Roller Skating is Growing in Popularity

Google trends shows a recent spike in searches for roller skates! Before you go and purchase a pair of the retro footwear, here’s some advice. Skates with hard wheels that are marketed for both indoor and outdoor skating will make your ride bumpy. It’s best to invest in soft outdoor wheels to make the experience more fun. Good-quality skates are also important for beginners. You’ll want to start slow, practice just standing in them and shifting your weight before hitting the streets.
