The Day Of Researching The Rollerblades: :)

Today was the day I went out to go on my hunt to find out more about Rollerblades & what they are all about. I use to Rollerblade in the past but since I got hurt so much, I decided to not do it anymore ha ha!

I went to the SCARBOROUGH TOWN CENTER at 3:15 p.m on Saturday October 7, 2006. I went to Sports Chek the shop that will be the most common place to take photos from. I walked in and went straight upstairs & spoke to a sales representative. He already knew where I was from and what I was doing ha ha. Thanks to another female who has already took photos from that location. I introduced myself to him & told him what I wanted to do. He said take as many photo's as I feel I need. I ended up capturing 24 images of Rollerblades, which turned out to be so cool. I will upload them all for anyone who wishes to view it. I spent 15 minutes on that doing it on the sales floor (LIKE DUH) then I thanked him for allowing me to take pictures in the store.

Right before I was going to leave, a thought popped into my head. I wanted to see the TAG so I opened the box and browsed through it. I took a look at it and realized it was in over 5 different languages and was a pretty informative pamphlet. It showed me all the features on the skate & was interesting to read. The thing that sucked was the English section was not that many pages compared to the other languages. Now why do you think that is? If you did your research you will find out.

After I was done that, I asked the employee if anyone in the store was into Roller blading. He said he was, lucky me ha ha. So we spoke for about 15 minutes and I asked him a lot about the industry, the type of people who buy these high end products, why the price is so cheap compared to others, is the market in Canada good for Roller blading, how much Rollerblades do you think you sell a week etc. The questions just kept on rolling in my brain like the wheels on the blades ha ha. I found a lot, more than what I expected. I feel so motivated in my life right now that anything I do, I will succeed. The journey continues on finding out more about the MIGHTY ROLLERBLADES, H M M M M!

I will upload the 24 images I have took ON ANOTHER BLOG, I know it is a lot but get a feel for it. I took many angles and shot 4 different blades. ENJOY IT & PLEASE LEAVE COMMENTS.
