What's the difference between dancing skates and artistic skates?
Although artistic roller skating incorporates a dance element, roller dancing isn't necessarily the same thing. A disco or funk groove, with aspects of hip-hop, as you glide around the dance floor throwing your best shapes: sound tempting? Roller dancing, which emerged from African-American culture, has seen something of a resurgence all over the world in recent years.
The revival of roller dancing
Social networks are full of skaters who are just starting out or who excel in choreography on roller skates. Get started with this fun and limitless pleasure.
So can you use these skates for everything?
These roller skates have been created by the Oxelo design team to respond to everyone's roller dancing or artistic roller skating needs. The high top, low heel and brake - which is lower than on "fitness" skates - all aid your artistic and dance movements (forward walks, backward walks, etc.).
What roller skates should you choose for gliding around town?
If you want some skates for gliding around town, on cycle lanes, for example, we recommend a pair of quad fitness skates.With these artistic quad skates, you can move around town to get to your dance spot.
Why do some of the photos show the skates without brakes?
For certain roller dancing moves, you can remove the brake pad (or stopper), as Ella has done in the artistic quad skate photos and videos. This enables her to perform bigger moves, as well as some very specific ones, without the brake catching on the floor. When you first start skating, there's no need to remove the brake.
Should you wear protective gear when you start roller dancing or artistic skating? If so, what?
Like in all gliding sports, falling is just part of learning (even for experienced skaters). For maximum protection, we recommend wearing knee pads, wrist guards and a helmet at the absolute minimum. Elbow guards and protective shorts can also be valuable allies when your balance is shaky.
How are these artistic roller skates designed?
Boot: Synthetic PU.Brake: Injected PU (leaves no marks on flooring)
These figure skates comply with EN 13899. What does the standard cover?
The EN 13899 European standard defines the rules for roller sports equipment and roller skates.This standard specifies the safety requirements, specifications concerning test methods, markings, and information provided in order to reduce the risk of injury.The current standard applies to rollers skates designed for users weighing more than 20 kg but less than 100 kg.
How do you replace worn parts?
Spare parts (58 mm/85A wheels, ABEC 5 or ABEC 7 bearings) are available in-store and online.We recommend regularly switching the wheels around (swap the two wheels on the inside of the foot with the ones on the outside) to even out wear. The same for the brakes: by switching the left and right brakes, they will wear out more evenly and last for longer.
