Do people still go inline skating? I suppose that they do, but I can’t say that I’ve actually seen anyone doing such a thing since the 90’s. Everyone around here seems to be far more interested in skateboarding. If you’re into that kind of thing, here’s a way to add a little something to your skate.
The Speed-litez A ground effects lighting system for your skates apparently replaces one of the wheels with a bright light. This light isn’t just meant to be cool, but it’s also meant for safety while skating at night.
I don’t know why, but I’m actually quite surprised that someone has created these. Not because it’s a far-fetched idea, but because I seriously haven’t seen anyone with inline skate in years.

Boy have you been out of it a long time. Those skates look like they were made in the early 90’s.
You can get the lights without removing a wheel, check out http://www.volcanicwheel.com/.
You could probably use their quad wheels on a skateboard.
Check out the finish times for the Northshore Inline Marathon (www.northshoreinline.com), it is the largest inline skate event in the US with about 4000 people.
