PSA for my fellow olds (over 30): Do not, at any point, put a wheel between your feet and the ground unless you've been doing it consistently since you were a kid. You WILL fall, and you WILL break bones. Your opportunity to take up rollerblading, skateboarding, etc. as a hobby has passed. Accept it and move on.

bait

But for real, balancing is a skill that needs to be practised and regular exercise to strengthen your stabilising muscles is important to stay mobile in actual old age.

Ban cars! sicko-yes

Oh wait, trains have wheels. kitty-birthday-sad

Lol, I mean strapping a wheel to your feet. Cars and trains are a wheel between your ass and the ground. think-about-it

Every now and then I consider getting back into skateboarding but then I wisely remember this.

Rollerblading is pretty achievable, still, but I'm definitely not going in for wheels that are not physically attached to my body.

I broke my wrist rollerblading... If you're over 30, you've been warned.
