Its my spanking new K2, Softboots Inline Skates!
Yes - For those wondering aloud if I can skate. I can.
Its just that as many things in life, skating is also graded... And I happen to be on the lower end of that scale - a self learned recreational skater. The last time I own a pair of skates and skated was in Secondary 3! So its not hard to imagine when I first tried on the skates in the shop earlier, how scary everything was. Especially when this round, I'm buying a intermediate range of skates (read: better wheel size, better bearings, better frame, but at a good discount. Haha).
But it all turned out well. I realised I remembered everything about skating, except how to brake. Which happens to be the most important thing.
So its going to take a while (just time) and hopefully not take down any passerby.
I got Mrs Neo a TRix, which I felt was a good exercise scooter - safe and all. I got Mum a foldable bike. A pair of Skates for myself. I'm now looking forward to a whole lot of a healthier us.
