Aggressive rollerblading (1 Viewer)

Just wanted to see if there are any aggressive rollerbladers here?

Now to some of you, that title probably sounds a bit lame. When the word 'rollerblading' comes to mind, most people probably think of the rollerbladers at Venice Beach California

 

[tempco]

aggressive in what sense... racing or ramming people?

 

[Luke_D]

Haha.

Think of it a bit like skateboarding, just with it attatched to your feet There are aggressive skates that you can do grinds with.

 

[DaddyK]

uhm, I think you mean inline skating mate. As in, riding ramp/skate parks/grinding rails.

 

[Luke_D]

It's also called aggressive rollerblading.

 

[DaddyK]

uhm...yeah. ok. Your probably thinking of that ps2 game, agressive inline.

 

[tempco]

personally, i've never heard it been called anything other than "rollerblading". "aggressive" kinda threw me off.

 

[Luke_D]

Put it this way. There's inline skating and aggressive inline skating. You can buy inline skates like these Rollerblade skates

or

aggressive inline skates like these Salomon skates

 

[DaddyK]

actually, the first pair are speed skates, and the second pair are just inline skates.

 

[tempco]

the second pair aren't just inline skates. these are inline skates:

the second pair are inline skates with teh cool grind functionality. i want one of those.

 

[Luke_D]

They're AGGRESSIVE inline skates. Not 'inline skates with the cool grind functionality' :uhhuh:

it's "teh". and yes, i'll call them aggressive inline skates from now on.

it just doesn't roll of my tongue, though.

 

[Luke_D]

Lol.

The ones you posted are "Fitness skates." The ones I posted before are "Speed skates" as DaddyK pointed out.

I own a pair of Rollerblade TRS Details. (Original brand name huh?) http://www.baysideblades.com.au/inl...skates/rollerblade/rollerblade_trs_detail.htm

 

[DaddyK]

Anyway they should just be called "blades" because thats what you do, you blade....if you blade your a blader.

 

[Luke_D]

Yeah they're often called bladers.

Most of them refer to themselves as 'rollers.'
