Ah I see! Yeah Its pretty cool to brake on aggressives now xD and because of them, they're more manueverable to use than regular inlines. Especially for jumping off of high places and grinds! They're not as fast, but I have to admit they pick up speed pretty quickly, and Im enjoying every night's practice so far. Its been 3 days so far Lucky you i have to wait next school year to get my new ones my big bro is forcing me to wait and not get my own with my own money Hey man no worries, this gives you time to save up and see which kind of blades match your style. x) I also had to wait for mine (for about 3 months) so I definitely feel your pain

Hmm... Theae roads are seeming more like goals and competition than to be naturally obtained. xD

I think the point is to see what you naturally do anyway, then set goals on top of them to push that style even harder and develop it into something wicked

There is no such thing as accomplishing a goal in skating just beacuse you learned the basics and a lil more dosent mean you should stop pushing yourself to the limit. push yourself pass your own capability learn to never have bounds be able to adapt to all forms of skating not just what you know be creative and have fun a charismatic rider is a loved rider a knowledgable rider is a feared rider.

Forgot to mention that my post meant that for what I was seeing with the other posts, that a few here and there are saying how they've mastered this and that. x) to be honest, if you're that type of person... You sir ( or ma'am), are far from mastering it.
Just ride and feel what your true road is. Don't aim for a road you find interesting lolz. Heck, even I might not be the Wing Road from the quiz. I'll just have to keep riding until I find that road out there for me.
And be careful, saying that you've mastered something means that you're able to do that skill of yours ANYWHERE at ANYTIME, at ANYDAY, and at ANY moment. it takes time to do such a thing as to mastering your road, which includes possibly years.

Road goals don't mean that you're trying to make your riding style into something it's not, it means that you're pushing yourself to greater heights and speeds, and learning different techniques, whatever they may be. Perfection is not an attainable thing, simply because there's always something more to do! That means strive to improve and advance, not "perfect" your road.

Ive mastered sliding and carving techniques, so my road goals are done. Mabey not everyone gets this but your style is your road and the goals are more of a guide. for example if you naturally can jump 10ft then the standard for every over road rider would help you see what road you are and then from there you use the goals or as they originally were standards as your foundation and you expand your riding from these standards and from other riders. its not just that you have to accomplish these standards to qualify for a road its actually that they are the foundation of the road. make sense?

I'm going to lock this and just go ahead and open up the Road System boards. We can all continue to work on developing the criteria from there. And since there's a board for each road, it'll be a lot more organized. I still need to add some more info, so expect some to be added soon. So, without further ado.... **LOCKED**
