If it’s a gentle downhill slope and you can see when it flattens out, then perhaps you feel some excitement as you know you’ll get some free roll and be able to chill for a few moments and rest your legs as you roll through the acceleration.

These are going to be the…

A new version of the Pacer Charger skates just arrived.  These were designed to look more like the popular quad speed skates and less like a toy skate.  The design looks a little like a smaller version of the GTX500 skates, which have been very popular for many years now.  They come in black or white, sizes 10J-4.  To avoid confusion with the previous versions of the Chargers, these are model #975.  They are in stock now and ready to ship.     Source link
