Backwards Faris on Serpentine Road

My friend Faris doing his thing. He's actually considerably faster than this, I caught him when he was tired from skating a lot already. He's so smooth and fast!

It's just missing some funky 70's tunes. Impressive....I fancy a go.....going forwards though. :)

@MelloVEL0 if you make it up to London, give us a shout and I'll try to set up a free lesson for you. You'll just have to rent the kit or bring your own.

@lsmike I had a feeling you'd say that Mikey! :-D

@downfader2 £80? That's skate-shaped-object territory mate. Most top end skates seem to be between £200-400, and a good pair of custom speedskates will come closer to the grand.

@HLaB75 I wouldnt even get that far *blush*

[downfader2]

@MelloVEL0 They were selling a set in one of the local shops here. £80 a pair!

:-o

Cool, I think I would get as far as the first instep (or whatever they call it) and trip up :-)

[MelloVEL0]

@lsmike Oooh, thanks very much. :-) I've never tried the inline skates(just the spaced out four wheeled types) Can you rent them in the Park? I was actually looking how much they go for yesterday on Amazon, not sure if they were any good. So you might get a shout later in the year! (Bring the Recumbent too! :-D )
