It is advised that skaters wear pads at all times. As well as pads providing protections and significantly reducing the risk of injury,they also greatly assist ones confidence when learning new skills and in turn increase ones ability.
One of the most important techniques to learn when rollerblading is how to fall. If a skater can learn to fall correctly and painlessly, they will be much more inclined to try new techniques with confidence. Flowskate beginner sessions focus not only on the basic stride 1 and heel break stop techniques but also on falling techniques.
