I hadn’t worn roller skates since I was a kid but when I moved to Venice Beach, I rented a pair of roller blades for the day. I got as far as Lincoln Blvd. Coming back was downhill. I was stopping by grabbing onto stop signs and telephone poles. A guy walking by hailed me and spent five minutes showing me how to drag-brake with one skate. He said he was late for work but didnt’ want to read in the newsspaper that I had been run over by a truck. Nice guy.
Why would it bother him? I see people of all sizes and ages skating outdoors on the paved trail our park system put in. I’m a senior, and I rollerblade right along with them.

I’d suggest searching YouTube for “pink panther tickled pink” to see what could go wrong with roller skates

And if you sold him some ice skates they’d be ice breakers.
