Yes, as u already have good balance on a board... But you should learn how to ocean swim aswell as that is a grat bonus
If you are referring to Quads no. In-lines are faster than Quads, and they're easier. I have been skating every Friday, from 7-10 for a year now at my local Roller Skating Rink and I had allot of trouble with Quads. I always fell, but In-lines are the easiest and fastest skates. Especially if you have good wheels.
The song was titled "Brand New Key" and it was written by folk singer Melanie Safka-Schekeryk in 1971. It was also known as "The Rollerskate Song."
Yes. Its very easy. I ice skate 3 times a week and when i picked up some roller skates for the first time i was better than most people at the rink!!
Shuffling is not that hard, but does take a little time to practice. The concept is pretty simple. You want to basically incorporate three moves/movements into one, and do them on beat as if you were doing a three step dance. Any moves you will are technically considered shuffling so don't worry about the right or wrong shuffle. To most people, as long as you're doing it on beat, they will think you are good.
You will probably want to loosen your trucks that way your skates are more free to move around.
Below is a simple shuffle I've seen people do. You could learn this and then make it your own by adding or changing moves.
1. While skating, have your left and right feet next to each other, and then take right or left foot and do a a half moon motion so that your right foot, for example, is almost in same position but on the left side of your left foot.
2. Bring the right foot back and have your feet next to each other (this completes first move). Now pump your legs - so move your left and right foot out and back in at the same time. (Pretend there is a child about to go through your legs, so try to make them wider so you don't run them over.)
3. You've done the first two moves. Now take the foot you started with and put it behind the other foot (so, for example, you originally did the half moon by putting your right foot over your left. You now want to put your right foot behind your left almost like in a slant motion).
4. Now you've done all three moves. Just repeat.

I've done both ice skating ad roller skating. I enjoyed ice skating but I wanted expand myself I bought a good fitting pair of roller skates! I found body position was every important. In my opinion the Biggest difference between ice and roller skating are "edges"! Ice skates have one blade on each boot--the ice blade is very narrow--but is still has an inside and a outside edge Roller skates have four wheels and each wheel has an inside and outside edge BUT the edges are 3/4" apart from each other!! When I was ice skating we didn't have inside ice rinks! I had a problem with edges in completion---but I finally found how to REALLY master theoss edges!!!
Yes, that's why the Zamboni must come out to refreeze the ice and fill in the grooves. The blade heats the ice slightly as it skates over it. It creates the grooves because it melts the ice where it glides.

Generally, there are two main kinds of roller skates: in-lines and quads. In-lines are made for speed, and quads are made for performing tricks.
There are several classifications of skates:
One kind of skates are 'aggressive' skates. These have hard boots and small wheels. These are used for dangerous stunts such as hand rail slides or stair jumps. Generally, only extremely advanced skaters use these skates.
On the other hand, 'recreational skates' are generally used for beginners. They are built for comfort and durability. These are often confused with 'fitness' skates, which are reserved for those who Rollerblade often.
There is another group of skates, called 'speed' skates. Their design varies, but they are generally used for sports.
Actually, roller skates were invented in 1760 by Joseph Merlin, of Huy, Belgium.
It is according to me dont buy them because you are gonna fall on your tushie so dont buy them
Roller blades are much faster and better. The roller skates are not as flexible as roller blades are. It's much safer to wear roller blades than roller skates and roller skates are likely to trip you up than roller blades. Also roller blades have more control than roller skates.
There is no one right answer to this question because every skater is different. Some skaters prefer to skate long distances while other prefer a casual skate around the block. Some prefer to skate for fitness on a daily basis, while others are recreational skaters who may only skate once a week or a few times a month. Some skaters are more advanced than others and they desire higher speeds and other specific high end features.
Bottom line is that the best rollerblades for women are skates that are built specifically for women because the design will accommodate the anatomical differences that exist between men and women. The performance features should match the skill level of the skater and meet the skating style that the skater desires.
From person to person it varies because some people like the adrenaline rush skateboarding gives them when they make a huge jump or something like that. Some people perfer just coasting down the streets of diffrent places. Some people are afraid to take risks when skateboarding like Smith Grinding a rail along a 20 stair set and some people will just jump in it and go for it. I hope this helped you any. :)
Yes,because it helps you to do something or satisfy you
Something comfy, in summer a skirt, leggings, and a v neck.
For winter wear cute jeans and a really hot top!
*don't put your hair in a ponytail if your gonna wear a helment! You'll look bald!
They were the first kind of roller skates to be invented, and were later repurposed as Rollerblades.
I learned on Roller blades, but Roller Skates are best, since it is easier to learn. But, in my opinion, roller blades are more fun, so if you learn on skates, try blades afterwards.
Hope this helps!
The price of professional grade figure skates can greatly vary based on the quality of the boot and blade, whether they are being purchased separately or together, and the brand of the boot and blade. The price can be anywhere from $600 and upwards.
