Thanks, man! I hope Andrew catches up with you guys. He'd LOVE it!

@@Skating-Southern-New-England did you give him and of the instagram info?

@@colinhaze_skates-98 In my reply to his comment in this video, yes.

Thanks, Andrew! It surprised me to see the park so empty at that time of day, on such a great day, but what surprised me even more, was that of the few people who were there, we got to meet a decent skater, who belongs in a group! Check out SkateBoston, or if you hang out at that park enough, you will surely run into a group looking for skaters like you. linktr.ee/sk8bos

Definitely!

If you are learning, take it a little at a time. Use protection, and take it easy. Never try to do too much in one session. Be patient, stick with it, and everything will fall into place, over time.

@@드래곤박TV 정확히. 방금 두 스케이팅 스타일의 차이점을 정확하게 설명하셨네요. 🙂

Thanks. Well, I don't know what you had, or what you replaced them with, that was too large and too heavy, so I can only tell you what I know, based on brands I've used. I have Powerslide Hardcore Evos that fit me snug. Definitely not for an extra wide foot. The skates I use most, my Seba High Light Carbons, also fit me very well, but I can't say for sure if they would accommodate wide feet. I never had any problems with any of my rollerblade skates, and I've heard they can be ok for wide feet, but doublechecking never hurts. My FR-1 skates are the skates that I have read, are good for wide feet. (they are definitely more "roomy" than all other skates I've used) I never found them to be heavy.....maybe just a tad bulky. (for what I like to do)

Thanks, Dave. It really came together nicely.

Thank you! Yes, when it comes to path skating, this one is tough to beat.

Thanks, man! You helped make it special and I'm so glad you were part of it.

Thanks, and yes, that was a fun skating day. Definitely going to do that more often. 🙂

For SURE! And thanks for your help with the bridge footage! 👏

@@Skating-Southern-New-England Yeah no problem, was interesting to use the camera with my filming style and see the results after

@@spicyananaspizza Good for you! Yes, to me, they just feel "right".

You know it! I wish you the best in whatever direction you take in that setup. You will be surprised at how much more you can do, over time. That extra "work" you mention, will definitely make you a better, stronger skater. Thank you for this awesome comment!

Merci

You looked great out there, man! Nice to see you as well.

@@Skating-Southern-New-England we should all plan a day to skate around the city

@@Daniel.Sk8er I'll be there in the morning! I go every Saturday as long as it's nice out.

I will look into that and get back to you.

Sorry for the delay, but I'm waiting on a (hopeful) reply from an e-mail I sent out on this to someone I believe would be able to help.

@@Skating-Southern-New-England Excellent! It's a start! I appreciate it.

@@Skating-Southern-New-England Excellent! It's a start! I appreciate it.

Boston misses YOU! Thanks, man.👍

Thanks! I love to go early and that gives me so much more freedom. Good to see another rocker!

@@orlandorollerblading3927 Thank you! You're a lot of fun and a hell of a skater. Hope to skate with you again!

@@Skating-Southern-New-England for sure!👍

@@winstonchurchll Awesome! Skating certainly makes me happy, and your comment is one of the reasons for this channel...to show what skating can do to improve LIFE! Thanks for your input.

Thanks. We got a little history lesson, too. 🙂

@@Skating-Southern-New-England I recorded the same history banners when I had my camera out too. I was thinking of doing the same exact thing you did with them. 😆

❤

The weather made it that much better, and thanks. It's great to see you back, and even better to see you guys there, as a group.

@@Skating-Southern-New-England The weather was pretty good throughout the whole weekend. It's nice being back. When I went to Florida I thought I was going to be able to do a whole lot more skating than I actually did. I am planning on doing trails and street skating a few days a week again now. I always like skating with my group. We have so much fun. We were on 3-4 hours of sleep when you seen us on Saturday. I had them up till 2am Saturday morning laughing so much.

I've only been to those rinks once or twice each. I don't remember being that much of a difference in size. The difference I remember, is the floors, and both were beautiful to skate on.

😅 I believe you. I didn't know I was competing for speed, but if I'm in Boston Sunday, (it will be early if I do), I'll give it a go. 🙂

hey man I'm really sorry I can't make it Sunday anymore. you can have the title of best blader in Boston..for now. love your videos by the way

@@StellarLlama Thank you. Sorry you couldn't make it. I think that would have been fun, even if you probably would have blown me away. I've skated with the best skaters in Boston. I'm a decent skater, but I'll never be the best blader in Boston, nor did I ever intend to be. Some of the people I have skated with there, have been doing it for 40 years or more.🙂 There are some REALLY good skaters in Boston, male and female, of all ages.

We can arrange that at some point. When I drive in to Boston, I park at Castle Island. If I take the train in, it's to South Station. I like to go every Saturday morning, weather permitting. Many Sundays as well, but that depends a lot on what I do on Saturdays.

@@Skating-Southern-New-England ok, hope to see you there

@@terrablader Thanks! I'll be 59 next month. I will check it out.

@@Skating-Southern-New-England if you get some wheels with Gabe he knows, ill throw down some. in advance for you. I got some 5 wheel frames with all red wheels its trippy as hell. 62 here hehehe.

@@terrablader Oh, thanks, but I'm not interested in skating unless the power comes from ME. I'm sure they are a lot of fun, but I'm having plenty of fun the way I do now. Gabe is a great guy!

@@Skating-Southern-New-England the kite skating is fun as hell. would love to do low tide on the cape we have pretty mild tides in San Diego

@@Skating-Southern-New-England I agree about being self powered, in San Diego we have trails everywhere but not such good inline areas, 0-30mph is 3 seconds is a rush trust me. I have retired that rig though too risky. The kite skating might continue i ruined my back Darwin awards. Now i just skate mild hills for fitness and balance.

Thanks! Luckily, falling is rare for me, but I know it can happen, for whatever unexpected reason, at any moment. Protection works!

Thank you! It's a lot of fun to see newer skaters like this truly enjoying it, while learning it.

He's going to get good fast. That was actually great for a beginner.

@@darkoale3299 Absolutely! He's got skateboard experience, so that helps a bit. When we started the day, we went at a beginner's pace, but that didn't last long. A few hours later, we were street skating, like street skaters do.

Thanks David. The fall wasn't nearly as bad as it would have been without gear, especially, in this case, the left wrist guard, which saved me from a lot that day. All I got out of that incident was those scrapes.

Thank you. Over 99% of the time, I don't need protection. But just yesterday, after 16 miles, the last 500 feet was not completed without another fall. So yes, I'm glad I use it.🙂

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you!

I just finished 17.8. Not in Boston, though.

What you see here is park skating for this group. I don't know if you meant aggressive skating, but there are none in this group that I'm aware of.

You are correct. I'm pretty sure this was 2 years ago.

Many of us met just a couple of years ago, and since that time, we have all seen the amount of work each skater puts in to improve, and how it has paid off for each of us. I know I've seen it, and yes, it's amazing. I just love the variety of skills and styles individual skaters possess, and how they use them.
