    It wasn't my intention to turn this into a rollerblade vs. skateboarding thing. And I didn't mean to come off the way I did before. Skateboarding is dope as hell. As is BMX. I'm down with anyone and everyone out there in the streets hucking themselves at shit. No matter what you are riding on its all the same to me. One love.

    If you downtalk rollerblading though I'm gonna speak on it. Its moved far beyond skateboarding or bmx simply because the rollerblades are attached to your feet. Now this one of the main reasons people think its so lame. But really they become an extension of your body and give you the ability to maneuver in a way that is otherwise unattainable. Rollerblades give you wings. They allow you to move freely, unlike skateboarding or bmx where you have to concentrate on the object you are riding on.

    And I'm not saying that skateboarding or bmx is any less for this reason. They are just different. I am saying that because of this difference rollerblading can be taken to a much high level.

    All in my opinion of course.
