So I see all these kids rolling around on Heelys- how old is too old to flow the aisles of the supermarket in some of these puppies ? At 30 will I be looked at with scorn ? Any other mature crew out there got them ?

the no.2 ping-pong player in W.A is 54 years old.

he has a small farm and eats mostly home grown food.

this bloke moves around the table with the agility of a 16 year/old.

he is a pure freak!

I have seen some mid 20's guy cuising down the mall on them... he was dressed like a 16yo tho'. Got some odd looks.

I think skateboards and the like are timeless - I am 43 and still ride occasionally (with my 12yo son). Got myself a nice 'longboard' cruiser and another with big wide 8" trucks and fat juicy wheels - great fun reo'ing and carving off the curbs etc.

Heely's tho?? Don't think so...

i want some!
can you get adult sizes? if so where and how much?
if your a bloke it could only make shopping faster and more efficient!
but it is little worrying that they are only six wheels away from roller blades,
whats the hardest thing about rollerblading? ..telling your parents your ghey!

I don't really think it matters what people think as long as you are having fun. I was interested to gget a gauge of public sentiment though. Interesting that the 3 people who have responded about them being gay are from Vic. I might post some pics up next week of me being ghey on wheels I am too old to ride.
