I've ice skated plenty of times and I still suck. The last time, I learned a new trick. I can't do any of that fancy skating backwards and then swithcing forwards stuff, but I learned that if I'm skating forward and that I jump up in the air and turn 180 degrees that half the time I don't fall down right away. I did this while sailing down the ice one time and when I landed, I somehow ended up with all my weight on one foot that slid sideways, and all of my forward momentum was somehow (I still don't understand it entirely) transferred into upward momentum sending higher into the air than I could ever hope to jump. Basketball players don't get that much hang time. I was up there forever. Then I landed sideways with my forearm, elbow, and knee taking the brunt of it. People who weren't watching turned around to see what the noise is. If you've never ice skated, ice is just as hard as concrete. Anyhow, my brother didn't see it either, and although I played it off as if I wasn't in pain, he was laughing at me after seeing me get up and knowing I was okay because he KNEW it hurt like hell since the noise wasn't what made him turn around but the violent vibration that he felt through his skates when I hit the ground... and he was almost halfway across the length of the thing away from me. So basically, I tried to do something at top speed and it stopped all my forward momentum and sent me up into the air, I landed, and that made the ice vibrate enough to stop everyone and make them think "What the hell was that? Did something expldde?" The exact manuver that I pulled off that day is still a mystery to everyone but God becauseif it wasn't, we'de be seeing women in the Olympics catupulting themselves upwards in triple quadrupral spins and then landing it right with the help of their skate partner.

Seeing as that 'request' is a thread stopper a new question will start: TPBM has fallen off a skateboard or skates.  |

Nope. I may have randomly stood on a skateboard a few times, but I've never actually used one. I never tripped while rollerskating though (and I've only ever done that once).
TPBM REALLY wants to do something that everybody else seems to have already done. |
