  ROLLERBLADING
The rollerblades are in line with the bottom of your feet and even if you are a beginner or one who has been skating for a long time, just rolling over a small rock could make you trip and fall down.
The good side of rollerblading is that it provides the same level of aerobic activity as running, thus it promotes a good cardiovascular training effect.
Rollerblading is not as a physical sport as football or ice hockey, but one should use their common sense and wear the safety gear.
