Inline Skates – How to Choose the Right Skates for Your Riding Style

Types of skates by purpose

Fitness skates like ROLLERBLADE Roleri ženski macroblade 90 neutral grey-paradise pink veličina 41 with larger wheels (80-90mm) enable fast and stable riding over longer distances. Recreational models with smaller wheels provide better control for beginners and urban skating. Brands such as ROLLERBLADE, OXELO and DECATHLON offer a wide range of models for all experience levels.

Wheel size and skating speed

Wheels with 80-84mm diameter are ideal for beginners as they provide stability and easier control. Wheels of 90mm and larger allow higher speeds and smoother rides over rough surfaces, but require more experience. Wheel hardness (78A-85A) also affects comfort – softer wheels better absorb vibrations on rough asphalt.

Closure system and comfort

A quality closure system combines Velcro strap, buckles and laces for secure and stable fit. Properly fitted skates should not allow heel movement or squeeze your toes. Always try skates with the socks you'll wear while skating and leave room for foot expansion during activity.

Choosing skates by skill level

Beginners should look for models with lower cuff, wide base and good lateral ankle support. Advanced skaters can choose more agile models with narrower construction and higher quality bearings. Brands like KEEN OPTION and BTWIN offer affordable options for first steps, while ROLLERBLADE and OXELO deliver performance features for experienced riders.

Protective gear – mandatory addition

Helmet, knee pads, elbow pads and wrist guards are not optional but essential when skating. Even experienced skaters can fall on unexpected bumps or at higher speeds. Quality protection significantly reduces injury risk and increases confidence during rides.

Maintenance and extending lifespan

Regular bearing cleaning and wheel wear inspection extend the life of your skates. Rotating wheels every 20-30 hours of skating ensures even wear and more stable riding. Store skates in a dry place and avoid skating on wet surfaces as moisture damages bearings and reduces performance.
