For those that say I endanger my child: it's more likely that you will fall while walking on the sidewalk than I will while skating with my daughter.
Roller-skating and ice-skating are two different things - I found that out the hard way.
I've been skating since I was 10 years old.
Injuries are a huge thing for skating. I think skating is a very unnatural sport for the body, very tough on the joints.
People forget the skates are like knives. Those blades are constantly sharpened... that's why they sound the way they sound. They are blades.
Skating is one of those sports you unfortunately see people get stuck in.
I like to roller skate. I have been roller skating since I was eight.
I got a pair of roller skates for Christmas when I was 4 or 5 or something, so I had a pair as kid. But I also lived on a gravel road so I wasn't really skating up and down the street.
I want kids to enjoy skating and I think it's a great workout.
All I know is that skating is getting better, the guys are getting better throughout the whole age range.
