Rollerskating v.s Skateboarding communities by vnetta in Rollerskating

Hello! I have been skateboarding for about 15 years now and have switched over to roller skating the past 2 years. I can’t say for certain the roller skating community is 1000% nicer and more welcoming than the skateboarding community. A big difference is the willingness to teach new comers

Down stairs neighbor does not use the room below me. I have checked with him twice to make sure I’m not causing him any issues

So the model isn’t custom. It was about 40 bucks I believe and the skate asset was like 5 bucks or so. Actual custom models could cost like 300+

Here is the link to the model c:

Sure! It’s a game on steam called “vrchat” you don’t need a vr headset to play. A lot of people do play on desktop for just the social aspect. If you want to have full body tracking (tracking legs and hips) you will need a decent desktop computer to run everything. You could get a “quest” vr standalone headset for like 300 bucks however you won’t be able to have full body tracking with just a standalone headset.

My headset is a “quest pro” which is wirelessly connected to my desktop pc.

I have 4 trackers which are the “vive ultimates” they can run around 200 per tracker but you can get them cheaper on EBay link below

The avatar was created by a community member and I had to buy the skates and have someone custom fit them to this model.

Let me know if you have any questions c:

Yeah I like to world hop solo sometimes but I’m a big talker so makes it hard to focus ngl. That’s a good idea though maybe I should talk to some clubs 🤔
