3 weaknesss about fitness roller skate

all friends , anyone of you ever come to thailand ?
in thailand there are so much interesting  including amazing things making you confused sometime ha ha ha .let's check it out yourself and if you come and face any trouble feel free to contact me.

now raining everyday .hot and wet that's it !!
so we can't do some skate recently  as we don't have indoor skate ring ( used to ) however we are lucky there are many ice rings in bangkok ,hmm nice

 
the rink arena at central rama 9 
today we are going to look insight into "fitness style roller skate" especially the weak point blocking your high performances !!

first point

it's the long frame + heel break this length is killing me , i play freestyle slalom so the frame length only 237-243mm ( absolutely no heel break )

imagine when you perform "cross over" tricks ,with fitness skate am sure you will find it difficult ,very difficult then fall definitely and easily

and one thing more with frame is that "the frame position is locked" so you can't correct the "inside edge" or "outside edge" issue
that's bad huh

frame position is blocked
for many rollerblade models coming with "plastic frame"

the picture already shows the huge different of frame
second

            the boot is too soft like a sport shoes,wearing fitness skate makes you feel comfortable(unfit) yet really hard to control as the boot' s shape keeps changing  caused from body weight ,and yes the shape of your feet change the form of boots also "causing inside or outside edge standing"
soft boot has problem as it's soft

when you run with high speed by wearing unfit shoes that's horrible !!

third
wheels pattern.you can say  flat wheel" meaning use the same size of wheels giving full friction from the ground .every time you turn the direction you must fight hard
for slalom we use "rokering style" by putting small wheels in front and last position












with this wheels pattern allow skaters to perform high trick level like spin,toe spin,toe toe spin

hmm i think that's enough for major weak point of "fitness roller skate"

enjoy your day enjoy rollerblading !!


your skate ,your style ,the type of your shoes

Am talking about real roller skate or roller blade but not a toy with wheels so there are 4 skate types

fitness one , i have seen many using fitness style as easy to find and buy , one character  telling you that is fitness skate is " HEEL BRAKE"


you might think heel break is useful , maybe wrong !!but we talk about that later !!


next is aggressive skate
BIG , FAT ,TOUGH,JUMP AND FALL is the best explanation.. lol

however you need ramp to play with


Speed..yes if you are speed lover , you gonna love this the fastest skate of all

with 9-10cm diameter wheel size ,you can enjoy an incredible speed like "road runner"but with a long frame and giant wheel you loose "flexibility"


and here comes the last one ..slalom skate to me this is the best for everyone ,stunning speed ,nice boots,best performance and flexible ,let's just say it's my recommendation !!

slalom skate for multipurpose use ( comes with hard boot )

slalom skate for real slalom lover ( leather boot with carbon fiber )

this is why i told you it's the best for every one ,check the clips out and you will know "performance"
