Get Agressive

in #sports7 years ago (edited)

Rollerblading is a sport that hits close to home for me.... it also hits my knees and elbows sometimes.
My mother threw me into my first set when I was eleven, and I currently own six pairs some twenty years later.

Tony hawk put massive pressure on the xgames to highlight skateboard over the rollerblade industry, which was still a new industry and breaking ground, and god love the guy, but it pushed aggressive inline to the backburner and highlighted skateboard. It pushed rollerblade underground for a long time, but that only served to make it more popular as time went on.

Now in 2018, rollerblades are making a come back!

There are so many styles of skate, swappable parts, wheel sizes that the possibilities are endless for a nice custom skate. From Speed skates, to slalom, street, and aggressive, its a sport that keeps you active, and an economical way to travel faster than walking without exerting a lot of energy.

triskates (in this instance with dirt wheels) so you can pummel the dirt.

Now, I'm not saying that you should buy a pair, but BUY A PAIR!

It's green, it's active, and its hella cool! you'll thank yourself after a summer of rollerblading, and working those lungs into good cardio health, all while saving time, gas, and cold hard cash.

I'll leave it at that. I gotta roll!
