Looks like you did really well! I started on roller too, and switched to ice about 8 months ago. At first, I switched back and forth and played both (a few games a week), but I soon found that I had to pick one or the other, because the time I was spending on ice was changing what I was trying to do on roller. I'd go down and my brain/body would expect to slide, and when I didn't, I ended up almost hurting myself a few times. Eventually I just stuck with ice because I enjoy that so much better.
I guess if you mostly do roller, and just do ice now and then, it won't be as bad. But I was doing it the other way around, and I just decided that I should stop roller, just to keep from getting hurt. Either way.... good luck!
