I'm going skating tonight and haven't did that in about 5 years. I don't even own any skates now. Am I gonna get killed?

You'll do fine! You might be sore tomorrow but tonight you'll have a blast!

Used to go rolling skating as a teen every other weekend from age 13 till about age 17 and completley mastered it! Skip forward 25 years later, I must admit i could not even stand up on them at all without falling down! I was so confused as to why..Can ride a bike after not riding for a long period of time but not the rollerskates..Ended up taking them off after trying for about 20 minutes

I m going to say yes .... but it might be dependent on how long. Last time I skated was probably 25 to 30 years ago. I went recently and felt like a complete beginner. I had trouble believing that I was ever pretty good at skating. It was bizarre. The only good thing is that I went in cautious, because of an experience a few years back on a skate board. I jumped on one with memories of the past, and I couldn t believe how unsteady I was, and how different I felt. Was my experience typical? I don t know, but I would say that with the large time gap, I definitely forgot.

You'll be a bit rusty.
I was off my blades for a year and went to the rink again for the first time last Saturday. But after about 30 minutes, I was pretty much back to the same skill level that I used to be.

Yes! I used to be a pro at rollerskating, now I just suck because I haven't done it in so long.

You may not be too graceful but it's just like the old cliche about riding a bike. You'll pick it up again quickly and you'll do great. Just don't fall on your tailbone like my gf did a few years ago. :-)

You'll be wobbly at first but you'll get used to it
