What type of skating?
Perhaps the most common type of skating is recreational skating. If you’re not sure what type of skating you’re going to be doing, I would suggest start out by trying recreational skates – these are probably the most common skates and are generally good all-rounders. All the other types of skating are specialised disciplines, and the skates used will be optimised for those disciplines. A good pair of recreational skates will give loads of skating pleasure, and still allow you to at least try out some of the other disciplines once your skating has improved.
