Fruit Booter

A "Fruit Booter" is a term used by skateborders that means rollerblader. It's also used as a derogatory term to describe a skateborder that doesn't know what he or she is doing.

~From Talk the Talk, The Slang of 65 American Subcultures.

Hmmmm... Where I come from (The Great White North) "booter" means something completely different. It occurs when you step into a snowbank (or mud puddle, if it's spring) and the cold dampness overflows your boot-top, thus soaking your foot (which is usually encased in a thick sock).

Getting a "booter" is never a pleasant experience...
