Road Skating! (1933)

Titles read: “Road Skating! In Berlin, too, and on asphalt, for the skates, though they look like ice skates, are a new type, running on small rollers.“ Great shots of a man roller-skating along the road leading away from the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin. He performs several turns, pirouettes and spins as a few civilians and policeman stand watching in stunned silence. The skates look more like roller blades than roller skates, with a line of small wheels running along the length of an ice-skating blade on the boot. FILM ID: A VIDEO FROM BRITISH PATHÉ.
