Even this roller-skating knockout told me she also loves the passive delight of watching skating videos: “Sometimes I just put a random [roller] skating video from the late ’80s or ’60s. The music is so vibe-y in those videos. Sometimes I start my day with one of those videos to get me motivated and start the day right.”
One of the most satisfying things about skating, to Janta, is that it’s infectious: Seeing someone skate triggers something admiring and covetous in the viewer, and makes them want to skate, whether or not they stick with it. “It feels really really good when I see that they start and succeed in roller-skating, it just makes me really really happy. I got at least a quarter of my friends to try roller-skating — they bought skates, too.
