is there still a ice skateing rink in town

First, you should get a good size. It's great if it's a little big, so when your size gets bigger, you can still wear them. Practice in an open area. You should have a movement kind of like slightly lunging forward, and turning can be pretty easy. Its much easier to have someone help you for the first time.

i cant find the answer! I think it is blanced

Air resistance slows you down which is why ski racers wear tight suits to minimize air resistance.

It was invented in Poland, a long long time ago, I'm not quite sure when though.

the first speed skate was a animal bone straped to the bottom of a man's boot. he did this to try and get down the frozen river faster (during the winter).

The first two athletes to win medals at 5 consecutive Olympics were fencer Philippe Cattiau of France and rower Jack Beresford of Great Britain. Each did it at the 1920, 1924, 1928, 1932, and 1936 Summer Games.

Fencer Philippe Cattiau -

1) 1920 - silver in men's individual foil and silver in men's team foil.

2) 1924 - silver in men's individual foil and gold in men's team foil.

3) 1928 - silver in men's team foil.

4) 1932 - gold in men's team foil and gold in men's team Épée.

5) 1936 - bronze in men's team Épée.

Rower Jack Beresford -

1) 1920 - silver in single sculls.

2) 1924 - gold in single sculls.

3) 1928 - silver in coxed eights.

4) 1932 - gold in coxless fours.

5) 1936 - gold in double sculls.

Toys-R-Us has some kids roller blades.

Yes they do, i belive it costs £40 for inline/hockey skates and £60 for figure skates

To make a trampoline scooter, find an old scooter that your not going to really ride anymore and take of both the front and rear wheels with two Allen keys. then find an old tennis ball and make two slits in it using a plaster knife etc to fit on the front forks where the front wheel used to be. then using duct tape or electric tape, wrap the tape around the tennis ball to keep it secure. then find another tennis ball and put it underneath where the wheel used to be and use excessive amounts of tape to keep it secure. if you want extra protection to keep the deck from whacking your ankles then find an old towel and wrap it around the deck as tight as u can and secure with duct tape. Done!

Figure skating is the hardest sport in the world!If you ever think about it,us figure skaters are falling on are butts every time. So, we have to have speed, balance,grace,guts,strength,and perfect timing.Then we have to push our selfs hard.But when we get off that ice from a graceful routine,we fell good for all the hard work we put in to it!So,if you ever want to join figure skating, go right ahead!You will ether love it or hate it! After a bit of practice and dedication, you'll love it and it'll be easier.

aksel, axel?

as much as a fish

after u learnn kickflips and shove its, try learning heel flips. i like to classify my tricks into groups. Grop1 is the the simplist and consits of olie's, shove its and manuels. Group 2 consists of basic fliptricks like kickflips and heelflisp and variables of both. Group 3 consists of complex flip tricks like Hardflips, Treflips, Hospital Flips and other flip tricks that may be compounds of 2 easier ones. try to learn tricks within the group you feel you can do best and then SLOWLY progress through the higher groups. =]

Not a great deal. It is most likely worth between 10-50 dollars depending on the condition and the exact age. Certain rare models could bring more, and many common models from the 40s on bring less. Your best bet is to sell the pair to a decorator if possible.

Any loose clothing will provide additional air resistance so speed skaters - and many other athletes trying to minimize drag and maximize their speed - will wear form-fitting clothing.

Yes, I have been skated many times.I take private lessons.My figure skating level is Alpha.Next week I will be tested.I think you should try figure skating.It is a lot of fun, but a lot of work, so be prepared.

Not necessarily, though you may have a bit of an advantage in learning over someone who's never skated at all. One of the big issues is the same as that between roller skating and roller blading: skates automatically remain vertical; blades want to tip over to the side.

No it's not. Unless you are using it at the beginning of a sentence. Then, of course, the f would be capitalized.

You can skateboard in any shoes but converse are not considered skateboarding shoes.

Most Converse shoes are casual like Jack Purcell, Chuck Taylors, etc. However, Converse also has some skateboarding style shoes as well, such as: Volitant, Kiro and Karve Ox, which main purpose was skateboarding, now people use them as casual.

Each rollerblade has four wheels. They are not in pairs like rollerskates. They are one in front of the other.

The recreational skate is not designed for the speeds that the figure skate is. It is a "crossover" between the figure skate and the hockey skate. It is not designed to be as precise in turnings and stops as the figure skate. However, if you do not wish to invest in figure skates for the novice (just in case it's another whim) recreational skates are a good option. The novice learns to skate and has fun without the expense of the professional skate.

no the best skating shoes out there are supra vaiders or muskas skytop which is also supra. because i bought my muskas about a year and half ago and they havent teared or anythin plus they have the best board feel ever plus somthing that's pretty cool is that they come with a stash pocket right inside the shoe and they also come whit more ankle and heel protection. i would highly recommend these for any skater out their

Good quality skateboard bearing oil can be a wonderful thing to maintain the skateboard properly. Through oiling, cleaning and maintenance, it can be easier for the skater to ride it properly and get better performance. Visit ionicflux. com for more information now.
