* Not much happens. We're lucky to get 5 skaters on Friday nights.
* Up-tightness: Don't want to skate in a group because of individualism. ''"want to do my own thing cuz everyone else is too fast or too slow"''
* Lack of skill: Only skate randomly a hand full of times during 2 to 3 months a year (spring/summer). Every year is to start all over
* Equipment: only a minority of proficient skaters with good equipment ''"who are too good to skate with everyone else that is not like them"''.
* Skill: Too much effort. Most skaters prefer short distances and pretty landscapes
* Injury: bought a pair of skates, fell in the living room trying them and decided sell them on kijiji for a bargin. (skating is not for me)
* Beginners: Make the vast majority of skaters. No one wants to skate with them and when experienced skaters do skate with them, the beginner feels intimidated and vanishes. (oh wow!! you don't even use a heel brake)
* Groups: There is the [[Toronto bladers]] and the Toronto blading group for [[aggressive skating]] and their respective sub crews and gangs
* Then there is the hockey skaters. Rinks and hockey only
* Ice skating and that is all about it. Skate circles forever. Not much effort needed. Always in the same spot and lots of chit chat
* Slalom skaters: Finding one is worse than a needle in haystack''. When they practice, no talk! focus only! shhh! no rockered frame? goodbye! (all of them are immigrants)''
* Females "We need safe spaces".. rollerblading is very very dangerous we must be careful
* Too much politics.
