Side by Side Roller-Skates

In this category you can find a pair of retro-styled side-by-side roller-skates and join the disco beat for some fitness, exercise, or casual roller-skating.

What is a side-by-side roller-skate?

Side-by-side roller-skates are skates with four wheels, which are placed in the same manner as wheels on a skateboard. Side-by-side roller skates can be used for fitness and exercise or fun and play.
This type of skates has been on the market for years, but in the 60s they became particularly popular for disco music and roller-skating. Later in the 80s, they came back into fashion as outdoor roller-skates for fun exercise and play. Today, they have become wildly popular again, due to the characteristic retro/vintage look, and we typically use them as a means of commuting, sports, and casual skating.

Who are side-by-side roller-skates for?

Why choose side-by-side roller-skates?

The four wheels give a higher balance and a greater sense of control over the skates. When you are new to skating, this can be an advantage - both in the sense that you get better experiences early on, but also to partly avoid falling and getting off on the wrong foot.

What to pay attention to when buying roller-skates

When you buy side-by-side roller-skates, you can quickly end up choosing a pair solely based on looks. Although they look good, it may well be that another pair of skates are better suited for what you need.
It is a good idea to pay attention to the wheel hardness of the roller-skates. The hardness is measured by a durometer scale, which goes from 0-100 A. The higher a numerical value, the harder your roller-skate wheels will be. Wheels with high hardness have high longevity, but less shock absorption. Whereas wheels with a lower numerical value, will wear faster, but will also have a better grip and shock absorption.
Another thing to be aware of when buying a pair of side-by-side roller skates is the material of the blade. Typically, blades are made of hard plastic or aluminum. Hard plastic such as nylon is lighter, but an aluminum blade is both stronger and stiffer, and therefore provides better acceleration.
One last thing that is worth considering when buying side-by-side roller skates is the ball-bearings. ABEC-9 ball-bearings roll better than ABEC-5. So, this often says something about the quality of the roller-skates you buy.

Side-by-side roller-skating equipment - What do you need?
