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
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  |

| 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 ) |

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. |
