do all the skaters here take out their rubber brakes on the skates?

its cheaper to change brake pads(if you can find them) then to change a whole set of wheels...

so it only make sense to stick to your brake pad, and its safer also...

Take out only if you're confident in stopping without the brake pad.

 

Learn stopping skills & dump those brake pads!

I rather stop with brake pad and then wheels....

 

Wheels are more expensive....

[learner]

i think its difficult to stop with wheels oso.

stopping with brake pad is easier... but must lift the leg higher when skating otherwise sometime will accidentally get stuck on the floor and coz us to lose balance rite?

Perhaps these monthly night skates will interest you (no activity during rainy season though)?

Yeah. I'm one of a handful of Daytonas in SG. If the rider is a shorty, skinny & specky fellow ... likely that's me. I love both blading and biking!

No lah, I'm not rich enough to go buy single digit no. plate. My no. plate's the normal 4-digit one, FBA XXXX D. I know another guy on the Daytona is a trackster, while I'm more of a tourer.

[learner]
