Hey all, I've been lurking for a little while on this forum and have seen a plethora of posts from new adult beginners looking for all kinds of advice; a lot of them seem to be rather tailored, however, and a bit repetitive (people asking what skates to buy, if they can go far in the sport and if so how far, etc etc). Some of them are helpful, but I figured asking this one question might be a little more useful to new adult beginners (like me!) to have a gathering of general advice, from adults who started skating as adults to other adults who are starting to skate as adults. Of course, others are welcome to join in with advice, but adults starters to adult starters was my intent here!
So, adult skaters: what is one thing you wish you knew before you started?
(If you feel like contributing more than one thing, feel free! Can be on any topic--wish you'd bought skates straight off instead of using rentals, or wish you'd taken private lessons earlier or later or wish you'd practiced more or--whatever! )
