Pack an Outdoor Skating Bag!

- A bag to carry stuff (fanny pack, camelbak, etc.)
- Water in a bottle or anyway you enjoy it
- Skate Tool for quads or inlines. Trust us on this one, do not go outdoors without it
- Baror sustenance! You never know when you will need it
- License. You could get injured, and people will need to assist you, it happens
- Phone. Always have a phone in case you need to call an Uber, or a friend. It can track your mileage too!
