Introduction

Hi, Ive joined this group to promote and encourage inline skating in South Florida. I've been skating since 1987. Due to my former work and travel schedule have had the opportunity to skate in several countries around the world

Tell us about yourself: where you live, how long you've been skating, where you'd like to skate and when. Let us know if you're a beginner and can skate a mile, or are intermediate, or, advanced and participate in races and/or can skate 100K. Thanks!

I live in Boca Raton, but host one or two inline skate sessions a week from West Palm Beach to Miami. Our 1st Friday monthly skate is the most fun because we are escorted through the streets of Miami Beach by several units of the Miami Beach police.

What Gene Cook is saying about this Meetup Group

If you don't want to skate alone or you want to improve your skating skills, join the Beach Bladers. We have several skates every month, including some teaching sessions. We are also a very social club with frequent parties and picnics, so please feel free to join us for a skate or any of our other events.

  • Thanks for the pointers during last nights skate. It sure was a good workout! I think I would do much better with some new wheels! See you next time.

  • Hey Gene,
    If you think it is something the group would enjoy hearing then go ahead and set it up. We are going to meet and start in the beach parking at the Beach Hammock trail. Then walk to the concession area and by the visitors center, which I think is closed on the weekdays. They could meet us at the start or near the visitors center I guess... or we could walk back up towards the gate.
    Look forward to meeting you tomorrow.
    Scott
