Does rollerblading help ur skiing ?

And the answer is is plain and simple, yes. It practices fakie landings and keeping stability in the air.

Also, I think there are other threads about this, use the searchbar

It helps, it uses a lot of the similar muscles, like the quads, hamstrings (helps keep your knees healthy by keeping the two balanced), as well as glutes.

Id think so becuse riding aound is similar to skiing but tricks might be different

You will have a to of people on this site talk shit about rollerblading and say it has nothing to do with skiing. They only go by whatever snowboarder magazine told them it was lame. Skating is very similar to skiing. As said above, same muscles, balance, coordination. Shit is fun.

Well with rollerblading there is a smaller area for you to land on so your landings get much better because you get used to having to land perfect for your trick to work. Balance on rails gets way better in my opinion as well...
