Outdoor skating is definitely a whole different ballgame. I made it for about three blocks round-trip (one at a time in three different directions from the house, consecutively), but when I get slightly tired I fall, and in falling (ten feet from my driveway) I destroyed one of my laces. Bah! Had them less than six hours. Oh well; maybe I'll put it back on with some knots in it later. For now, I am battle-scarred. Good thing I wore my pads anyway.
Z (my boyfriend) commented that if I do these things to myself, just think what damage I could inflict upon an enemy! My slogan will become, "You should see the other guy."
I still don't have a name.
But yes, we shall have to do the park, once I've mastered my own block. Ha! You can't practice your form very well in outdoor skating, but I bet it'd be great for endurance.
