11/29 http://landroller.com The next generation skates on land. Skates (50s) -> Rollerblade (80s) -> Landroller (21st century) \_ see also http://freelineskates.com \_ Looks pretty rough on the ankles. BTW, in-line skates existed before quad skates--they were modeled after ice skates. \_ how is this rougher on the ankles than say, rollerblades? \_ With the support point off to the side, I'd expect a torque, but maybe the support boot puts that on the leg instead of the ankle. \_ The point where the wheels make contact with the ground is below the center of the feet, not to the sides. So this should be no different from rollerblades as far as torque is concerned. \_ Uh no. The point that they connect to the foot is on the side, so regardless of where they go after that, it's the side of the foot that's holding you up. \_ Wait, now that I look more closely, it looks like the the support point is in the middle. My bad. \_ So, does this fact support of dispute the idea that it is better/worse for your ankle -not a skater, no idea what all this means \_ I retract my concerns about ankles. \_ I thought so too, but the testimonials page says otherwise: "the out-of-line design seems to take the strain offf my ankles [no wobbles]..." \_ Look at that hot chick in white bikini and white helmet!! \_ Look at that hot busty chick in white bikini and white helmet!! Er ...... ankle? What? What did you say? |
