Re: Inline skating
I wanted to learn skating, but due to lack of encouragement I just backed out from buying the skates.
I am assuming that you guys already know skating !!
It would be nice if someone could give me tips/brief me about places where I could learn.
Cheers.

Like everything else they are more expensive in Finland. I dunno how to learn other than putting them on and giving them a go. I used to ice skate as a kid though so I think that helped a lot. Maybe try practicing somewhere where there is something to grab onto when you feel like falling. I taught my 4 year old son in an empty swimming pool in a nearby park where he could hold on to the sides.

Re: Inline skating
Hi,
At the end of August i'll be fetching my roller blades from home and I would love to join. Can you please let me know, when and how you are organising "outings" ?
Many thanks.

Re: Inline skating
Do you know any place where inline skating groups meet?
Re: Inline skating
Nothing got organized due to a lack of response. PM me or reply to this thread if you want to go rollerblading around Helsinki sometime.
