Rollerblade Helmets

Read Description

Without a doubt, the most important piece of skate safety gear you need is an inline skate helmet. Even for seasoned pros, it's inevitable that you're going to fall when skating, whether it's due to a mistimed trick or just an unavoidable obstacle. During a fall, a helmet can protect you from a concussion, brain injury and, in a worst-case scenario, even death. While some skaters think that any skate safety gear, such as a bike helmet, will work just fine, grabbing an inline skate helmet made specifically for inline skating will ensure your complete safety.

For starters, a skating helmet designed specifically for inline skating will cover a greater portion of the back of your head. Unlike other sports, many falls in inline skating have the skater falling backward, so this extra protection could mean the difference between walking away from an accident and not walking away from it at all. Look for Rollerblade helmets made out of expanded polystyrene, which is a sturdy material that can shrug off blows like a championship boxer during the first round of a fight.

While the degree of protection is the number one thing to look for when choosing an inline skate helmet, comfort is almost equally as important. Look for Rollerblade helmets that have an adjustable strap with some extra cushioning added to it, which will ensure you get a snug fit without bruising your chin or cheek. You'll also want to look for an inline skate helmet that has some degree of ventilation, as built-up sweat will not only decrease the lifespan of your skate safety gear, but will cause it to emit a funky smell after only a few rides. If you're buying an inline skating helmet for a young child, look for a helmet that enables you to place extra safety add-ons on it, such as lights or a visor.

Lastly, color is also crucial when choosing Rollerblade helmets. While some skaters may want to look stylish and opt for black Rollerblade helmets, lighter colors are much safer. Bright colors such as white, yellow and orange will let others see you even in pitch-black conditions, which is of the utmost importance when skating near a busy street at night.
