Skatas hatin on Bladas?

Hey, sorry, i didn't really know where to put this cuz theres no blading part..

anyways. My friend and I just got new agressive skates. He used to go all the time then stopped for some reason. Then i mentioned wanting some so we both snagged a pair (his didnt fit him anymore). Likewise - we wanted to hit up the skatepark. So his dad drove us to the burton place in burlington (where he works) and we rode the mini and the bowl. I made lots of fprogress for my first day - dropped in and stalled the mini and lower parts in the bowl.

There were only us and maybe 10 different boarders throughout the day. Awesome first day.

So we go again 2 days later. All is goin well i drop in on the tallest part of the bowl. feelin pretty good about my self. then a couple skaters keep eyin us and then lookin back at eachother laughin and shit.

then ones like "the rollerskaters trash the pipe with lame marks. I mean, 'bladersss'" and laughh with a friend.

so my friend did the same thing about the boarderss.

I mean all we were trying to do was go have some fun and we totally had the impression we were NOT welcome there. i know it is a snowboard company thus many skaters - but still.

Anyone else have simiar probs? There just arent enough agressive inliners around here. we need to get a shitload and then all go skate that bowl. instead of 2 bladers versus 10 skatass. but yea, it just doesnt have the turnout it used to and we really dont get "ACCEPTED" by other.

ok there goes my boring assmonday night. honestly i have nothing better to do now so i typed that whollee shit out...

Actually us "bladers" were originally called skaters. Skateboaders stole our name because we gave it up and wanted to call our sport "aggressive inline". Cop Barely Dead and you'll see what I'm talking about.

I've been rollerblading since 95 and in my 12 years of rolling I've seen many come and go, and I have to say, it's stuff like what happened to you that weeded out the people who were only doing it to be "cool". Do it because you like it and shit like that will just roll off your back. As someone already said, rollerblading seems to be the most hated on sport (aside from skiboarding). Anyway, we all had to start somewhere, the more you do it, the more you'll progress and you'll notice those skateboarders that talked shit will remain doing the same ole stagnant tricks.

I'll get off my soapbox now.

A few of the guys that skate there are lust plain deush bags.
The first few times we skated there the guys there where chill, we where all ripping it up, they said to come back anytime as long as there was people there and the gate was open feel free to come hit it up. We a had a few more sessions and then one time we skated and from the get go got mad attitude. None of us where being deushbags, and where actaully hanging back a bit and not dropping in a ton. But then one of the guys got all in our face and said that since we were not with any one from the company at the time (i do know people that work there) that we had to leave. It a really nice bowl, but i hate dealing with all the hate i get there.

exactly man. the first day they were fine then the 2nd time we went was when we got the crap. But were not gonna stop going - i mean my buddys dad works there so i dont think they can kick us out - and he can always open it for us. But even on the second day we didnt go too much cause we didnt wanna hog the bowl and get shit. but yea its a really nice bowl.

I honestly didn't read the thread at all. When i saw the title i was like " Whats a bladas? Skatas? Its always weird to hear these kids from other country talk in their native language on NS. " But then i realised that it was just HORRIBLE grammer.

most skaters who hate on bladers just suck at skating themselves. the skaters with any talent or self respect shouldnt mess with you.

we dont want our sport to be called rollerblading or aggressive inline we want it to be called freestyle rolling.

Dude, NO ONE wants it to be called "freestyle rolling". That's just some term that |B|Unique (or is it dipskate?) came up with. Ask anyone on be-mag or rollernews and they'll tell you that's a stupid way to refer to "rolling"
