Why Is Roller Skating Difficult? It Doesn’t Have To Be!

February 28, 2023 by Writers Leave a Comment

Roller skating doesn’t have to be intimidating for beginners! Anyone can learn to roller skate and have fun doing it with the right gear and the right attitude. The key is to start slow and practice until you get comfortable with the basics whether you opt for quads or blades. It just takes the proper preparation and a little patience.

The Roller Skating Learning Curve For Beginners

There can be a learning curve for beginners to skate. You have to adjust to being on wheels and find the right techniques to help you stay balanced and move in the direction you want to go. You also have to get used to the feel of different kinds of gear and discover the best way for you to stay safe and enjoy your time on skates. With practice, patience, and some basic knowledge, you can overcome the learning curve and master the basics of skating.

Having The Proper Gear And Being Prepared

When beginning roller skating, it is important to make sure you have the right safety gear. For a beginner, this should include a quality pair of roller skates, protective gear (such as elbow and knee pads, wrist guards, and a helmet), and maybe even some extra padding for your hips and tailbone. 

Quads Or Rollerblades When Learning How To Roller Skate

What works best? Ultimately, it’s up to you. Quads are the classic option, with four wheels that provide stability and maneuverability. The traditional style of roller skates has been popular for decades. Alternatively, rollerblades feature four or five wheels in a single row and often provide increased speed and agility.

If you’re a beginner, chances are that quads will be more comfortable and easier to learn. They offer more balance and stability than blades, as you can distribute your weight over four wheels. If speed is what you’re after, blades may be a better choice. When making your decision between quads or blades, the most important thing to consider is your own comfort level. Try them both out and go with what feels right for you!

Learning to roller skate doesn’t have to be intimidating for beginners! Whether you are learning how to skate on quads or blades, it is important to stay calm and remember to have fun. Take your time as you learn the basics of skating, you don’t need to rush yourself. The more relaxed and confident you are, the more fun you will have.
