A great thing to get about town in, in a shoe. It's pretty easy to use, although if you don't have very dexterous fingers you might find it abit hard to tie the security ropes which hold them on your feet. Once on, to use them you simply put one foot infront of the other in a repetative motion which should cause you to accelerate in a forward direction. They also have a reverse function which lets you move backwards, you just put one foot behind the other. There are turn functions too, you might want to hold your hands out left or right to indicate to the public which direction you are turning. The shoes are automatic so you don't have to change gears all the time.
Fitness? Seriously?

If you’re a girl and you’re 5’8 or taller, don’t wear heels. If you’re 5’9.5 or taller, shrink.

Apparently you have to go on a training course before you're allowed to use them!! xD

Tescos sell moon shoes though.

It's because the muppet masses went out with none of the required skills, strength, balance, fitness, etc and ended up in A&E with broken bones. Just like you can't buy chainsaws now without a license because untrained people kept on cutting of their own limbs and the heads of their wives.

That's not very nice! I'm 5'11 and still don't look like a giant, unless I wear aforementioned heels that is.
You got heelies or skates. Pick one.

There was a guy at uni with those bouncy things, I think you ust draw attention to yourself because you're much higher than everyone else.
And there was also a guy with heelies that was about 20. He just looked weird because he looked too old to have them, especially him being so tall.

I think skates are your best option.

I don't much care what you look like, if you stood next to me I would look silly.
Moved to F&B....

im so academic
you know those shoes that have whels in them? well i'm asking, are there any altenatives to them? - except rollerblades and rollerskates?

how much are for the average converse?

what shoes are just great for getting around and about in town?

any alternatives to scooters, not including bikes and such?

how much are for the average heelys?


Dude...wtf, just walk. :s-smilie:

And heelies should be banned indoors. Bloody dangerous things skating about in supermarkets, skates wouldn't be allowed I don't see why them things are.
