Skating was a passing fad for me when I was a kid.
The first skates everyone had were those crappy things that would clamp on to the soles of your shoes (they wouldn't work on tennis shoes). They were good for a laugh when they'd come loose on some kid as he went down a hill and was sent tumbling.
Then we got shoe skates and that was fun for a while. Black for boys, white for girls.
