Why Rollerblading Isn't MAINSTREAM!

Rollerblading was huge in the 90s. At it's peak there was 29.1 million people putting on inline skates and going out for a roll. It was mainstream.

In the 2000s rollerblading was doing big gaps, grinding longer handrail and do more insane stunts than any other extreme sports.

But rollerblading was dying.

When inline skating shot to fame, it was young with very little history and not a lot of it's own culture. When it was attacked by skateboarding it didn't have anything to fall back onto.

Since them, it's developed a culture and simply through people continuing to do it - created a rich history. But why isn't rollerblading mainstream?
