People who can't skate and buy rollerblades. I laugh heartily at them, especially when they fall. Normally they're not injured though, as these people usually have $500 of pads on.

So people are expected to magically know how to skate before they buy the skates without ever having practiced before? Greeeeat. I supposed people are supposed to have ripped muscles before they ever go to the gym and are expert drivers before they ever get behind the wheel too. [/b][/quote]
I was a really shinguard skater when I was a kid. I actually got good at rollerblading first and then was able to figure out ice skating.
From my experience, going from rollerblades to skates was a great way to learn.
