Roller skating/blading as an adult

Im in my 30s and I've played roller derby for years! Hadn't put skates on for well over a decade before I took it up. I love it!

Would definitely recommend getting yourself padded up to help protect yourself from any falls. Remember to keep your knees bent, it'll help your balance and if you fall you'll go forwards onto your pads, rather than backwards on your bum! Outdoor wheels are also a must if you're heading outside, otherwise it gets all a bit rattley in your shins!
