Where do you go? My street is too bumpy. There is one paved bike trail near my house but the hills are too steep. WHen I go down the hill I can't stop or slow down!!! Can someone recommend somewhere in Suffolk County?
Thanks

To slow down, use your break on hte back of the skate or form a T (well a reverse T) using the straighter skate to slow you down. It's easy if you practice a little.
I know... LOL... It doesn't work when I am going full speed down a hill

Re: Who Rollerblades?
Hi, I'm jumping in. I just got new inline skates. I've been taking ice skating lessons all winter and wanted to skate outside as well. I'm in CA but wish I could go skating with all of you.
I bought all of the protective gear: helmet, wrist guards, knee and elbow pads. My husband would not let me go out without wrist pads. I'm glad: I fell down forward pretty quick and landed on my hands, then getting back up I fell on my butt I'm sure I looked like a comedy show..
Oh so much fun!!!
