I bought my first Inline Skates in the middle of the
90s.
Vienna. Danube Island: My first steps
on Inline Skates were very unstable. A young boy is going
to help me: He offers me a wooden stick. It's like
a 3rd leg and it feels quite comfortable. A small orange
ball comes along.
The wooden stick is revealed as an Inline Hockey stick:
The hunt for the goals starts...
Soon I learned the "basics" of Inline Hockey
via
the several times Austrian champions Red Dragons, trained
by Tomas Poloprudsky. Playing matches in the Eastern
League helped me improving my Inline Hockey skills
quickly.
This could be seen as well during a Birthday Match
to honor my first 30 years: From the beginning shorthanded
- I love challenges - we won in the second
half by 9:7.
This was the start... IceHockey
followed...
