Children's Inline & Roller Skating Protection

Protective Gear for Junior Inline & Roller Skating

When it comes to inline and roller skating, protective gear is essential for children. While the thrill of having wheels underfoot is exhilarating for young ones and teenagers alike, there is the inherent risk of falling. A significant crash can dampen the enthusiasm to learn and progress in the sport. Therefore, high-quality protection for the head and junior skate pads are crucial for those eager to explore the excitement of wheeled action.

How to Select the Appropriate Protective Gear for My Child?

Common injuries for children and juniors on inline skates often involve the knees, elbows, or wrists. Although head falls are less frequent, they can lead to severe injuries. Thus, essential protective gear for your child includes a set of protection pads and a children's skate helmet, specifically designed to protect the back of the head, as there is a tendency to fall backwards, particularly with quad roller skates.

To find the correct size of protective pads for your child, consult the size chart for the particular model. The same applies to helmets; measure the circumference of your child’s head and select the appropriate size. Don't forget to review our guide on How to Wear Your Helmet.

Now, onto the exciting part: It's well-known that the look of equipment plays a vital role in encouraging young individuals to fully take on new gear. The manufacturers recognise this too, so in our range, you’re spoilt for choice with vibrant colours and designs aimed at inspiring children and teenagers to pursue their skating passion while remaining safe!
