Yesterday I started practicing at work at lunch. I didn’t think it would get too bad with sweat and tiredness because I wouldn’t really push myself too hard and I only have a 45 minute break. So I set up some cones 80cm apart and did backwards cross and forwards cross. For some reason my shins started hurting pretty badly. I have been thinking about rockering my wheels quite a bit since Jeremy did it and said it was lots easier to do. What I think I want to do is buy new skates and rocker those wheels. Then I can use my existing hockey skates with no rocker to practice in. That will work out my muscles for training. Then when I’ll practice a little bit with the new rockered skates to get used to the rockering. This way I’ll be able to work out my muscles and practice rocker skates all in one session. I may even rotate sessions rockered/non-rockered, every other day. We’ll see. First task is to get new skates and wheels. Off I go!

good luck finding new skates in a store. I recommend doing research online and finding a store that will order them, but let you try them on before you commit to buying.
