What to Do When You Can't Skate

As I mentioned, my shins had become pretty beaten in the past few sessions skating, so I'm giving them a rest for a couple of days.

What do I do in the meantime to not lose the momentum? I thought about springing for one of those balance boards like the VewDo, but the pricetag put me off. So instead I've been doing some calf and thigh exercises, the most effective being a squat that you leap straight up from. Nice and exhausting.

Also, now I'm diving into skate-related web sites and discussion forums, mostly lurking to read up on tricks kids are doing these days and ideas that will help me get done what I want to get done.
