ラトビアのNils。イスラエルのBobi。 インラインスケートやってなかったら出会う事もなかったやろうし、3人ともスケートに全力で向き合ってるからこうやって一緒に滑れたのだと思うと奇跡やなって思いました。 インラインスケートやり続けてる人生で良かった！ Rough Google Translation: Nils Jansons from Latvia, Robert Spassov from Israel. If I hadn’t done inline skating, I wouldn’t have met, and I thought it was a miracle to think that all three of us were skating together because they were all facing skating. I’m glad I’ve been doing inline skating! - Takeshi Yasutoko.
