Is 30 years too old to start skating?

Am I too old? Went to a sports shop and they didn't have skates the size of an adult shoe. They looked at me weird when I said I need training skates. And they refused to let me wear the biggest size they had because it could break under my weight (I weight 50kg).

The other store I went to, only has 1 adult size. They looked at me weird too when I said it's for myself. They had inline skates for adults, but no training skates in adult size. As if adults can't train?

I felt kind of discouraged.

One person I met online I told my plan to start skating, and they just sent me a 馃槼 emoji.

Ice skating? No it鈥檚 not too late! And you do not need training skates. Get some lessons and show up with your big girl skates. They have the push bar you can use until you鈥檙e steady enough to use without
