Today, I had my first ice skating lesson. I had to wait 5 years for a rink to open in my town, 2 weeks for my lessons to begin, but only 10 minutes to fall and hit my tailbone so hard that I can't walk. FML

The circle of life is a vicious one. Take heed, wear protection.

from experience: you can NOT wear protection for your tailbone. I'm a hockey player and an excellent skater and even i have hit my tailbone a few times. even if she were wearing hockey pants they dont afford any real protection. FYL op that hurts like hell.

shouldn't your instructor tell you what to wear? and if you don't have it they make u buy it. There are these pants for all ages that have a cushioning on the tush you really need to get informed YDI for being stupid and this is a total fake FML

37, you are a wise man, people on this site do not know what they are talking about.

There is padding designed for figure skaters that offers some protection, if one knows how to fall. It's a bit of a tradeoff, however, between looking ridiculous and not offering much protection; I wore very thin padding that kept repeated falls from being too painful, but wasn't terribly visible (being a guy in trousers helped), whereas a number of others wore thick pads that made them look completely absurd.

The first time I'd ever gone ice skating was less than a year ago.... And I fell once the entire afternoon. don't be a spastic.

Looks like someone got their ass handed to them on a silver plate of chocolate devils cake filled with banana cream from a donkey riding an elephant under the water as it slowly loses oxygen and begs for help from Saten himself but would later regret asking help from the devil because the price needed to pay for help would have been the unborn daughter of his wifes grandmother father who was at the time a clown giving away free bjs at circuses near you... Juliet then dies and the play was over... The end.

LMAO ..I forgot to breathe reading that.. and I didn't even read it out loud >.>

Its also a noun- referring to 'mentally handicapped'. I don't live in your country. I'll rephrase, I fell once after a few hours of skating. And then kept skating. It wasn't that hard to avoid hurting yourself.

lol weird how just went ice skating today, but hey look to the future no pain no gain
