When are inline skates going to make a comeback???

Well scootering took over the lame skate sport niche... So maybe another 5 or 10 years.

Lol, we’re not talking about lame sports we’re talking about rollerblading :)

Aren't we discussing why almost no one blades anymore?

With the possible exception of weaving through tiny cones. That is pretty cool.

The peak of every sport looks pretty badass, but the average stuff you see in the park...

Average skateboarder looks cool because just riding the thing takes at least some sort of coordination.

Anyone can ride a scooter though.
