    Recently came across some inline skating competition videos on YouTube.

    Never seen anything like it before. I am not surprised that this sort of inline skating competition exists, but I am very surprised to find that it has reached this level of athleticism and artistry!

    Example:

      I did not agree with her choice to knock the cup over at :40, but I am glad we live in America where she has the right to make such choices. Other than that I thought her performance was great. Thanks for posting that Ax.

      Education is extremely important.

            Really impressive. I didn't know this was a thing either.

            However, the first thing that struck me, even before she started her routine is how out-of-place those clunky "skates" look so huge on her small body.

            The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

              Why bother with the ice skating outfit? Doesn’t look like ice skating at all and is a perfect opportunity to sport a more athletic look.
