We have all started skating one day. That first day when we decided to start inline skating is a day that we will remember for the rest of our lives.
A beginner who decides to learn to skate faces many doubts and fears. But once the decision is made to start skating, there is no regrets.
At Inercia we not only want you to get the best skates or accessories to get started in inline skating, but we are also here to advise you on any questions you may have about inline skating.
A good way to start learning more about inline skating is to take a look at our inline skates buying guide. From here, you can get an idea of the type of skate that is most suitable for a beginner.
Also, don't forget to wear the right protective gear, as all learning to skate involves a fall or two, and it's better if it's painless, right?
Welcome to inline skating and we hope to see you soon!
There is no category of inline skates for beginners. At Inercia we have made a selection of inline skates that are best suited to the beginner skater in terms of features and price. What we are looking for are economical but quality skates with basic features to make it much easier to learn to skate.
There are many ways to brake with inline skates, although some techniques require a lot of practice. The easiest way to brake on inline skates, especially if you are a beginner, is by using the brake block placed on the heel of the skates. Most beginner skates have this as standard, but if you don't, you can buy a universal brake.
No!!!! There is no age limit. Obviously, the older you get, the more risky a fall can be. But if you take the minimum safety precautions and follow the advice of a skating instructor, the risk is really low and the fun and learning is guaranteed!
The brake on inline skates is a safety feature that allows us to brake relatively easily. On beginner skates, it is almost essential to mount it.
Both hard-boot and soft-boot inline skates can be suitable for beginners. However, hard-boot inline skates will help you feel more confident as your foot will feel more secure and will prevent you from making mistakes such as wearing your skates crooked.
