After skating the Wizard Advanced for a while the PR 80 feel light and somewhat more casual. Looking forward to doing more aggressive style tricks with them.

I think some music mostly motivates me because I associate it with something else, specifically skate edits.

The best example is probably the music from my most favourite edit of all time:

Does anyone have any idea about what to do alone in The Hague?

I’ll spend the rest of the week there; while my partner will be attending a conference, I’ll have to somehow entertain myself.

Are there communities or groups I could join?

I’m into inline skating, kendama, learning Mandarin, software development, interaction design, …

Thank you for any suggestion! 🙂

When #wizardSkating, I currently mostly practice the basics: overall balance and stability, forward and fakie gazelle, toe and heel press.

The next more exciting move that I’d like to learn is the parallel slide: https://youtu.be/AOh_NYuLvzc

Unfortunately, Karmeliterplatz (where I currently practice) is not well suited for this. I’d need a smooth, plane surface without gravel …

As my next Chinese exam approaches, I have been wondering how I would talk about #WizardSkating in Mandarin. Unfortunately, I am not yet capable of researching this on the chinese web.

So I came up with these:
巫滑 [wūhuá] or 巫溜 [wūliū].

巫 → witch, wizard, shaman
滑 → slide, slip
溜 → slide, glide, skate

滑 is part of 轮滑 [lúnhuá] (#rollerskating). 溜冰 [liūbīng] is part of words like ‘skater’, ‘skates’ and ‘skate rink’; but 冰 means ice, so I think these terms could actually relate to ice skating. 🤔

The first time on wizard frames I had to get used to the lack of a certain kind of stability (compared to the aggressive frames).

Today, during my second session, I understood that this lack of stability is actually manoeuvrability in disguise; now my motions feel more and more fluid, transitions are so satisfyingly smooth! 🤤

I am hooked, this is so much fun. 🧙‍♂️

Finally fully equipped. But my throat still feels a little rough, breaking them in will have to wait. 🥲

After investing some Christmas money I am now actually holding a pair of PR80 in my hands. ✨

Everything is prepared to mount them: some bouncy wheels; a bag of bearings; even a bearing press … but no bearing spacers, which I forgot to order. 🫥

So I went back online, but could not find any information on which spacers fit my wheels best. Also, opinions on spacers vary widely. To avoid further frustration I settled on the only adjustable spacer available. Now I wait again. 🫠

Last night I literally dreamt about skating Wizard PR80 frames. But they are just soo damn expensive.
I was thinking about getting a pair of Roka 80 or NN Dragon 80 instead; but all of them are currently hard o get, and I don‘t know how they actually compare.
