I haven’t rode in awhile so I shouldn’t really talk but …what’s the point about showing video what “this pro can do on skates” or “what that pro can do on a bike”. In both worlds there’s always going to be someone pushing the limit further. There’s always going to be something Sicker that “this skater” did or “that biker” did.

I lived next to union trails so growing up with people like dannyp, crazy paul, jc, dk derek, al, paco, etc… got me hooked on biking. I never got into rollerblading before…I can assume that rollerblading is initially easier to learn…that doesn’t mean it’s not any harder. It looks like there’s a lot more balancing, twisting, spinning, and whatnot…to be quite honest it reminds me too much of figure skating. (No pun attended, its just my opinion)

no man, you should talk, you’re the people that are cool, people who realize that what’s crazy on a bike is cool, so is what’s crazy on a skateboard, and so is what’s crazy on rollerblades… i know a few bikers at XW, the one kid does massive airs i can’t think of his name, but for the most part i’ve noticed the kids who talk the most shit are the kids who suck the most IE i’ve skated for 9 years and i can’t do a flip trick into a rail because skateboarding is inherently harder to get used to
