I've done most of these sports and agree with your assessment as well. Saw you comment on Draganboard's channel so figured I'd add how streetboards fit in here. Streetboards are similar to inline skates in terms of difficulty and danger. The bails tend to be slightly worse. Also the initial learning curve turns a lot of people away. You basically can't move until you learn to pump - which for reference is similar to learning the basic slalom cone weave for inline skates, but you're moving sideways instead. It is not at all like a ripstik. Once you get pumping down it's super fun though. I find the tricks a bit more fun than inline skating and it has a very snowboard / drifty feeling to it. Powerslides are also a lot easier to do than on a normal skateboard. Would love to see you try a streetboard on your channel!

Love the response thanks man!

Scooter seems the easiest when it comes to getting into jumping and grinding , second is rollerblading, but it takes about 1-2 years of practice to make your tricks, rolling and control look smooth and confident, until then we are all just goofy stick figures (everyone starts there without exception). Boarding as you said a hard to enter sport, ollie and first grinds take a lot of time to achieve. but technical trick variety wise boarding is probably the most abundant .

Ive done longboarding, skateboarding, blading, and bmx. Blading is by far the hardest to learn initially, skateboarsing is the hardest to learn tricks on, longboarding is the most relaxing, and bmx is the most versatile.

For 30 years skateboarders have been calling us FAGS because we inline, yet, in reality, you said it, inline skating is far more dangerous then BMX, Skateboard & Scooter, because you can't jump off or kick away your skates. When you fall, you are going down, no exceptions. That is why I respect Aggressive Inline skaters more. Through all the hate that we get from the rest of the Skater groups, we still do it regardless of the danger and the historical smear campaigns. I must say though, Skateboarding is fucking hard to get started. You are correct. Scooter is the safest and easiest to learn tricks. Aggressive Inline is somewhere in the middle. But yea, it is super dangerous.

I’ll also add that’s theres some really awesome park tricks on a scooter that are just impossible for me to do but the street trick come a bit more naturally to me. In addition progressing in any of the sports are all very difficult.

In my opinion i say inline skates are hard cause ive trlyed it before and i could not balance for Crap.😂
