rollerblade
Wheel down sidewalks
To rollerblade is to skate on inline skates—boots with a single row of wheels along the sole rather than the traditional two-by-two arrangement.
The word derives from the brand name but has become the generic verb for this activity: We used to rollerblade around the park every weekend. (Capitalized Rollerblade is the trademark.)
