Whether you have or have yet to skate Freedom Skate, Great EsSkate, Big Apple Roll, Friday Night Skates, EuroRoll, North Shore InLine Marathon, or any of the grand skating events, you have met those who share your spirit for skating: we live to skate, maybe skate to live. Here reconnect with those you miss.

Not just for browsing, nor for posting, which plenty of bulletin boards offer, Tribe.net is for finding people and connecting, not just locally, but nationally. More functional than Friendster and MySpace, less hierarchal and segmented than Yahoo or Google Groups, and organized by metro areas, Tribe facilitates introductions and interactions where trust matters. Like Friendster and MySpace but unlike Yahoo and Google Groups, the friends you find and connect here no moderator may take from you.

You skate. Others skate. You don't know them and they don't know you, but across four degrees of separation, you know many in common. Discover them and let them discover you. Even if you know plenty who skate, help connect to each other yet others who skate.

The reality is all anyone needs to skate are pavement and skates. No one need join anything. But by skating with others, even one other, skating evolves from solitary exercise into social sport. In that process skating develops a voice. Maybe your family thinks skating is crazy, and all you need is someone to share your insanity! Maybe your regular path needs repair, but the responsible authority hardly knows you care. Here express and lend your voice to help others, to help ourselves, to help yourself.

Here help seed the evolution.
