Say, it's been a while since I tried it for the first time. But I was just wondering about if I was doing something correctly the first time around. That is...when you skate around the Rink in a line with other skaters, holding one hand each, one skater facing the back of the other. Does anyone know if my blades should be toe to heel? Or side by side,like going on Edges? In which case if I can turn Rink corners on my Edges..I SHOULD be able to do that? As I had my blades toe to heel last time. Would that more then likely be why I feel out of line easy? Am I right at saying that all it is..is JUST skaters on their Edges multiplied? Thanks.

Hi FSWer

I have never skated with another skating person like you would. However, in my old rink in London, I did one time have a girl asked me to skate with her, but she kept on holding the back of my tracksuit. That was really terrifying, as if she fell, I was sure to have gone down with her. :roll: Luckily, she did not fall. :lol:
