| You have to contact Heelys. Inc. for the contact. Heelys were invented by Roger R. Adams who is on the board of directors of Heelys. Inc. and started the company in 2000. He is either the first Heeler or knows who is. |

| He was the first heeler but the first heelers to bring out the product were Austin Greene and some other dude. Thus their nicknames the original heelers. |

he WAS and i highly doubt anyone knows where he is. He's not too into the whole video making/ going on forums scene but i know last video he was in was merlyns Team East coast meets west side...or the heelys commercial. I dont think you can call from over there but try 1-888-Heeling |

I think it was Mike Buffo and Austin Greene that brought them into the public. AND their both from the WC.  |

Roger Adams was the first person to ride Heelys. This should be obvious because Heelys didn't exist before he invented them.
Austin Greene is the "official" person after Roger.
Please see this link:

I am the first person to skate Heelys on vert. I did it as a rebuttal on the old (now defunct) Run-and-Roll forum, and documented that you can, in fact, drop in without killing yourself.
If you need Austins Greenes contact info, please send me some PM. I still have his e-mail and phone number.

Nope Mike Buffo got them after he saw a kid in school had them Austin Greene LITERALLY presented them to the public.
