Skating Temperatures

[Gudda]

I'm from GA, but I'ved in MN the past 5 years and lately its been 90s if not 100 degrees outside.

So I'm somewhat use to the heat, but for here thats still too hot to skate for most people.

I will skate for a hour or two on a 90+ day.

Usually all day if its lower 80s.




Just curious, what temperatures will you, and will you not skate in?

And if you do skate in 90+ degree weather, how long?


Also would like to know location of people, considering some people live in the south and are use to skating in killer heat.

[HollyBoni]

it's 95 degrees here, and it's killing me... but i skate every day after 5pm.

Yeah usually anytime after 6pm here, its still hot and humid as hell out, but its not as bad to skate in unlike the morning or middle of the day of course.

It's also nice just having a night time skate sesh also.

[bhughes]

its 97 right now (4:25pm in Macon, GA) and i plan to go blade from 6ish till dark. fuck skating from noon to 5 in the 100+ degree heat tho, did that last week for the jville thrill and it sucked a bag of dicks.

[Dr. Zaius]

I usually only skate in the summer once the sun eases up on its assault during the day. Usually after 4-6 pm. It makes it hard to film a lot of the time but whatever.

[DnEhThEnD]

the heat doesn't bother as much as the sun, I will skate for a few hours at night when it's over 100 but during the day 30 minutes and I'm done for days, takes everything out of me

This. Aslong and there isn't any sun I will skate

[chris duke]

I can't skate in humid weather, sucks balls.

I prefer to skate when it is just cold enough to slap on a hoody or a flannel

[bobgross]

Just skated in 97 degree weather for a couple of hours, feels bad man.
And by bad, I mean sweaty. Everywhere.

[austin from texas]

i think everyday ive skated for the past couple of weeks its been at least 100, usually around 2pm also

derp

that's just SO HARDCORE!

[austin from texas]

you know it ;)

[r.s.]

If its not raining, we're blading. Not skating due to the temperature is pussy shit.

[Chris Calkins]

It's rough out here on Venice Beach, temps soar as high as 75!

[Shhwing4]

i like to hit up the park mid afternoon here because the parks are empty as hell and wax just melts onto the coping. i could only skate for an hour tho if its like 110 out

[teedoab]

This has been my first week ever skating in high temps+humidity, & I gotta say it's the most exhausting thing I've ever done. Been out every day here in Norfolk, & each session usually ends with me feeling nauseas & like I've been drained of all life. When I was youngerl in central CA we'd skate all day in 100+ weather with no problem, but that didn't hold a candle to this.

it also soaks into your pants like a towel in water

this. Not universally true, but definitely the case if it's not a weekend.

[Cameron M]

Here in Nashville we've been out everyday for the last 4 hours of the day, its been between 99 and 110.

[ift]

Cheeeese and rice it was hot today. Only could handle one spot.

[Red Rider]

If it's 80s or 90s I'll probably only go for a few hours. 60s is ideal. 50s can be better than 70s sometimes.

[Spy]

90 degrees is doable, 100 is fuckin nuts
shit gets crazy when its hot enough for your wax to melt, creating a thin layer of liquid speed on whatever your skating.


but i love me some 60/overcast

[DnEhThEnD]

last summer it was hot enough in my trunk to make my carbons pliable

[SoufCaK89]

its been bought as hot as the devils nuts here in S.C. but try to skate an hour or two in 100+ heat and its fukin insane!! mad swamp ass in like 30 mins or so

[stew]

its been bought as hot as the devils nuts here in S.C. Gonna be hot as the devil's asshole here tomorrow and saturday.

Is Hickory in the hills? Should be there sometime around Sunday night/Monday morning.

[Gudda]

Yeah man its been 90+ past week nonstop and humid as fuck.

But after tomorrow all next week its suppose to be low 80s which will be perfect.


I still skate in hot ass humid weather, but not long.

[formerly galenaskater]

its between 95-105 the past week and i've been out almost every night. clothes are soaked after 5 minutes. i'd rather skate in 110 degree heat than skate in anything below 40. i hate skating in the cold. i grew up farming so i can deal with the heat.

more so than charlotte

[D-Rock]

as long as i have an unlimited supply of water im good. ill drink roughly 4 liters during a standard 3 hour late afternoon summer evening sesh.

[Muppet4Eternity]

I'll skate any temperature, but between 12-24 Celsius is ideal.

[TRON.]

you skate? hahahaha fag.

[fast eddie]

I haven't skated once since it got above 90F a few weeks ago. I've been too busy and probably wouldn't have been able to anyways, but there's no real incentive to go out into 100F+ heat.

Right now, it's 104F and supposed to go up to 106F. Tuesday it's supposed to drop down to 84F, so I'll just hold out a few more days and, in the meantime, enjoy the constant 74F inside my house.

I skate at 1AM usually or around there during the summer months (when I lived in Florida this was pretty much the ONLY time I enjoyed skating). It's best for me because only other creepy people like me are out, no one else is out, and the only cops I see are jerking it and trying not to fall asleep somewhere, OR speeding by at 100 mph..

[jakeness13]

Its 105 here and the humidity level is insane. no skating.

[nlausch]

regardless of heat, its the humidity that kicks your ass here in the lovely north east. even in mild temps.


smoking and booze/hang overs don't help.

furthermore, i work with ice. so i'm all sorts of fucked up

[stew]

It was the hottest day of the year here so far so I went scuba diving instead of skating. Tomorrow is supposed to be several degrees cooler, and I have plans to skate in the evening.

Stop being a faggot.

[oldskizzle]

I hang on the side of buildings getting cooked all day. While I am used to the heat, working in it makes me less motivated to skate in it. However, with the limited time I have to skate nowdays I take what time I can get regardless of the temp.
