What Are Urban Skates?

Urban Skates are designed specifically for skating in city environments, where quick movements, sharp turns and dodging obstacles are key. Unlike fitness or speed skates, which are built for smooth and consistent terrain, They are designed for versatility and durability in varied environments. Whether skating on rough pavement, jumping off curbs or weaving through busy streets, the skates provide the control and stability needed for an urban adventure.

What Are Freeride Inline Skates?

Freeride Skates are a subcategory of urban inline skates designed for skaters who enjoy combining urban navigation with more technical tricks and slides. These skates balance speed, agility and durability, allowing skaters to perform jumps, slides, and slalom moves while navigating the urban jungle. Freeride Skates are perfect for skaters who want to push their limits and challenge themselves with more advanced techniques while exploring the city.

Advantages of Urban Skates and Freeride Skates

• Built for Durability

  Urban environments can be tough on skates, so urban skates are designed to be more durable than regular inline skates. They feature reinforced boots, sturdy frames, and harder wheels to withstand the impact of rough surfaces, jumps and obstacles commonly found in city landscapes.

• Versatility for Tricks and Freeride Moves

  Freeride inline skates allow for technical moves, including jumps, slides and slalom techniques, making them perfect for skaters who enjoy performing tricks in urban environments. Their robust construction and supportive design ensure you have the stability and control needed to land complex moves.

• Comfort for Extended Skating Sessions

  While Urban Skates are built for performance and durability, they don't compromise comfort. These skates feature padded liners, adjustable straps and ergonomic designs that support your feet and ankles during extended skating sessions.

• Enhanced Control

  Many freeride skates come with a rockered frame setup, with slightly higher middle wheels than the front and back wheels. This setup allows for enhanced control, mainly when performing slalom moves or navigating tight turns. This feature is ideal for skaters prioritising agility and precision in their skating style.
