So whats the general thoughts on the wee ski-blades?

ive been bustin for a shot for the past cple years, think theyd be well fun to do a few park runs in once in a while. gonna rent a set this year to try.

never saw the attraction with skiing but these rule Laughing

all my buds laugh when ya bring them up saying, aye 'gayblades' just like the skiers, ya big woofter lol

whats the opinions then? queezy or steezy? lol Cool

Why do people hate bladers so much? They're only trying to have some fun on a mountain just like anyone else.

there sick, i wouldnt get straight onto them though, you need to practice up and down your local high street on a set of zoom boots first, that way you'll get used to the lack of length and gurth (although your probably used to that already Wink)

Because they have no skill, ride in a dangerous way, have no ability to stop and usually ride in sweaters and stonewash jeans

Fair enough. I've never had any incidents with them so couldn't really see the problem, and I know some people who use them occasionally, but then they have some idea what they're doing.
