I am in my 30s and want to try out rollerskating. I’d love any plus-sized friendly advice you all may have for me!

Any brands I should look for? Good instructional videos? Tips on where to go to practice safely?

Thanks!

Thank you! I’m excited to get started. Haven’t had a lot a free time but the next few weeks look good!

Welcome to Fediverse-central for your quad skating or inline skating progress, tricks, and photos.

A note on rollerskating terms:

“Rollerskating” is the broad term for many varieties of wheeled, two-boot skating
“Quad skating” is the term for the classic, four-wheeled rink skates that we all know and love. The wheels are arranged in a rectangle like a skateboard.
“Inline skating” is the term for skates where the wheels are all in a straight line. Most rollerblades have four wheels per boot like quad skates, but some have three or five wheels per boot.
“Rollerblade” is the original inline skate company, but not a general term for inline skates. However, sometimes the brand name is used as a general term for inline skates.

Unlike the reddit (eww) version of this community, c/Rollerskating is entirely open to all skate varieties!
