You gals are making me miss my inline skates, good exercise for skiing? Perhaps I should pick up a used pair?
Bummer! I've been eyeing RB Twisters, to "up my game"; I've tried them on, and they fit OK, but there was a possible pressure spot that held me back. I might try them again, but I was disappointed.AAhhhhhhhhhhhhh. I had to send those back. They didn't fit me well enough to discover what I could have done with them.
Definitely reduces my whining about the absence of snow, and strengthens almost all of the right muscles. (Incidentally, don't watch the GNAR movie just before going skating.)You gals are making me miss my inline skates, good exercise for skiing? Perhaps I should pick up a used pair?
I've used both downhill poles while practicing slalom-type turns around cones, and cross country poles while fitness skating. Holy Crap, though!! You can get FLYING by doing that!! Also, it's one of the best full body aerobic workouts ever (besides winter skate skiing)!!Does anyone use ski poles or just poles when they inline skate? I'd often see folks here and there on the boardwalk in Newport Beach, CA using poles while inline skating. Not sure if that's more of a cross country ski thing or if it helps with the motion of poling while downhill skiing?

Anyone out there do any inline skating? I'm thinking of taking it up. But I've only looked at people on YouTube doing it, so don't exactly know how to get started.
But it seems to have some similarities to skiing. What do people know? Has anyone here done this?
Uh, might you be familiar with HouseMouse Designs?Yes, having a mice time!
If you happen to be a skate size 6, there's someone with a free pair with protective gear in Framingham (on CL)
