Embracing Winter as a Rollerblader

Short days and cold temps. Winter can be rough for anyone, but for a rollerblader, it can be extra challenging.
I'm currently traveling for a few work projects in the Salt Lake City, Utah area, and while it's a tad more wintery than California or Florida, we are gonna do what we gotta do.
I decided to embrace the winter spirit with a few additions to my wardrobe and a surprise meet-up with someone who knows a thing or two about winter. Anna Tedesco is a skier and pilot with oodles of experience embracing winter and having fun with it.
She skis for Icelantic Skis, which you can check out here www.icelanticskis.com
Check Anna out on Instagram here: / annatabasco
Special thanks to Luke for filming and putting up with my shenanigans.

    Here the roads are wet or salt covered in the winter, luckily there's a good indoor rink community that I've been having a lot of fun in.

    Love watching this on a Sunday morning while in bed. Every time I watch stuttering skater in action it motivates me to skate more like him. I’m no where near the skill level he has, but I can only dream about. Excellent song choices especially at 4:00pm mark I also got a snowsuit and only wore it once.
