Getting Started On New Roller Skates

Great Article From Roller Girl ( rollergirl@rollergirl.ca )В about Skate Maintenance getting started on new roller skates

No matter what your skill level, it is important to take some time to get used to your new skates. Every pair of roller skates will feel different and even the seasoned skater needs time to adjust to these differences.

Find yourself a smooth, flat and safe place (away from traffic) to skate. Practice the skills of skating forward, turning and stopping. Please be warned that even a small hill can induce high speeds. Skating in or around traffic is extremely dangerous and should only be attempted by those who have thoroughly mastered the skills listed above and can maintain a high level of control.

Beginners are strongly advised to wear appropriate gear (knee pads, wrist guards, elbow pads and helmet). Even if you are not a beginner, it is still a good idea to protect yourself. Cement bites hard given the chance. Wearing proper gear can also allow you to push your limits without the fear of serious injury.

If roller skating for the first time try to stay relaxed, don’t lock your knees, and don’t get frustrated if you don’t catch on immediately. A little practice and you will be rolling in no time!
