yesterday
We talked about skipping when we were hanging out the other day.
And then, since we hadn’t done it since elementary school, we decided to give it a try.
Our skipping was super awkward, and we couldn’t stop laughing.
Kids skipping is very cute, but adults skipping isn't cute at all. 🤣
(By "skipping," I mean walking while lightly hopping on alternating feet.)
スキップ再び
先日、私たちが一緒に遊んでいたときに、スキップの話になりました。
そして、小学校以来スキップなんてしていなかったのですが、「やってみよう」という話になって、実際にやってみました。
ものすごい、ぎこちないスキップで、私達は大爆笑でした。
子供のスキップは可愛いけど、大人のスキップは全く可愛くないです。🤣
(スキップとは片足ずつ交互に軽く飛びながら歩く事を書いています。)

Perfecto! I think your sentences are very natural this time around. For example, the way you translated "そして、小学校以来スキップなんてしていなかったのですが、「やってみよう」という話になって、実際にやってみました。" into natural-sounding English without translating word-for-word is excellent in my opinion. If I had to nitpick about one thing, it would be that "hopping on alternating feet" means that you aren't really walking, so "walking while lightly hopping on alternating feet" is a little contradictory. But I believe everyone can understand what you mean perfectly, so I think it is fine as it is. So, really great job! 🤗
WeNOTE: If readers know who "we" refers to, then the original is fine. (My guess is that many readers do not know who "we" refers to.)
BETTER: My friend and I talked about skipping when we were hanging out the other day.

Skipping: it is probably goo exercise. Perhaps it is a good way to reduce aging?

As another user has noted, "from foot to foot" might sound a little more natural than "on alternating feet".

Well written overall!

Your version was grammatically correct, but this phrase is a common one and easier for native speakers to visualise.

I wonder if part of the awkwardness of adults skipping is a self-consciousness that stops them from moving fluidly haha
