Haha, it was much easier to learn how to balance on the traditional rollerskates than the in-line skates / rollerblades. Ice skating and rollerblading are very similar to each other, so it isn't as hard to switch from one to the other. But learning to ice / blade from traditional rollerskating takes a while to get used to. With the rollerskates there isn't as much effort to balance your feet, and they are normally heavier, too.

I’ve only ever tried quads on in store. I remember I couldn’t stay balanced, I’m so used to inner side of the edge balancing and turns.
