Cleaned up the thread...Reduced it to less than half of the amount of pages it once was. ' There should only be relevant and informational posts if you read through it now. Next thing I will be doing is putting together the information gathered so far and update post 1 with what ever info I can. :] Thanks for the suggestions, input and information thus far guys! I like the idea of the Roads being put together buy all the riders of the Parts War instead of just a few. After reading all the posts, around twice each post for a long time lulz, it was definitely a smart move to give everyone part to play in the development of the Road System. On another note, let's try harder to stay on topic and make only informative and productive posts. And if you noticed any posts of your's were gone, they were deleted to leave only the road suggestions and anything related to the development of roads. So, don't take it personal. ;p

I see the sonya road like figure skating so techniques like crossing your legs mid air and tucking your arms or using them to gain momentum in a spin, as well as pivoting on front or rear wheel of on skate. I feel its standard should be spinning over 540. This is dificult but practice can bring you crime 360 to 540 easily.

As Yami said roads aren't limiters (paraphrasing). Even if your part of one particular road don't limit yourself to the tricks of that road, every skater needs a good solid foundation with all the basics even maintenance of your skates

I'm not even sure how to jump and then land because it said the same about me and it would be cool but jumping 12 feet in the air and land on my skates would hurt if I messed up the landing

Here we go again... //_-
Trying to stay on topic: I've noticed that many riders, especially beginners, are choosing a road while they can barely stand with wheels on their feet and narrow their learning and style. I mean that beginners should be informed that Road system isn't something for newbies and that it looks more like the road chooses you and not opposite.
All roads can have a very similar trick list and again, like it was said before, the road is defined more by the way you use known tricks, rather than the tricks themselves.
Just a random thought I've got lately.

Just a random thought I've got lately. yes i agree i think the admins should update the rules for the roads and need to figure out a way to have newbies prove the road they claim to ride maybe like put up vids to prove it or something i still need to grind at least 7 different tricks on one rail

I don't know that we need to go that far, Dwarfrunner. If they want to limit themselves and learn nothing else, that's their loss. However, they do need to remember that it's a good idea to learn many different things, and many different ways to ride. But the whole thing is, they can yap about their road all they want, but if they don't know how to ride it won't get them anywhere.

XD lulz That's why the road system is down. What this thread is doing is giving EVERY RIDER an equal part in developing the new and improved road system. lulz It's up to all of us to develop this. This is something I realized. The thing is, we can't have people, as Shadow said, who can't even stand with wheels under them misunderstand this system. To understand this system, you have to let go of everything you currently know about the fictional roads. You have to rediscover the idea of a Road like its something you never heard of before by experiencing them yourselves by riding, rather than watching it in an anime. If you do this, I promise that you will notice how the real roads are exactly like the ones in the manga and show. :] Try to see them in the same light as martial art styles. ;] Train your mind accordingly too. *wink wink*

I think that road is defined more by the personality, rather than tricks. Sure, there are tricks which are specific to a certain road, but there aren't many of those kind.
Here are some Road definitions, as I see and feel them:
Like, I imagine Fang Road riders as normal people, until they get their blades on. Then they are turning into something different. They can be cynical or cheerful, evil or kind, playful or serious, but when it comes down to a battle they are all almost the same, craving for the win, no matter what would it take, parts, emblem, someone's life or their very own.
Or, Sonia Road riders, as I imagine them, will rather make their challengers distracted and lure them into their strategy by creating a illusion of an easy prey and evading easily with their agility. I guess their whole strategy is evasive, rather that defensive or offensive.
I define Flame Road riders, as passionate people who are not really interested in amount of tricks performed and their difficulty and more considered about performance. Getting from one point in space to another making each second count, that's their interest. Probably they can't do or not interested in difficult tricks and more concentrated on relatively simple ones, but perform them in a quickest possible way.
That it for now, feel free to discuss and criticize.
