I still have 5 days until I get my cast off and I am antsy as heck. If you ever need or want to talk, honestly, I'm here for you. This was the first real bone I've ever broken and I'm hoping against everything it is the last. Best of luck with your recovery! Just try to take it as easy as you can and cry whenever you need to over whatever you need to (even if it's because you dropped your goat cheese on the floor and your dog got it before you could because of your crutches 😅).

Now a matured lady... got roller skates (moxi beach bunny stoked 💁🏻‍♀️)... but when for my first solo site and did not wear protective gear; wore a helmet thou), but hit a rock and fell. My right knee is messed up and my right hand as well. Am out of commission for a week or so. But pumped to get back there again. So... as first timer, or any timer... wear ur protective gear.

Thid advice is a lifesaver! Got my skates in the mail yesterday and spent the whole evening getting my stride down in little laps in my room! Bending down definitely saved me from falling many a time! IDK if this helps anyone else with their stride but my dad gave some great advice that really helped me: If you've ever ice skated, striding in roller skates is essentially the same thing (especially if you're used to skates with toe picks) Who knew skating and skating would be so similar?

I LOVE your vibes. I grew up with skates being part of my daily wardrobe. However I'm taking inline skates. Once rollet blades came out in 89' I think made the switch. Back then it was frowned apon to bring your outdoor skates to a rink, so i was back on regular for a party and found myself baffled how different it felt having switched some 3 years prior. NEVER wanting to go to traditional skates again until 3 weeks ago, now i have a lovely new pair and am embracing this new adventure. Glad to have found your channel. Personality it a big plus for me. You make me motivated and smiley.

Yes! I busted my ass at the rink last week! Instead of bending my knees & getting low when I lost my balance, I stood all the way up. My “fail Friday” fall was played over and over again by my middle school students. Mind you a student is the one who recorded it and talked me into doing a race in the first place & my mind told me I could (another NO NO for a beginner). Watch it in IG Reels @tippybeeskating so you won’t make the same mistake.
