i played roller hockey in the past, but the other day i went rollerblading w/ a couple of my blader friends. I had never really 'aggressively' rollerbladed, anmd after like an hour i was doing soul grinds, and makkios, and some other grinds.
Is it possible that rollerblading in the off season and when im not skiing could help me with my skiing? has anyone tried this or seen rollerbladers (good ones) ski? just wondering...

umm whats his name... i forget, but it influences your style and im not sure if thats good or bad. It definately definately helped me do half pipe thx to back when i was like 5, on the local 1/4 pipe, just do it in the summer, + aggressive inline is pretty hardcore
If I had more energy, I'd burn that young mans face

it helps a lot, that's why i started rollerblading. after booting during the summer i learned unnatty and switch ups both ways in like 5 tries. it also helps if you're into 1 footed slides so far i can royal, farvignugen, fast slide, back slide, 5050 and soul consistantly and i almost have switch 5050s.

I have been skating for 5 years and it has helped a ton. If anything, i have a great center of balance. Also, I learned how to crash on concrete, so crashing on snow doesn't scare me nearly as much.
