Summary: Fantastic, Funny, and Fully-detailed look at Skating
Comment: Best book on the subject that I have seen. Very funny, often irreverent, while at the same time giving full information and great hand-drawn pictures on how to accomplish all the moves of inline skating from beginner to intermediate and beyond. Very good sections on turning, braking, crashing, etc. and the author seems to know more synonymns for the expression "excrement" (said before every crash) than most of us have heard. I am an older skater and thought this book was just what the Doctor ordered for all who are attracted by the fun and fitness of skating. I think most out there who want to improve or are interested in blading will love this book. It will get you motivated and back on your wheels again!

Summary: A better book if it's printed instead of doodling text.
Comment: The first inline skating book I come across deals with real life situation. I just moved to Atlanta from priers. I was used to plat park. Here in Atlanta, I haven't found a place where are no steep hills. Being inexperienced to slope, I took a hard fall. It put me out of action for a month. The section about down hill is lifesaver for me.
It's a good book.
But, I hate the presentation of the book. It's so damn hard to read. Have you ever attempted to figure out the description that your doctor gave to you? Image a whole book of those scribbles. My brain hurts when I read this damn book. Plus pages after pages autonomy incorrect cartoon figures to show the fancy moves. I believe I'll fall harder if I try to learn a power slide stop from this book.
If the book was typed and with photo pictures of real skater, it would be an excellent 5 out of 5 book. Now I give it 3 out of 5 because of its shabby production.

Summary: Contains Unnecessarily Vulgar Language
Comment: The book uses plenty of detailed sketches to provide all of the techniques you'll need to know, and then some. The content of the book is more than sufficient to enable someone to become a proficient inline skater, and is easily understandable. Unfortunately, the book is equally thorough in its use of profanity, making it unsuitable for my kids to see. A book about skating that is too profane for kids to see? Give me a break . . .
