    Roller SKATER, not rollerblader.

    I’m wondering what my career should be…

    You can try. Just remember, even if you make it - hardly a given, since it's a demanding sport, this is likely to be a short career. Better study dentistry as a backup.

    Yes. everyone should become a professional roller skater. War would end, and everyone would be happy.

    Only if you skate much better than your peers. In the sport of climbing one must be truly outstanding and even then the money is not great. You might end up being sponsored with your monetary rewards in free roller skates.

    If roller skating is your only option, then you should probably pursue it, but you should also consider other proximally interesting options. You might want to have a non-athletic career as a backup in case you get injured in a way that prevents you from continuing a skating career.

    Additionally, you should think about the possibility of AI robots taking over the sport in the near future. With rapid recent advancements in deep-skate network architecture, human skaters may soon become altogether obsolete in the sport of roller skating.

    Study the history of roller skating, and find out what kind of roller skating is for you.

    Now that a year has gone by, could you tell us if you finally got to be a professional roller skater? :eyes:

    How much have you skated since then? The council of my town built a skate park, and a lot of folks do skate every hour there. But they are not pros, I guess...
