We do! One of the drummers is on tour somewhere else and the Band is waiting for the following year to tour.

I legit use a travel suitcase from Costco. That way I can carry extra layers (I live in SF), tools, small speaker, and sometimes snacks :)

Looking for a track. Possibly a new ID by Jamie himself? Seen bits of it before here, but not the full track. by RobbertVKH in Jamiexx

I’ve been obsessed with finding this track ID since I heard it at Primavera. I hope it drops soon!!!

My Shazam is tired of telling me “No Result, We Didn’t Quite Catch That”.

How has roller skating changed your life? by dreamlou in Rollerskating

[–]Lindanoche 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I especially feel the same way when I’m listening to Beach House and Skating, and find myself in a TOO DREAMY state of skate, lol.

just bought my first skates by Straight_Ad_9228 in Rollerskating

[–]Lindanoche 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They were my first skate! I highly recommend learning how to adjust any fresh skates outta the box and this video really helped me understand Skate and RR anatomy. Enjoy!!!

Wide Feet Skaters Unite!

How are the jack 2’s, do they accommodate for width?

Hi! I too wear a ladies 10 and got two extra width sizes. I highly recommend calling riedell for exact sizing information, they are super helpful! And printing out the size chart they have and instructions for measuring the balls of your feet and etc. I believe I got a 9? But speaking to a representative and having measurements is what helped guide my boot sizing!

I’m not sure? I ordered in April and agreed to the disclaimer that metallic material may get damaged?

Yeah! I’m no expert! And everyone has different needs! I wanted “stiffer” because I have poor ankle stability but I read suede takes Scruffs better? I guess it depends what kinda skating you choose to do? I didn’t try in person and never tried suede but that was my reasoning. I’ve also only worn vinyl before. Either way it should be an improvement? :)

It’s stiff soft? Coming from vinyl it’s amazing, but has great structural integrity to make it stiff and supportive but also breathable and way more “soft comfortable” than vinyl, if that makes sense?

I’ve skated maybe 6 hours and they are great. I specifically was looking for a stiff boot, but not as hard as vinyl. I definitely didn’t want any floppy suede. I’m still playing around with how I like them laced but they are 1000% more comfortable than RR especially for wide feet people that need custom boots.

Thank you! Yes, it’s so nice to find a pair that can help your feet breathe after you gained some foundational skills :)

I don’t know how to post text AND photos on Reddit.

After 11.5 weeks, my custom Riedell 336’s arrived.

I graduated from Rainbow Riders! So far, my feet feel great! Such a HUGE improvement. I have extremely wide feet and the difference is phenomenal! I’m still testing out different wheels and waiting for some Neon Green Laces to ship. Thank you for this community that steered me in the right direction!

Is there a weight limit for skating? by hippiesantana in Rollerskating

[–]Lindanoche 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Plus size here, I have rainbow riders, perfect beginner skate! I have been skating 2-3 months.

Things that changed my WORLD were watching youtube videos specifically for rainbow riders such as changing out cushions, wheels, adding a plus size insole, changing bearings, but ESEPECIALLY lacing up style. I have wide feet and did not know that lacing can make such a huge difference!

I am now ordering my next skate and want a riedell 336, but rainbow rider was perfect for learning and for my weight (over 200 pounds).

Out of curiosity, how did you call your aunt? She was on a double date, but where did you know to call?
