well.. i didn't go "soft". I had two torn ligaments in my knees and my knee pains are so bad that i can completely forget to do it again, even if i wanted to. And i'm only in my mid 30's. Most people stop because they've fucked up their bodies to the point where your doctor tells you to quit or get ready to be in a wheelchair 10 years later.

Damn. Aggressive inline is seriously athletic

Aggressive Inline's downfall is so unfortunate. I was a young kid during its height of popularity. My big brother skated for senate. I used to love watching him perform tricks; it was like he was a god or something. Not trying to rag on skateboarding or bmx, but I'd rather be watching this any day. BRING INLINE BACK TO THE X GAMES!

addy no doubt i was sitting here think when I was at the skatepark today...what really happened. Great idea fun to do but it just fell off. And i have my theories after running into some people in the industry, they just aren't likable characters. Most I honestly feel were spoiled kids who once they grew up realize they couldn't be spoiled anymore and found real jobs. Unfortunately for other sports I don't feel bikers and skateboarders were products of spoiled kids. They just wanted to build on something they felt special. That is just my take. I still love to rollerblade but even back in 2007 I could see it was dying away and in 2017 its dead.

Andy another thing the sport went dead when the style changed over to skinny jeans. It wasn't us and never was. It never will be. Its just the way it is. People wanted to change over with society but we were always different. Arlo said he wanted to be different and it seems like people wanted to fit in. Shame though I never switched my style I just watched people fade away.

Addy C: I personally think it was just the fact that inline skating could only progress so far...unlike BMX and Skateboarding you have no bike or board to flip only urself ...so basically you can only ever really do spins and flips and simple grinds

CJ has so much energy and power a very impressive skater!

There’s just something about the way blading flows 🤙🤙🤙

This stuff is crazy awesome. I'm trying to start learning itf and I don't understand the comments about this sport not belonging in xgames. Have you seen the skateboard street finals? They're relatively slow. Entertaining, but slow. This sport looks very fast paced and I'm sure the modern xgames crowd would dig it, but the community is drastically smaller.

Aggressive skating competitions seem to have very high expectations on their skaters like you must hit every trick but skateboarding tournaments bail almost all the time… this sport is severely underrated right now in terms of media attention I think it should be an Olympic sport.

This reminds me of that tv show, "Scarred" on MTV. When skating was popular it was a great time to be alive!

Goto always jumps very late when grinding, the rail is already over when he gets in, this happened every single time for him.

Hopefully skating will make a real comeback in 2019 baby

Bad news buddy.

I was just going to mention....when I was fifteen, I came into aggressive inline fairly late....I was in Brighton and the best I could do was a basic acid grind on a knee-high concrete waxed ledge. I did a 360 rotation over a tumble dryer....but I gave up as I had too may accidents and bruises, scrapes really, all over arms.... People like Kate Curry, Fabiola Da Silva, Chris Haffey, Alex Broskow and Arlo Eisenberg...all CAN skate....some people are just plain terrible and you would never expect them to get sponsored....Even me...I had to say to myself: 'One day, dream of getting the big bucks off skating...' It requires perseverance and stamina to get lots of medals and recognition from the crowd, to score the highest marks....nothing comes easy, these days....

Theres a depressing vibe about this competition, which is sad because aggressive inline is such a great sport.

@Louis Williams I used to skate remz mostly, but a good beginning skate is roces, the have wide enough side plates for grinding not too heavy and they come stock with great bearings after that move in to something like salamon at original,pro,or Brandon Campbell signatures they're all dope skates too and razor,usd but they're expensive to es are cheap and well built skates I learnt to back flip on roces they're dope

just realized this was the exact game I went to, time really flies

Hey I am just a kid, so I don't really know much about hard tricks, but why don't they do front and backflips? They have the hight and I have seen a guy do some in my local skatepark. I think I saw no front or backflip, only one flatspin, but that is not the same...

Give us 2 or 3 years and we are also at WEG. Or what do you think

skaters without helmets are fearless

Ive been blading a long time and I have to admit im sad where the spot has ended up. Everyone I know who blades dresses like a hermaphrodite indie wreckage and the current "cool" thing is to barely slide a really difficult trick. What happened to normal people blading with me and sliding grinds the entire coping or ledge? Truly makes me sad.

So limited in possibilities

you can do all of these tricks (apart from the grinds) without overpriced aggressive skates. fuck I have a pair of skates designed for roller discos that I use to skate ramps and bowls.

It'd rather see creativity, style, courage and power rewarded instead of endurance in a pre-determined pressure setting.
