I Love Rollerskating

my rollerskates

i skate with my purple jackson vistas with cutesie yellow laces for the contrast.
they are amazing, and i 100% recommend and LOVE them, but i need to get some shorter toe stops so i can do spins and tricks better without the Obstacle.

august 9 - skating at the rink!

went fro like 4 and a half hours again.. but this time it was . Kinda mid...
idk everything was the same but i just wasnt feeling it ! there were a lot of really talented people doing SUPER COOL tricks though. it was a cool time ! but i am tired.. last rink skate of the summer :(

august 6 - skating at the rink!

my feet hurt sooo bad ! went skating for four and a half hours again, and it was so much fun !! my feet r just KILLING MEEE but whatever...
i started working on backwards @ the rink a little bit, but it was freaky !! im getting better at it though ! the smooth floor is just sooo weird. idk how im gonna get used to that after being used to hardwood floors and parking lot pavement LOL !

august 3 - skating at the rink!

I COMPLETELY FORGOT ABOUT THIS PAGE.... UMMM.... thats why there have been no updates LOL ! ive been skating a lot at rinks lately bc its too hot outside and hardwood floors arent cutting it for me
today i skated for almost 5 hours at the rink !! wow !!! it was great, but my feet r KILLINGGG me rn. i had such a great time ! it was pretty busy though, which is normal and expected on a saturday. might go tuesday just to have a Less Crowded experience LOL !
also, i Unfortunately am TOO SCARED to try any tricks or FLair at rinks because there r too many people and 1) i dotn wanna hurt anyone and 2) I .. um . I dont wanna be embarassed if i fall LOL !

general update

even though my last update was like.. a MONTH ago i've still been skating basically everyday ! ive gotten pretty good at spinning, and its honestly pretty easy! i am doing pretty good at back crossovers too. not much (any..) progress on shooting the duck but i'll take what i can get, ya know? i need to stretch more to get better at that, but ive bene forgetting a lot. my feet have been hurting a lot more recently too, which really REALLY sucks
im gonna try and update more on here, but i hope yall know i havent stopped skating ! ive just kinda stopped updating lol

may 31 - skating at home

havent been updating here a lot, but still been skating for like at least an hour every day ! i can feel my leg muscles getting stronger, and i feel SO MUCH MORE comfortable spinning ! not always the best at it, but can at least do 360s without falling on the ground (i can stabilize myself !!). havent made much progress on shooting the duck tho.... So....

may 25 - skating at home

getting really REALLY good at backwards ! and pivot circles (i think thats what theyre called? dig ur toe stop in the ground and spin other foot in circle LOL) are super easy now ! getting less afraid of falling, and getting better AT falling which im super glad abt ! have a lot of mini bruises on my knees now tho :(

may 19 - skating at home

first time using my fancy skates @ home and they were so nice !!! unfortunately the weather is already too hot for me to skate outside :( oh well. getting better at spinning ! not making much progress on pistol squat/shooting the duck tho, but thats more strength stuff. cant even do that off skates yet ! hopefully ill get better at that soon

april 28 - skating at the church parking lot

very great skating weather. not too hot, but not too cold either, with a LOVELY breeze that really elevated the experience. i think ive perfected the skating playlist... really amazing stuff. lady gaga is SO good to skate to

april 28 - skating at the school parking lot

kinda bad honestly... SO hot out ngl and there were too many people, i felt like i was being watched... and the pavement was so cracked and i felt unsafe skating there LOL ! it was also too hot for me to put on my Elbow Guards so i didnt feel safe in that regard either..
