Good plan
I forget if I have any. Do you know of any good skate shops in holloway/angel?

Although, having said that, I have never stacked it.
I guess I could skate around a few times without them.

I think, when you stack it (and everyone does), for every 3 miles per hour you're going, that's the equivilent of your body weight going onto your wrist joints.
So if you're going at 9 miles and hour, that's four times your body weight going straight onto your wrists.

Yeah
and I'm not as light as I used to be. Thanks for the advice. I won't skate until I get the pads.

I'm so far out of that game, that I can't remember.
I think there is somewhere around Covent Garden, maybe camden, google will be your friend.
Or if you wanna head down our way, there is Skate Attack, and then you can go onto Trent Park for some good skating times.

Quads or Inlines?

Quads? Do you think I'm a gay?
I have Salomon ST8s.

You gotta have quite powerfull legs to be a quad skater, they're a lot more heavy.
Plus when watching the hockey, it's always the inliners who tend to be more gracefull.
Personaly, I quite like quads, as long as no prick has put stoppers on them.

I've always been an inline guy
because I always wanted to aggressive skate. I wasn't fearless enough for it though.

I used to have a half-pipe in my garden, only one person ever managed to do a drop-in (it wasn't me).
You're right, you can't really aggresive-skate on quads, well, you can, but they'll never be as good as the inliners. The figures skating seems better on the quads though.

That's bullshit actually.
Most 'on skates' things, like Disney, are mostly quads.

Or at least, it used to be.
Starlight Express is/was all on quads.
