Book Description

At last, a book that actually teaches you how to inline skate. Whether you're a rank beginner or a skating pro, William Nealy's Inline! will educate and entertain you like no other how-to-manual you've ever read. Nealy uses hard earned crash-and-burn skating experience, 4th dimensional drawings, and his twisted sense of humor to give you the most comprehensive, easy to understand, and detailed book on skating ever written. Inline! will teach you everything you need to know to become a seasoned blader. Learn how to skate, from taking your first baby steps on blades to more advanced techniques such as getting air, descending stairs, expert turning techniques and more. Inline! also includes chapters on how skates work, skate maintenance, safety, and the all important selection of body armor. Finally, Inline! will teach you the many ways to stop, or safely fall, while you're climbing the learning curve. All of this in Nealy's hilarious, easy to understand cartoon style that makes learning fun.

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent
An excellent publication. Diagrams are well thought out, giving all the steps required to complete a move along a timeline. The writing style and use of humour in the text and illustrations makes reading and learning fun, and the author really captures the inner thoughts of a beginning skater as he prepares to execute a move, making the reader feel comfortable with trying them. I keep the book with me and review a page or two now before I skate to hone my skills. Thanks for an excellent publication!

4-0 out of 5 stars William Nealy's cartoon style makes In-Line skating fun.
This hilarious, way of teaching rollerblading makes skating fun.The cartoons are very explicit and cover every conceivable way of skating, safety, skate maintenance and techniques.Even though the language may be a little vulgar it is by all means a comprehensive and detailed way on learning and improving your In-line skating.

4-0 out of 5 stars A good investmentfora beginner
This book can't be read and understood at one sitting. If you do try to read at one sitting as beginner or low intermediate skater you will certainly miss many subtle points.

I have read this book about 4 times, nearly cover-to-cover as I needed to be reminded of different points or I didn't fully read the points indicated. Of course if I were a good skater I wouldn't be doing this. There are moves I still don't understand but that's ok as I am a long way from that level at the moment
The lack of photos instead of diagrams was disappointing, but now I think diagrams are better as, there are so many and the labeling is extensive.
This book wont makes you a great skater. You need an instructor for that, but as a guide it is excellent.
I would have preferred a more-structured layout in terms of points to remember and perhaps a greater depth of explanation of subtle points.Having said that I doubt you will go wrong buying this bookgiven the audience it targets.

5-0 out of 5 stars A Graphic Novel and Inline Primer
Sorry earlier reviewers, but I totally and unequivocally disagree that the handwriting makes this book hard to read.In my opinion, the handwriting makes it more fun and more flexible to read when the author wants to stress something textually.The whole book reads like a graphic novel and Nealy does a decent job drawing and explaining the basics of edges and glides, which I think are often illustrated poorly in other books.He also thoroughly explains and illustrates more advanced stops, turning, spins, backwards skating, and cooler, potentially-aggressive moves.There's also a cute, informative skate maintenance section at the back.Honestly, people, most skate books only cover the basics or do some overview of the skating world in general.I think this one's a winner - it goes over a great selection of topics. Based on the opening humor in the cartoons on pages roman numeral five and eleven, it is apparent that the book is not meant for innocent young minds to ponder.But give the author a break - plenty of books go over the basics in an easy-for-kids format.This one is for teens/adults who want to really know a lot of information about technique and don't just want to roll.

2-0 out of 5 stars Contains Unnecessarily Vulgar Language
The book uses plenty of detailed sketches to provide all of the techniques you'll need to know, and then some.The content of the book is more than sufficient to enable someone to become a proficient inline skater, and is easily understandable.Unfortunately, the book is equally thorough in its use of profanity, making it unsuitable for my kids to see.A book about skating that is too profane for kids to see? Give me a break . . . ... Read more

Book Description
A lively inline skating how-to for baby booming women and a personal journey of empowerment in the Babe way, Babes on Blades addresses the specific needs of baby boomers. Recognizing that a 50-year-old body reacts differently to a fall or skill drill than a 25-year-old one, this book will inspire women of all ages to get off the couch and into the streets where they belong. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars excellent
has drawings for the utmost beginner but I still recommend a video to see it in action.

5-0 out of 5 stars If only I had read this book before falling!
I thoroughly enjoyed "Babes on Blades". The piece that is worth the price of the book is how to get up. It is not so simple when your feet are rolling every which way. Just read a few simple paragraphs, look at the photos and you will be back on your blades in no time. I thought the pictures were very good at explaining things and I appreciated all of the safety hints. For someone over 5, this is a must-read book. If you are younger, just have someone read it to you.

5-0 out of 5 stars Babes on Blades: Drop Physical, Mental and Spiritual Flab...
The content of this spirited piece is filled with necessary wordy explanations of inline skating moves. The book "shows" as much as it "tells" with full page photographs illustrating the basics throughout. It goes beyond skating, actually, as it encourages all women to get off the couch and "into the streets where they belong." The underlying them is people moving from depression, oppression and personal challenges into the light of acceptance as they expand their personal paradyms. Davis' fun-loving wit and enthusiasm make this book a fast and interesting read.

1-0 out of 5 stars Pass on This One
Take heed.If you think you're getting a book that shows you how to execute skating moves, you aren't.What you are getting is a book that covers the obvious -- like how important it is to wear a helmet and pads.The only thing of value in this book is the list of skating "zines" and parks at the end -- which you can discover simply by doing an online search.My recommendation: Pass on this one. It's simply not worth the money.

5-0 out of 5 stars this is the best book ever
