Inline Skating


I am not a sports man, but when I saw boys and girls above age 5 flying on wheels in ECP and Pasir Ris beach sides, made me to do this like them. Inspired too much of their alertness, style and speed i bought a pair of inline skating shoes, helmet and knee/elbow guards. My friend taught me the basics of skating - how to wear this shoes, how to getup, V - shape standing position, leg movement, usage of brake, precautions etc...


After 3-4 training sessions with the help of my wife, i am now able to skate alone without any help with a very limited speed. I discovered the Fun within this sport and is a good exercise for backbone and legs. Trying to pull my friends too in this sport to add more fun. Our group of Jolly walkers is now doing Jolly swimming every week (saturday). Slowly we will move to Jolly Skaters... in the near future.


Will write more on this fun event in upcoming blogs.
