...Power, said yesterday his business has been booming since he opened five weeks ago. He said he had enjoyed skating last year in California so much he decided to open a store in Massachusetts: "Boston and Cambridge were ready for something new, a new form of exercise, a new way of getting high." He added that while the mechanics of roller wheels and bearings are related to those of skateboards, the sport itself is completely different. Skateboarding appeals more to young daredevils, but everyone can enjoy rollerskating. Since most people skate as children, they are not afraid to get back...
