What is roller skating extreme sports

With the continuous progress of society, people are now beginning to try more extreme sports. Among them, roller skating has now become a fashionable sport for most young people. Some young people also use roller skating as a means of transportation. In the early days, roller skating was derived from roller skating and ice skating, but now it is uniformly called roller skating. There are two types of roller skates: double-row roller skates and single-row roller skates. Next, let’s take a closer look at the origin and equipment of roller skating extreme sports.

origin

The earliest skates, which date back to 1100 AD, were made of bones attached to the soles of long leather boots to help hunters hunt in winter. The first pair of ice skates was created in 1700 by a Scotsman named Dutchman, who wanted to simulate winter skating in the summer, so he attached long strips of wood with nailed spools to his shoes. In this year the first skating club was formed in Edinburgh.

Facilities and Equipment

Roller Skates

Inline skates are mainly composed of four major parts: upper shoe, axle frame, bearings and wheels. The axle frame is the core component, and all components are connected into one through the axle frame. The main events of double-row roller skating are figure skating, speed skating, roller hockey and free skating. Some people also use roller skates outdoors for cruising or team blocking games.

That is, the shoe shape component of the roller skates, which is the main component that determines the performance of the roller skates. The upper shoe is generally divided into two parts: the outer shell and the liner, but speed skating shoes and some professional flat skates do not have an outer shell and an inner liner. Among roller skates, only speed skates lack a thing that other types of roller skates have, called a cuff. Its function is to protect the ankle and make it easier for the ankle to exert its strength. The liner is the thick sponge layer inside the shoe, which can be taken out and cleaned separately (please consult the salesperson for details before cleaning, and do not disassemble and clean it without permission). Its function is to relieve the friction between the foot and the outer shell. The most important thing is that the thick liner cotton can make the roller skates wrap the feet very well, thereby perfectly bringing out the performance of the roller skates and making it easier for users to learn roller skating skills.

The above is a detailed introduction to the origin and equipment of roller skating extreme sports. Ordinary young people may wish to use roller skating as an entertainment activity, which can be used for entertainment and physical exercise at the same time. Small competitions can also be held during leisure activities or gatherings with friends to help young people relax and release stress from work or study.
