What is "roller skate skinny"?
It is an analogy like "pencil slim".
"Skinny" usually describes someone who is thin. The assumption is that someone who roller skates is very active and slim as it requires a considerable amount of energy and uses a lot of calories. You do not see many obese roller skaters as the weight would make it difficult for them to keep their balance and they would tire easily.
The usual expression is "skinny as a rake" and the author wanted to use a different figure of speech.
Reply:Rollerskate Skinny was an Irish band that enjoyed its greatest success during the 1990s.
