I. How to buy children’s roller skating protective gear
Most of the mainstream roller skating protective gear on the market are strap-type. Among them, the outer shell and the inner tank play a protective role.
1. Don’t just look at the hardness
Some parents think that the harder the outer shell of the roller skating gear, the safer it is, which is actually incorrect. When a collision occurs, the outer shell can be properly collapsed to buffer and absorb the collision energy, so the outer shell should not be too hard, but it must be tough.
2. Material comfort
The protective gear should not break when it is subjected to external force, so as to avoid the sharp fracture surface from scratching the skin and causing damage to the body. secondary damage.
Choose an elastic band with moderate elasticity, too tight will affect blood circulation, too loose will not be able to play a firm role (but loose is better than tight).
3. Don’t just look at the thickness
When many parents and mothers buy helmets, they pay attention to the thickness of the helmet and let their children wear heavy helmets. The helmet is not only not conducive to heat dissipation, but also increases the burden on the neck and bends the child’s spine.
When purchasing a helmet, choose a helmet made of high-density EPS foam, regardless of its lightness. Once it is hit violently, it will instantly spread the force to relieve its impact on the head.
4. Breathability
Choose an adjustable helmet with vents, adjust the size according to the child’s head circumference, and fix the breathable two. error.
In general, a good roller skating protective gear must meet the requirements of good sturdiness, good coverage, good air permeability, and good shock absorption effect. When buying roller skating protective gear for children, parents don’t necessarily have to go for a high price. The main function of the protective gear is protection, and the most important thing is whether the quality is up to standard. As long as the products produced by regular manufacturers are selected, there are labels that meet the relevant safety standards, and parents can choose at the appropriate price.
Second, children’s roller skates tutorial
1. First of all, emphasize before learning that safety is the key Most importantly, all roller skating protective gear such as helmets, knee pads, elbow pads, etc. are ready before practice.
2. Secondly, we must first learn the basic standing posture-V standing. The heels are close together, the toes are outward, and the entire foot shape becomes a V, which is also the origin of his name. Knees are slightly bent. When you have mastered this stance, you can go further and practice with your hands behind your back.
3. Start learning to walk in place below. On the basis of standing in a V shape, lift your feet up and put them down one by one. After you become proficient, you can increase the amplitude. At the same time, put your hands behind your back. This is a basic movement that you must learn before you start sliding.
4. Then you can start trying to slide. The first is to lift and lower the feet alternately in a V shape. Before lifting the feet, apply force slightly forward and upward. The movements should be light, and the steps should not be too large at the beginning, and the arms should swing back and forth in a rhythmic manner. Keep your balance while sliding and lean forward slightly.
