

I have a pair they are size 12, mission team skates form 2004. They are worn, but when I was playing in them they always performed awesomely. Check them out, the only problem is that they are a more stiff skate made with carbon fiber and high grade leather. If you are not used to wearing skates these are not the ones for you. Also, instead of a skate with shock absorbers look at skates with a wheel diameter of 80mm+ (even 80 is small now). You will go faster and ride easier.

Jogger stroller for inline skating??

I am looking into getting a jogger stroller to inline skate with. I have heard that a lot of them really don't work well and seem tippy, even when you're just running.





Does anyone have specific experience skating with a jogger? Any specific product that worked or didn't work??





Thanks!

Jogger stroller for inline skating??
I can't help you with specific models but can point out things to look for.





The wider it is, the less tippy. I would want to try it out in a store to feel the tippyness. Some people may say that one is or is not tippy and you would feel different.





Check how it sits if you do actually tip it over. Will the child be held away from scraping their head on the ground?





Does it have a "deadman" type brake or a teather so that it doesn't get away from you if you slip and let go. A deadman brake sets the brake if you let go, the oposite of most brakes.





Even with a good stroller, get a helmet for the child. They can't move out of the way or protect their head on their own.

Argressive inline skate stores. not online. in Los Angeles?
The closest shop to LA that I can think of is Intuition Skate Shop in Bakersfield. I know that's not exactly close, but inline shops are few and far between.





Good luck...

Does inline skating have any popularity at all in japan?

Does inline skating have any popularity in the young crowd in japan (at all)? I'm going to go visit my grandmother down there in november for a year and I wanted to know If I could bring my rollerblades to ride around there. Would there be anyone riding blades or skating in general around there? I'm going to tokyo and she might bring me to visit my uncle who lives down in osaka so I wanted to know if skatings popular in those areas. And what areas are they popular in (if any)





1 more question. if I have a family member living over in japan and is a native member of the country, does that mean I still need some kind of visa to move over there for good. Cant I just move to the persons house since I have family over there? My grandmother wanted my to move over with her and the family she lives with for a long time and I want to too.





Thanks guys!

In-line skating is very popular in Japan. Take the skates.





You can't just move to Japan even if you have a family member there. You need special dox and Visa. You need to ask at the Japan Embassy nearest your city.

Ice or inline skating?

what's easier to do? inline skating or ice skating? any tips on ice skating too?

Ice or inline skating?
i think ice skating is easier because it doesnt hurt as much when you fall, and its easier to turn and spin. in inline skating if you fall you wont slide as much and it will hurt more. if its your first time skating, stay close to the barrier but if you feel ready you can let go of it. dont try to do hard things like jumps and one foot spins.
Reply:I'm like JM -- I can skate all day, but I can't rollerblade to save my life! It's a different posture that is needed for hockey or inline skates just kills my back! So personally, I think ice skating is easier.





Probably the best tip I can give you for on the ice is keep your knees bent and your arms out for balance. Many times new skaters try to stand up straight, but being stiff doesn't allow much room for error! Good luck!
Reply:ice skating hurts too much lol
Reply:I think it is ice skating but that is my own preference. I can ice skate OK (don't fall down too much, but I can't stop either) but I cannot inline skate. I can't even stand up in the things. My ankles buckle out from underneath me.
