This is a video of two rollerbladers doing their best Autobots impression and transforming and rolling out as a car. That looks like a good time. Probably more so being the driver than the car though, because I have no core strength and would have just run over my own
This is a video of a young rollerblader demonstrating her incredible balance by skating (and spinning around) on a single wheel. That’s wild! For reference, last weekend I tried riding my bike for a few seconds without holding the handlebars and time traveled to a future where I woke up
This is a video of professional inline skater Ilia Savosin (previously seen riding office chair wheels like skates) testing the pair of vacuum cleaners he modded into rollerblades.

This is a video of rollerblader AIR DAMON performing a high speed basketball dunk off a ramp for some insanely high flying, ball slamming action. That was nuts. Also, they should totally start a rollerblading basketball league. Or maybe one already exists, I don’t know, I have bad ankles. I
