i got a pair of these when i was 13 and i've never been able to use them because all the handrails have bolts on them. it genuinely pisses me off

Fuck of boarder, you've copied real skating since the beginning and are upset we're all back at skateparks doing cooler tricks than "ME FLIP BOARD" you cringe ass roody poo lookin ass, i'm also 6 feet tall talk to me like this at a skate park i'll push your scrawny wannabe ass down a hill and watch you bail since you have no real sense of balance or control then woops your own board over your head and use my fruit boots to give your asshole a fruit loop with my wheels of fury

>>7118
I understand your frustration anon. You have never been given the respect you believe you deserve, because you picked a hobby that sally down the street also enjoys rollerskating up and down the sidewalk with her mother.
But thats just how the world works. You picked the Disney Channel Movie of extreme sports, ignore the fact that everyone else looks down upon you and your fruit boots.

>>7127
No actually we get the respect we deserve, the sport is going through huge rebirth right now, skate parks full of bladers, boarders are a dying breed, being replaced by scooter kids, meanwhile aggressive skates are sold out world wide and youtubers regarding blading kicking off.


You can bail when you fail a trick, we have to commit, you're a pussy boy.

I saw a fruit boarder like you outside on the streets once, a hill I go down fast as shit and is tiny this little pussy shirtless looking hoodlum poser had to BAIL off his board not even half way down! I tried my best to not laugh at him... I hope your puny ego isn't hurt over all the posers in your sport...

Did you know, inline skates were made BEFORE boards? The first shit boards made actually used a future pussified rendition of inline skates trucks on planks, they took rollerskate trucks and planks to make shitty boards~

Go on show me your ollie~

>>7143
The funniest part about skateboarder cope is sally and her gaggle of white kids down the street sidewalk haven't touched blades in a decade, the only ones left are true EXTREME sporters, meanwhile boarders are still rife with swag having wiggers who go shirtless around the block holding their boards while they walk or going 2MPH never doing so much as a single jump, just going from point A to point B, the amount of sad pathetic cope from your "sport" full of posers who can't do a single trick is hilarious.

The only bladers left are extreme sports.
The only plankers left are poser wannabe's who have to resort to ad hominem
Sad~
https://youtu.be/DwLCDPMTcmY
Check it, this is modern day skating.

The only boarders left I respect are long boarders hitting up giant ass hills doing something truly extreme or ones who respect their grandfather sport, skating. That's right, skateboarding isn't skating, Skating is. Putting SKATES on your feet is skating.

Soaping is to inline what scooters are to skateboards. Sorry bros, your 'sport' takes less talent and looks more stupid than the one it tried to imitate.

>>7151
I get the appeal though sonic adventure games are cool as fuck and you want to grind as a kid but never realise grind skates exist, I used to want soap shoes now I own USD Aeon 60's

>>7151
>>7154
Sorry for the double post, but i respect scooters more than skate boarders, skateboarders ive seen are always posers who sit around doing jack shit 99% of the time and are there for the aesthetics whilst scooter kids take their fucking scooters do 360 rotations with the bottom part and jump stairs, whilst all the boarders i see lately just bail on hills it's pathetic

>>7156

I live in Washington State and I've been seeing more rollerbladers every time I go to the skate park this last year. I've also been running into more people who just started. There are more of us than you think. It's not popular but it's not dead. Look up some aggressive skate brands and watch videos.

It's named "actual skating general" because an anon bitched on another inline thread that there wasn't a general already. And the only insecure guy here is that weird dude who was called a sally, the same one who was bitching about the general.

My God the absolute cope. Skateboarding is infintely more difficult and complex than roller blading in every conceivable way. Give a 6 year old 2 hours and he'll grind down a rail on blades. It'd take a week or two to learn how to Ollie. Even longer to start hitting rails or doing flip tricks. There are probably like 100 tricks you can learn on a skateboard whereas on blades you... like... grab your heel? Grind cross legged? The only time blading is impressive is it a half pipe, but of course the skateboarder is going to steal the show. There was a reason blading was dropped from X Games for so long. It's fucking boring and you all look like faggots. Keep coping though your posts are funny.

I had a pair of these in college (found them in a thrift store), they ended up being pretty dumb, so i took the rubberbands off of them and would put them on the doorknobs of opposing doors in the dorms (they open in towards the room like a prison) then knock on both doors, these industrial rubberbands would make it near impossible to get the doors open so the people inside would be stuck playing tug of war.

teenage mentality. Also skate culture is lame and image driven.

who cares. slow boards are 100% better than fast boards.

damn imagine that you combined this with a really big umbrella so you could slowly float down, maybe got a drone that always pulled you upwards slightly so it was like low-gravity pogoing.

i love the 90s vibes these videos give off

I kind of want to buy a pair of these
I tried to get into rollerblading but I bought a pair that was somehow way too small and I don't wanna risk it on another pair

anyone else wanna buy grindshoes, link up, and travel the world to shoot a revolutionary grindshoe video and create a new extreme sports trend?

why don't the epic grind shoe faggots make a broadside model already?
having vertical and horizontal grinding would save soaping

because I imagine they'd be pretty horrible to actually walk in, plus the impact on landing would be brutal.

i guess it would be cool to be able to do "soul" tricks like mizu, etc on soap shoes.

>plus the impact on landing would be brutal.
why? genuinely asking because any information in the original broadsides or the mr wilsons is like impossible to find aside from one webpage
I don't think I've ever actually seen a video of them in use for a sole plate grind

ugliest fucking skates on earth. plus the fact that you have to use the specific, equally ugly 'shoes' that come with them defeats the purpose, most people just use them as regular skates.

Also, freestyle frames are the ugliest shit on earth. They're like training wheels.

lol
roller blades never have and never will be cool. and trying to explain why they're "actually" the most extreme!! only makes them less so. sorry bud

>>110173
pretty sure the "appeal" was that you could always wear them with no extra equipment necessary, so you could BUST A MOVE on the fly if you ever came across a good spot.
of course that type of logic mostly applies in movies and advertisements. in the real world they were just poorer skaters with uncomfortable shoes.

watch ryan juanzemis philosophy on soap. basically the point was to bring skaters bmx everyone together.. its a SIDE thing not your main thing that unites all extreme sporters together during school or whatever etc.

>>207205
makes sense

Would be cool to have a set with grind pegs on the side
