That’s awesome bud. Keep on keeping on. Most gained a few during the pandemic, feels great to get back out and moving. Not sure how old you are but do you remember back in the day when you strapped them skates to your shoes with the little metal key? Metal wheels, man what a trip.

Nah, grew up in the 80s, by then the wheels were plastic and strapped to our shoes with velcro. :grin:

Haha! Sweet! I totally thought you were joking. Roller skating… Shit… I can’t even remember the last time I did that. I’ve definitely gained a few pounds, too, since last year. We’ve got a full-on gym in the garage, usually I just lift weights, but I’ve been slacking the last month or so. It’s been too hot lately to get in there.

But maybe I’ll hit the roller rink… Those are air-conditioned, right? Haha!

Yeah, I was born in 1971 so I got to play on metal wheels, lol. Man the slightest dampness and those things would slide everywhere. If you didn’t break a bone they were real fun. Shake the teeth right out of your head going down pavement :slight_smile:

Morning everyone! Congrats to the winners! And thanks @ReikoX for the amazing Friday giveaways!!! Used to skateboard too… Kick-Flips, nose wheel, 720 degrees to more spin? Always loved it!! Kinda miss it to be honest!! Kryptonics wheels were a sensation at the time, though as a teen I had even witnessed the birth of polyurethane… Awesome times!!! :sunglasses: :clap: :clap: :clap: :hugs:
