deea 0 #5 April 20, 2006 Take shoes. Maybe just a pair of flip flops or something easy to carry. I've been asked to take my rollerblades off in stores a few times. They usually assume that if you're on rollerblades you're just gonna go around at really high speed and run into everyone and everything and make a big big mess. It really pisses me off Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SkiD_PL8 0 #7 April 20, 2006 Take shoes but just go in on your blades. If they ask you to remove the blades just change. Then you will know for next time. Greenie in training. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

popsjumper 2 #11 April 20, 2006 Forget the shoes...you'll be in and out so fast they won't even notice...and if they do I'm sure they'll let you skate on that one.

You'll go flying, it won't be pretty. Hope you are wearing pads. You should hang out at that college. College chics dig military men.

jumpjunkie2004 0 #18 April 20, 2006 Quotebtw:I can't go too fast yet because it's only my second time on them... Proceed with caution : ) and always carry a cell phone. At ten of five on a Friday, the body shop told me that I could come over and get my car. If I didn't get it before five, I'd have to wait until Monday. The body shop was about a mile and 1/2 from my house. I knew that I couldn't run there that fast. So, I had a great idea. I'll ROLLERBLADE! Put my wallet in my back pocket and went out the door. Bladed as fast as I could on this path that I thought would lead right through the shopping center near my house. I felt so clever. I'm taking a short cut! However, the paved path turned into gravel and then just compressed dirt and then back in to gravel. Walking on the gravel in rollerblades was super slow. If I wanted to make it in time, I had to get off the path and down into the parking lot. I started down a steep hill of compressed dirt and broke my ankle : ( I crawled down the hill to the service road behind the shopping center. No cell phone. No people. Eventually a construction worker happened by and lent me his phone. Interesting...it turns out I didn't really need my car for the weekend. It was a clutch and I had broken my left ankle : (Jump, Land, Pack, Repeat... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
