Thank all of you so much. I skate 8-10 hours a week, actually on the wood that long. I am sure there a better skaters than me at my age (74). I just don't know of any in my area. I skate with T-Stacks Frank. There are many YouTube videos of him and Riedell sponsors him. He is one of the best roller skaters in America. Just Google him. He's that famous. I certainly can identify therefore with skating with a "Chad Hedrick". They are simply superior. I personally have never see an athlete like Stacks. He skates around people like they are stationary poles. But he's always so gracious to me.
I recently bought a professional wheel cleaner ($3099.00). I'll post a pic when it arrives. It's an amazing machine. Quite compact and so easy to operate. Almost every skating rink uses one.
Best
Charles
