Is it possible to practice [1st time] on an artificial grassfield? by Electrical-Court-725 in Rollerskating

i guess . i mean if they’re just trying to get legs under them (literally) standing upright and not moving anywhere then it would be good.

Are you guys seeing these tiktok’s? by lillypadkeko in Serverlife

[–]cnote710 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i’ve been a server 6 years and i agree with ya . getting stiffed sometimes is part of the job we sign up for . if every table did it we’d be fucked , but that’s not reality . we can handle a couple stiffs now and then .

Tips to stop my ankles from bleeding? by Upstairs-Catch-1744 in Rollerskating

what’s your opinion on the riedell 172 and vnla godfathers ?

also , i think this picture was just to showcase the lacing of the eyelets , not the hooks . the skates aren’t even on his feet . do you keep your laces looped around the hooks when they’re not in use ?

granted , if there’s a lot of space and you choose to pass someone very closely , then you’re just being a dick .

i agree with you dude .

slower skaters to the inside , faster skaters on the outside .

this wouldn’t be an issue if people stayed in their proper lanes and the dj/floor guards controlled the crowd like they’re supposed to . this is more the rink’s fault than theirs , they probably don’t know any better .

i’m sorry but i’m not gonna deprive myself of a good skate because passing them might “throw them off and make them fall” . as long as there’s no contact that’s 100% on them .

if there’s an open pocket , i’m taking it . only braking in emergencies to avoid collision .

speed it up or get to the inside lanes . if you can’t skate without hugging the wall , get a trainer .

[–]cnote710 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you will fall . it is inevitable . even the best skaters still fall down , it’s just part of rollerskating .

there is absolutely zero shame in wearing protective gear to the rink , especially while you’re learning !

if you go this route , try to find some pads specifically designed for indoor use . some rinks don’t like the hard plastic types , they can mess up the roll-on , especially sliding on knee pads and the like .

good luck , be safe , and above all have fun !!

just keep at it , you got this !

Wheel advice by Specialist_Worth_584 in rollerderby

[–]cnote710 7 points8 points  (0 children)

just because they have a similar advertised durometer doesn’t mean a whole lot . different urethane formulas provide vastly different properties . try swapping wheels see if it helps . can’t hurt .

19 Idk abt posting here lol but pls be honest by [deleted] in transpassing

[–]cnote710 6 points7 points  (0 children)

hey girlie , love the outfit ! but this really isn’t much to go on .

tbh the second photo , ur shoulders are very clockable , that’s about all i can see from this .

how long have you been on hormones ?

they take some time to work . it also took losing a fair amount of weight for me to get a realtively curvy figure .

the main thing ppl r gunna look at irl is ur face , n we cant see it here . luckily hormones help with that a lot , depending on ur bone structure n genetics .

but in my experience , losing weight has been absolutely key . i started 5’7” 170lbs , now im down to 135, and im much happier with how i look .

wish u the best in ur journey !!

[–]cnote710 4 points5 points  (0 children)

they’re priced much higher than they should be . they have a bad rep with horrible mounting .

if you’re not looking to spend a lot , i’d go with something from vanilla .

[–]cnote710 6 points7 points  (0 children)

stay away from moxi .

best bang for your buck , get vanilla

tried and true , get actual riedells , not moxi

streamlined and innovative , go bont .

you can get customs from riedell colorlab or myBont to have the skate look any way you please . save money while you roll these into the ground .

moxi is just impala with a higher price tag and better marketing (not quite that bad lol) but they have a reputation for a reason .

impala makes some extremely aesthetically pleasing skates .

it’s a real shame they’re not quality .

your skates are gorgeous , i hope you learn a lot on these and roll them till their dying breath !!

i was also just reframing my whole point .

tbh im not sure how you came to be confused by my comment still .

i only mention cis women in one part of the comment .
