ing the quick-release fastener. Do not close it with
force.
3. To take the skates off, push the pressure slider (3) of
the quick-release fastener (4) in the direction of the
arrow and open the quick-release fastener (Fig. B).
Pull the rocker fastener (2) diagonally upwards and
pull the notched strap (1) from the opening of the
rocker fastener (Fig. C). Then open the Velcro fas-
tener (5, Fig. D) and untie the laces (6).
4. To not make any modifications to the skates that
could affect their safety. Only use original replace-
ment parts.
Note:
Ideally, you should attend a course with professional
instruction prior to beginning skating. Alternatively you
could ask a friend who already has experience with
inline skating to guide and assist you through the initial
steps.
Large, traffic-free areas such as parks or playgrounds
are ideal for practising. Some cities have set up skate
parks that are reserved for skaters, and are therefore
ideal for practising.
When learning it of great important that you adopt the
correct skating posture. Bend at the ankles, the knees
and hips to lower your centre of gravity a little. This
position increases your stability and therefore your
balance as well, seeing as your centre of gravity is
located centrally, above your skates.
Skating itself is now no longer difficult. First distribute
your weight onto the left skate, and push with your
right foot out and to the rear. You roll forward on the
left skate. Now pull your right leg forwards again in a
circular movement beneath your body, and push down
onto the skate. Now repeat the same movement with
the other side.
This means that you distribute your weight onto the
right skate and push with your left foot out and to the
rear. You now roll forwards on the right skate. Now
pull your left leg forwards again in a circular move-
ment beneath your body, and push down onto the
skate.
Repeat this a few times alternating between right and
left and that's you skating!
Stopping is one of the key skills when skating. In order
to use the rear brake (Fig. G), the stopper, position
yourself in the skating posture described above. Move
the skate with the stopper to the front and lift your toe.
This presses the stopper onto the ground and brakes.
When so doing, distribute around 60% of your body-
weight to the front and 40% to the rear foot. This ena-
bles you to avoid rotating about your own axis when
braking.
If your inline skates are not equipped with a brake or if
you have removed the brake, we recommend that you
brake by positioning your rear foot sideways. This
technique is rather more suited for advanced skaters!
To do so, distribute your entire weight onto one foot.
Now move the other foot behind the first, at right an-
gles to it. Then shift your weight from the front to the
inside of the wheels of your rear skate, and brake with-
in increasing pressure (Fig. H).
Practice braking so that you are always in control of
your speed.
Changing direction is really simple. To move to the
right, shift your weight onto the inside of the left and
the outside of the right skate. To move to the left, ac-
cordingly, shift your weight onto the inside of the right
and the outside of the left skate.
At higher speeds you can skate in a curve by stepping
over similar to cornering when ice skating (see Fig. I).
If you point your hands in the direction you want to go
it facilitates this change in direction. Do not carry out
these movements too vigorously so as to avoid losing
control and balance.
Experienced skaters can also use changes in direction
to brake. After a little practice, speed can be reduced
by skating in a slalom pattern. However, here a clear
view is required to avoid impeding on other rad users
and endangering yourself and others. To do so, move
in tight semi-circles. When skating downhill this enables
you to travel slightly uphill each time, thus slowing you
down.

Before adjusting the size, release the Velcro fastener
and untie the laces. Push the size adjustment pushbut-
ton (8) down and slide the shoe to the desired size
while holding the button pressed. The shoe must en-
gage with an audible "CLICK". Here the arrow on the
shoe indicates the corresponding size (9) on the chas-
sis.
