Rollerblading @ East Coast

[Repty]

Hi all, I am new here. Had been to east coast beach recently and here are some shots of the sliders there.
Also my first time trying out panning. All comments welcomed.
Personally, i feel that using a 55-200mm would have produced better results. (All shots were taken with 18-55mm)
Will update this thread with more photos when i go there again.
(Practice does help alot with my shots)

This is not called rollerblading......rollerblade is a brand not a sport. This sport is call inline skating!!:sweat:

And to those who are taking up the sports, please do not skate like those people in the photos without protective gears. No matter how good your skills are, accidents happen and even more serious on those who are confident and think they can skate well. Remember to SLAP

S - Skate Smart, wear your protective gears. Especially the helmet.
L - Skate Legal, do not skate on roads, void decks and pedestrian walk way and etc.
A - Skate Alert, notice your surroundings, watch out for potential danger.
P - Skate Polite, smile as you skate, clap to notify other user that you are passing him or her by saying "passing your right".

As an inline skating instructor, I never skate without protective gears.:nono:NEVER!

Good to hear that you keep to the rules even as an experienced skater and instructor.
Many an instructors, I find, take the easy way out still... skating without helmets, without elbow guards and such once they are off duty.

And it is after you mention this 'passing your right' that I finally understood what the Ang Moh speed skater who regularly appears in East Coast Parkway was trying to shout out to the fellow skaters/cyclists!
