Beware, when you slip into shameless denials, there'll be no
redemption for your soul. All for the vanity that you think you know

As a cameraman, I suppose to keep the lead skier in the picture, and
when I formation ski with someone as a "wingman," I usually duplicate
the lead skier's every move, so, when he spun I followed suit and not
realizing I was holding the camera.

"Mind thinks, body moves," total body automation.


I'm not buying it. Your following the lead skier's every move when
you are the cameraman doesn't speak very well for the "mind thinks"
part. Matter of fact, it speaks to a profound lack of Mindfulness.

There's endless ski season if you know how,

Why do you call it "rollerblade skiing?" Most of us just call it
"rollerblading" or "in-line skating". The only thing you're doing
that most people don't is waving your arms around a little while
you're at it; how does that make it "skiing"?


It is called "rollerblade skiing" because it is a technique/skill
primary used for going downhill and is "skiing" oriented sliding


But it's not. There's no more "sliding" going on there than any
typical skater will demonstrate while carving turns to control their
speed. Probably less, in fact, because you're going quite slow.

rather than "rollerblade" is "skating" oriented, and the principle and
techniques of the body movements are as same as skiing.


Yes, body movements for coasting downhill on in-line skates do have a
great deal in common with skiing. But again, most of the masses of
skaters who employ the same techniques (arm-waving excepted, of
course) just call it "skating".

Not really, most in-line skaters cannot even parallel turn on wheels,
let alone carving. And you cannot really use carving to control speed
on the bike paths/streets, there's no room for it.

Probably less, in fact, because you're going quite slow.


It takes skills to go down a slope slowly on wheels.

Of course, they only know how to "skate"; that is, due to the design
of skates, most of masses "walk" their skates. And "rollerblade
skiing" "slides" with both skates on the ground. Different technique
and different way to skate, a new name is needed to make a
distinction.

You don't skate, do you?

Yup, "Total Body Automation," while in the state of "mind of no mind,"
it may look like "a profound lack of Mindfulness" to the dualism
dwellers.

See...with your rollerblading you offer a much more descriptive and
cohesive story to back up your claim of skill on skates.

I suggest you are a better skater than you are skier.
