Reminds me of myself, when I decided to take roller skating lessons. I never skated as a kid, but my daughter was taking lessons, and it looked like fun and good exercise. I’ve never been too athletic, but I’m not hopelessly uncoordinated either.
After a few weeks I felt like I was starting to get the hang of it. Then one Saturday morning I was putting on my skates. I was sitting on a bench, in the carpeted area outside the rink, and when I was done I stood up. I barely took a step before falling backwards and breaking my wrist. End of my roller skating days.

Reminds me of the last time I tried roller skating. Hope he can stop before running into the wall.

I trained myself to ice skate and roler skate in one go each.
