Things Required for Skating

Skates

When you start with skating, the first thing you should have is a good pair of skates. You should go for a good fitting skate so that it does not come out while skating. Instead of buying a new pair, take them on rent or borrow them from someone.

Clothes

Where ever you go for skating, the temperature will be around 50oF to 24oF. So, it’s very necessary to take care of your clothing. You should wear something which is warm and should also be comfortable, Don’t take sharp jewelry, like two double finger ring, earring studs. To kid, don’t take toys with corner, like Rubik’s Cube. Gloves and mittens are compulsory as they not only protect you hands from cold but also give protection from injuries if you fall. Apart from this, helmets are optional but as a beginner wearing helmet will be a better idea.

Correct Posture for Skating

Posture is very important for balancing. Avoid leaning forward to minimize the risk of falls. Chin-up, chest out, body straight, knees slightly bend, hands and arms to your side, hips over your heels, weight over the instep, etc. If you do not have figure skates and you are practicing with hockey skates, you have to put you weight to the front side of the blades as they lack the tail of figure skates.
