We had 23 brands for running, eye projection, apparel, gear & equipment and more at the Athletic Expo yesterday. I was pretty ignorant about both rollerblades and bowling shoes and I learned quite a bit about both of them yesterday. For instance I did not know that bowling shoes had a different sole for each foot. One foot slides so that shoe has a relatively slick sole (I knew that) and the other grips or "plants" so that sole is not slippery. And for rollerblades I learned that high end, high speed roller blades have special fins built into the wheels to cool the axle bearing.
