    Hi,
    Is it possible to take part using a skate board or is it only for inline skates?
    Cheers,
    Ana

    Hi, The Sunday Skate is great fun for all young and old alike but what happened on Sunday, 18th September? Quite a number of people turned up including some from Birmingham! I personally had already left home by the time the skate was called off as I live in Sussex. I even noticed a number of marshals’ had shown up as the skate wasn’t called off until after 12 noon so a lot of disappointed skaters! As for rain there were a few spots but nothing to right home about! So please if you are going to call the skate off can it be done a little earlier?
    However overall great organization and great fun!
    Best Wishes,
    Mike.

      As I’m sure you can imagine, we put a lot of effort into organising each route, and we don’t call them off lightly. Some days the weather call is more difficult than others – hey if it was that easy to get it right every time, everyone would simply check the Met office website a few days before and turn up or not based on that. As it happened, there was heavy rain in London around 5 – 5:30, so we were an hour or too out on the weather call.

      Anyhow, we called it off as soon as we could, given the circumstances. You might like to subscribe to our twitter feed, and configure your twitter settings so you get an SMS as soon as we make the weather call. Its a great service and we can’t recommend it enough. All the best, LFNS.

    Hi,
    I’ve been to three Sunday Strolls now and love them more every time – thanks so much for organising them :) They’re an amazing mix of people, great energy, music, London and skating, of course.

    I am also already looking forward to the Halloween and Santa Skate. Since I plan to travel for Xmas, I wanted to check if you perhaps already have the date for the latter so that I could book my travel and make sure I can make the skate.

    Many thanks in advance,
    Ania

    On Friday qhe 16th I´m visiting London with my friend and a friend of us.
    They want to join in the night ride on friday.
    But i´m not prepared to join you.
    Is there any possibility to join you riding a bike?
    This way I could follow you, or the only way is rollerskating?
    The ride on Sunday is it for beginners or I need a good level ?
    I watched your last video and you´re too fast for me .
    Regards

    Hello,

    I will be visiting London soon and am interested in attending the Sunday Stroll on May 1st. Would you be able to suggest any place to hire skates? I prefer the quad style ones. Thank you!

      You can hire skates at Slick Willies on Gloucester Road or Club Blue Room at Marble Arch. I’m not personaly aware whether you can hire quads but you may find inlines easier on the rough road surfaces of London

        Thank you for the information. The Blue Room does offer quads which I’m more familiar with but I’m also more familiar with skating in rinks – haven’t done roads since I was a child. Will check it all out tomorrow to see if I’m up for it. Thanks again for replying!

    Hi, I have a fews questions regarding the lessons provided on the 23rd of April. Firstly, will we be provided one-to-one tuition or will it be in a group? Secondly, do you have skates for hire as I currently do not own a pair and would like to give it a try. Finally, would we need to book places for this event?

    Many thanks, Rithu.

      Hi Rithu
      I’m not one of the instructors but I think I can answer your questions:
      a) It will be group tuition
      b) You can hire skates from either Slick Willies on Gloucester Road or Club Blue Room at Marble Arch
      c) No need to book, just turn up and look for the people in pink, by the Boathouse

    Dear fellow skaters,
    do you know where a **good** pair of inline skates can be bought in london? Possibly italian skates, e.g. rollerblade, roxa, etc..
    I’ve been to Decathlon, but all they have a real beginners skates of some unknown brands…

    Hello,

    My name is Nathalie and i come from Belgium. I have a little question about the annual EasterSkate Eggstravaganza. Do you already know when it takes place (date+hour+place)? And do you know where i can find information about this event on your website (or when there will be information available for 2011)?

    Thank you very much,

    Kind regards,
    Nathalie

    Hello! My name is Laura and I´m from Argentina, I´m part of rollerskate group ¨Patin en Linea¨. I have a trip planned to London from Wednesday 6th April to Friday 8th April. The thing is that I want be there for LFNS or Sunday Stroll as I´m leaving on Friday afternoon, but I don´t want to miss the oppotunity to meet the group, as I´m a fan of roller skating! So I would like to know if there is any special event planned for these dates or maybe if the group get together in any park to do slalom for example. Thank you very much for your time.
    Kind regards,

    Hi,

    Is there any possibility to hire rollerblades and protective gear for the LFNS, that can be picked up just before the event and dropped off after the event (on same night)?

    I have done LFNS before, but now coming from a different city, so I don’t want to carry skates.

    Thanks,
    Simon.

      Look forward to seeing you on the skate

    I am interested in speaking with skating enthusiasts for a documentary series, linked to an ad campaign. We would film people making journeys.

    Is there anyone interested in this. Please email me at brian.lavery@wk.com if so.

    Hi guys,

    I’m kind of a newbie skater… took lessons over the summer term and did my first Sunday stroll on the 6th Sept… 15 year old kid on blue inlines??? It was brilliant! Anyway, I’m doing some gcse coursework for art and I was wondering if it would be okay to take photo’s and video some of the stroll??

    Thanks, Rajaei

      Sorry the photo is too big for us to email very easily, but you could download it – or any photos from the slideshows on our website – from Flickr.
      Just click on the photo and then the “info” in the top right corner, then click on the photo name, and finally click on the button marked “All sizes”.

      The photos are copyright of the individual photographer but provided it’s for personal use most probably won’t mind.

      Some people come on quads (what most people mean when they say ‘Roller Skates’). Some people turn up on bikes, skateboarders, inline Nordic skiers etc – all we say is, please be mindful of the people around you. For safety reasons we might ask you to follow behind the rear marshal instead of mixing it with the body of the skate

    Hi skaters,

    We are artists/filmakers and would like to film you all skating around the city one Friday night. We are thinking of mounting a small video camera on a bike, we will be very careful and ride behind you all, near the rear marshalls.

    Is this OK? Any questions/comments? Please let us know!

    Thanks :)

    Suki and Andy

      Hi Sukichan,

      Good to meet you yesterday.

      We have put some wheels in motion and contacted the LondonSkate people to tell them what your wanting to do.

      Here is a vid that a marshal took with his helmet camera, not great but may give you some ideas.

    Hi Skaters,

    This is ameena – I come out on the sunday stroll with my wheelchair/powertrike when it’s warm enough for me. Hopefully make it out again soon.

    The other thing I do on Sundays is play samba and my group is looking for some roller skaters to come out with us at Notting Hill Carnival. Can you let me know how I can get in touch to send more information?
