While many businesses have been suffering during the ongoing pandemic, there is no industry that has seen an incredible resurgence in popularity, one that it hasn't seen in probably twenty years: roller skating.

Because the demand for skating was so high, Mo Sanders opened Good Foot Skates in Oak Cliff near the end of 2020. Sanders told WFAA, "I had a line outside the door and around the building with people waiting to get skates."


Sanders is even having trouble keeping skates in stock, and has backorder into the thousands. "Every new box that shipped to his store was sold quickly. It's good. I like it because it is bringing more people into it. And now people are remembering that they had fun roller-skating."

Let the good times roll!
