for christmas zac got a new pair of cruzshoes. like heelies, these are trainers with one wheel in each heel. they are everywhere. zac has owned a pair for a couple of years. it struck me today, that kids don’t even move in the same way i do. he never walks more than five yards without skating. i admit to being slightly envious. zac can run in them, play football etc, but they don’t perform as well as normal trainers unless you take out the wheel. what we need, i suggested to him, is retractable wheels. there’s a certain shuffle when he starts to skate, only then should the wheels protrude. i guess it’s only a matter of time. this got us onto the future evolutionary path of trainers. he favours hover shoes, maybe with flames shooting out of the back.
