Wink Anyone in here who skates?

Hi, just wondering if anyone in here skates? And if, what tricks can you pull off?

Skates? Be more specific.

Skates can be a number of things:

Ice Skating
Figure Skating
Roller Skating
Skateboarding

I assume skateboarding is what you were getting at but not everyone has an I.Q. over 85. Just suggesting... and no.

My special moves? Not falling....

Yeah, I skate. I haven't in a while now because it's been a hundred degrees every day of summer, but I'll probably pick it back up in the fall.
I can ollie, heelflip, kickflip, varial kick, 180 ollie, popshuv, nollie and nollie backside 180. I haven't done too much grinding, but I can do standard 50-50 and boardslide. I never came off and landed out of a 50-50, though. These are more like some of the tricks I've done in the past than tricks I can do everytime....especially after the long break I've taken. Oh, and I can manual and nose manny decently. I've ollied into and out of manuals.
By the way, I'd like to suggest to everyone that they give skating a try. It's one of those great sports where your opponent is yourself and it's much harder than any videogame. Even ollying is such a challenge at first.

PS Posted this from the Wii.

I skate sometimes. I don't skate, but I ride my friends boards whenever they happen to have them with them for rofls.


I can't even manage to pull off an ollie (namely because I hardly ever skateboard)... seeing me fly off the board and onto my back is always good for a few laughs though.

I try. But I just prefer to find a steep hill, and roll down.

Who needs skateboards when you have a segway?

I'd like to see you do a backflip on a segway...
