TIL: Don't use Araldite to repair skates. It's not flexible enough and makes the problem worse when it breaks. Sigh.

Can anyone recommend better glue that can take the compression and strain?

Shred the Patriarchy: Chantal Pinzi

#India, the world’s most populous country, with 1.4 billion people, has only a handful of female skaters. It is here that Shred the Patriarchy comes to life, portraying how – facing prejudice and threats – some women have rebelled, transforming skateboarding into a form of resistance against the patriarchy, through the art of falling and getting back up.

The profound sadness of an early spring.

We've moved to a much more hilly area, so #rollerblading was feeling quite treacherous on my 3x110 frames. I've switched back to 4x80 and I feel a lot more in control. Plus these light up

This has been on my feed for a long time and I never watched it, but I'm glad I did.
She's not the thinnest, or the most technical skater I have ever seen, but from the music (Donna Summer's Mac Arthur park) which got the audience clapping. To the relaxed attitude of someone who was said to have given up #skating and came back.

It was so nice to see someone have a VERY GOOD DAY.

Cool places…
Not matter if you fall on your knees.

There was just barely enough snow on the lake for #skiing. I could have skated. Someone ice #fishing had caught two big perches and a little pike.

I wish I had a river I could skate away on.
