I'm thinking of taking up roller skating. Roller blades or ice skates would be harder for me to use, because they only have one blade. Roller skates would be easier, because they have two blades. Where can I find a cheap pair?

skates.com has a lot of styles. I saw what I wanted there and then found them cheaper (and bought from) ebay.

I LOVE roller derby. The problem for me is that I have a really hard time getting both my feet to work independently, and yet together. I actually think it's the reason I never took to sports as a kid. Anyway, I had to ditch derby, but man, is it fun!

Good luck with getting skates!

That's interesting since most people actually feel that Roller Skates are harder then blades. I feel the same way. Skates are harder to control and all that while with blades they're easier to control and skate in.
But you could just check your local Target or Walmart.
