As a beginner, we recommend a hard boot with a high top for ankle support and a raised heel. This is to help you get used to keeping your knees bent and leaning forward when using Roller Quad Skates.

At SkateHut we know Skates sizing can be difficult, so our helpful Customer Service team is on hand to assist with any questions or queries you may have. We often recommend sizing up in most SFR and LMNADE skates, but the Rio Roller skates range is closer to being true to size. If you expect growth, or if you have wide feet or are currently at a x5 size, we recommend sizing up. If your Skates end up being a little roomy, we always say thick socks work a charm and make for a cosy skate. Generally, the Rookies and the Rio's are true to size. Trainer designs in particular are more generously sized so we recommend these for wider feet. Specifically, the Rookie Magic Skates, Rookie Harmony, Rookie Legacy Skates and the Rio Roller Luminas are ideal for this. Browse our wide range of all different kinds of skates including Inline Skates, Ice Skates and Ice Hockey Skates.

Quad Skates FAQs

  • How to Roller Skate?

    The three main tips for how to Roller Skate are bent knees, eyes up, and practice. Mastering the basics of skating essentially comes down to the understanding of shifting weight and balance. When participating in any kind of skating, be it wheels or blades attached to your feet, it’s essential to push through your knees and face forward, always looking ahead of you. When you Skate looking downwards, you're far more likely to fall as this will throw off your balance.

    A lot of competent skaters also find that their pads give them more confidence to skate. Skating without pads can change your skate drastically, especially as a beginner. In relation to this, nailing the bail is also super important. Falling backwards can be super dangerous in terms of hitting your head or falling on your butt. Knee Pads and learning to bail onto your knees will minimise damage caused while you practise and drill your moves.

  • Is Roller Skating Good Exercise?

    Roller skating is a great, low impact cardio and strength training full body workout. Favoured by those who suffer joint injuries or susceptible to encountering issues jogging or in the gym, Roller Skating provides a levelled, full body exercise. Before entering anything advanced such as street, park or artistic skating, the basics of skating are universally beneficial.

    As well as being arguably one of the most fun cardio exercises, Roller Skating can help improve your balance and spatial awareness alongside motor skills. This makes it great for younger skaters or those who suffer from impact injury or issues. The lack of harsh impacts makes skating an accessible exercise for those who may find running or other cardio challenging.

  • How Much Are Roller Skates?

    A decent first pair of Skates can be around €35. Any lower and you’re sacrificing valuable quality that could be detrimental to your experience learning to Skate. A decent quality and brand of Skate sets you up best moving forward (and backwards) in skating. Adjustable Roller Skates allow for greater longevity, although could lack comfort compared to set size Kids Roller Skates.

    Once you get into more advanced skating or perhaps you’ve outgrown your entry level Skates, we’d pin a decent pair of beginner / intermediate Skates at around €80 to €100. These will have higher quality components and the ability to handle more intense use. Some Skates in this range will also feature an adjustable toe stop. This allows for extended range of movement within the toe box and when carrying our advanced manoeuvres on Skates.

  • What's the difference between quad skates and roller boots?

    The terms "quad skates" and "roller boots" are often used interchangeably, but strictly speaking, "roller boots" can refer to any type of roller skates that have a boot-like design, while "quad skates" specifically refer to roller skates that have four wheels arranged in a square pattern.

    Traditionally, "roller boots" were used in roller rinks and for artistic skating, and they had a high-top boot that provided ankle support and protection. In contrast, quad skates were used for outdoor skating, and they had a lower-cut boot that allowed for greater flexibility and movement. However, today, the lines between the two types of roller skates have blurred, and there are many hybrid designs that combine features of both quad skates and roller boots.

    Overall, the main difference between quad skates and roller boots is the wheel arrangement, with quad skates having four wheels in a square pattern and roller boots having various wheel configurations. The choice between the two will depend on personal preference, intended use, and skating style.
