The sentence : She is roller skate skinny.What does the author mean?Please,explain to me.I don't find synonyms.....
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.

How to roller skate?
DDUE I AM DA BEST AT IT JUST PRACTICE AND HAVE A GO DONT BE SCARED
Reply:First, check with your local skating rink to see if they offer lessons. As a skating coach, the two things I recommend most are: 1) KEEP YOUR HEAD UP - never look at your feet or the ground, and 2) KEEP YOUR KNEES SLIGHTLY BENT - your knees will act as "shock absorbers. The other thing is, if you have to use a wall or something to hold yourself up, ONLY USE ONE ARM. Whatever you do, don't turn your body toward the wall (or railing or whatever).
There are so many tips I could give, but I don't know if you're skating indoors, outside, on inlines or quads. It just all depends.
Practice, practice, practice, and never be afraid to fall. We all do!
Reply:Practice, practice, practice. Only that will help. But if you want to know how to get started, first put on your gear (roller skates, helmet, knee pads, elbo pads, etc.) Then find something that will support you while you stand. Then, just start moving your feet. You might fall a few times, but hey, that's part of the fun! ;-)
Reply:You must practice as much as you can.The more you practice the better your balance becomes.It is all about balance,Your center of gravity.
Reply:I teach roller skating at a local rink !! The main thing to know when you learn to skate is keep your feet in a "V" like a duck and KEEP YOUR KNEES BENT !! then take little steps don't worry about your speed just keep your balance put your hands out in front of you if you need them to help you balance. If you feel like your going to fall dip (bend down and put your arms out) if your going down cross your arms like your giving yourself a hug so when you fall you don't put your arms down so someone rolls over your fingers or you break an arm !! If you fall to get back up roll on to both knees then put one knee up push up on that knee to stand up !! but those are your simple basics !!

Why is roller skating dying?
Roller skating is such a fun, safe activity, yet it is dying a slow, painful death.
Why is roller skating dying?
I agree! I went to my folks house in NM and the local skating ring is still open. Me and my brother (35 %26amp; 31 yrs old) took all the kids and had a blast but I swear neither of us had been in 10 yrs or more!
Reply:Roller Blades have taken over for skates, and I don't know exactly how safe it is.
Reply:It's a gay sport. It's completely pointless. It's not fun, it's too safe, and most people who need to excersize can't find skates that fit them and most people that are in great shape would chose not to roller skate because it is a waste of their time.
Reply:I'm slowly eating them. Wheels and all...
Reply:its crap
Reply:Because we live in a fat and lazy society.

Boyfriend and roller skating?
I was wondering (since I want to do something more fun than seeing a movie with him or going to dinner) if maybe going roller skating would be fun? We are 18 and 19 years old and I haven't done anything like that in 8 or 10 years, neither has he. Would it be fun as a date? Guys? Or any other date ideas?
Boyfriend and roller skating?
sounds fun but do something else afterwards also.
Reply:yeah why not it would be fune just as long as its @ night (more romantic)
Reply:I'd do it! But then I'm a dork about roller skating. I've always loved it!

1970's roller skating fad?
Was there a certian style of clothing that everyone wore back in the 1970's while they roller skated? I'm thinking short shorts and tube socks but I want a picker to make sure I'm correct.
