Episode 200! And 6 years of Mad Beef Rollerblading Podcast! Wow.This episode is just a casual chat about driveway p-rail summer sessions with my teenage daughter, lunchtime skatepark sessions with some random middle-aged skate geezer and the joy of good socks.
It's rare to find mentions of action sports and skating sports in literature... much rarer to have extended sequences. I started my first read of Anna Karenina this year and was stoked to come across this scene, early in the book.
I just bought some chocolate brown extra loose Dickies pants. 90s fashion is back in, and that means baggy trousers are back! ——— Some published excerpts from my yet-to-be-published rollerblading novel can be read online at:

In this episode I share an excerpt from a recently completed novel about rollerblading, for which I am currently seeking literary representation or a publisher.
This excerpt describes the experience of big wheel blading.
In this episode I chat a bit about how spending a skate session working toward a skating run, rather than just mucking around or learning new tricks, is a different kind of session.
Another brief excerpt from the novel I'm currently working on—in fact I have now finished the first full draft!
Also keep an eye out for my short story (also taken from the novel) that'll appear in the Australian literary journal 'Overland' probably in December 2021!

Sorry for the sound quality: recording on a earbud microphone while walking to a conference centre, so the wind is pretty annoying.
How can you, or anyone else for that matter, philosophically justify spending your time, wasting your money and risking your safety on inline skating?

Volcano, taco, cradle... DWARF DOOR. Nerang Skatepark in Queensland is the one whose Skateboarding.com.au page proudly proclaims "Dwarf door! Yeah the only park in the country with a dwarf door which makes it a must stop. The door is in an open bowl section that also has an extension and small taco" (although Charlton skatepark in VIC also has a tiny one: a pixie door I guess).

Here's the snowboarding article I mention in the podcast: https://www.redbull.com/au-en/10-tips-for-riding-the-halfpipe-from-queralt-castellet
I love the look of this trick. I want it to have a special place in my trick vocabulary.
If you enjoy it, go for your life. Just don't film it. And if you film it, just don't publish it... unless...
“It’s all friendly love over here… at the shopping mall there’s a hundred little kids, even grandma and grandpa on skates.”
It's not as convenient as skateboarding, but much faster and more effective; it's not as powerful as bike riding, but much more fun.
You don't want to become that dad who hassles your kids to like the sport that you like.
I've listened to every rollerblading podcast I could find and here are a bunch of ways that Mad Beef will be UNIQUE.
