so would it work good for riding back and forth on your sidewalk? And could you do it beside the road?

These skates are exactly what they say they are, roller derby skates, made for skating fast on a smooth surface, i supposed you could wear them on a sidewalk but i would wear kneepads!

I use these on a paved bike trail and they are OK. The wheels do not roll by themselves very well, I think it is something with low quality bearings, so it is difficult to keep up with others. If there are any little rocks or stuff on the trail it is impossible to roll, I have to "walk" past the obstacles. I prefer roller blades for outdoors use. I do not have these problems when I use my roller blades.

I mainly use it for sidewalks but occasionly go on a slight dirt path and it does ok. It's definitely more for pathed walks though.

It rides pretty well on both surfaces! Just overall, the board is rather flimsy compared to another Globe Nickel board I have and the bearings aren't quite as fast. But yeah, I suppose a smooth road is faster than the sidewalk.

It could be, but it doesn't really seemed designed for such use. It's a bit on the fragile side. Also, I'm not sure about the range of the controller for outdoor use.

You can use it along the grass. Run the wheel portion on the grass. A little tougher but will work.

Not well. It has plastic wheels that don't do well on grass and it will drain battery faster. Is fabulous on cement/sidewalk.Note the battery care must be followed, buy the extra care protection. We live in Texas so heat was inevitable, they reimbursed us for entire purchase amount cause the battery is not common and can't be replaced. But had a couple fabulous years riding it with my kids andI am medium sized adult.

It might but I would not recommend it. It would flop all over the place when you turned or came to a stop unless you could figure a way to secure it (otherwise could be dangerous) - it's really only meant to be strapped across you back with dog riding on your front.

Yes it can if there is enough room to mount it. I used it on vacation in New York recently while walking around. Its great!

It would work, but if you are riding on asphalt or sidewalks with expansion joints the 165# weight will not allow it to glide as much. You will have to kick often to keep on the move. Consider one with larger, softer wheels. EXPERIENCE: Tried it myself, was quite a workout.

Yes, it does a bit on the bumpy streets I ride on, but if you put some tape as buffer on the handle bar, it might prevent it from slopping. I haven't done it because it doesn't bother me that much. Maybe I just need to tighten the velcro more.

I have never tried it for that, I have a bike jack, you can do one at a time for sure, and you COULD probably balance it, but it wouldn't be very stable, Hope this helps

Yes. It works great for getting to cobwebs on the outside of the house, and around the windows outside.

I think it would be great for that when you're stationary. You'd want to remove it when you were driving though, because I don't think it would stand up to the winds, but it's VERY easy to remove and install.

not super well, the wheels can slip a little bit, however, I simply put some grip tape that you can buy here on Amazon or at a local hardware store and it solved the problem. It works great outdoors on the sidewalks though without the tape

You can, but it works better over pavement. My nephew is also concerned that using it on gravel scratched the rear tires, but this is what was expected and not a fault of the product in any way. It also works on grass, but its not ideal. To really get the most fun out of it, a parking lot or an empty street are the best possible places to use it.

I think there is no perfect answer. For city and walking on sidewalks, this is wonderful. It won't do well on rocks or uneven ground. I am happy?

It can go up slight hills but the battery needs to be fully charged to do so. It is most ideal on sidewalks.
