Skate 5

12.2.11 skating rink again. It has been raining most of the weekend, so the rink was about our only option. It turned out to be an off night for me. The rink was really slow and I was excited to see so few kids to be in my way but about three laps in I started hearing those familiar sounds. Yet again another hub bites the dust. I switched to my Bauers but there is a fit issue with them that continues to give me trouble. They are about 12 or 13 years old and have seen many a mile so I guess they have been worth the $100 I paid for them.

I ordered 4 more wheels to replace out the broken wheels as well as the others that I'm sure will go soon too. I also ordered some K2 Moto 84 for rink skates.

Even with the skate troubles I still managed to get in 2 hours of skating, all be it at a slower speed then I like to be training at.
