A Brief History of Roller Skating

July 27, 2015 by taylor Leave a Comment

You may not think too much about those roller skates and how they came to be when you put them on your feet at Rainbow Skateland. While you may enjoy rolling, turning, and gliding across the skate floor, skating was not always as simple as it now is in our rink. Roller_skating_c_1905

Taking a look at the history of skating, it is evident that the first pair of skates recorded as an invention took their place in the history books in 1760. These skates, developed by inventor John Joseph Merlin, were made with small metal wheels and had their wheels in one line similar to modern day inline skates. It was not until nearly sixty years later in 1819 when the first patent for roller skates was recorded. These skates again were similar to modern day inline skates, but were still quite basic. Simple maneuverability was quite difficult.

A large improvement was made in control and maneuverability in skate design in 1863. A furniture store owner named James Leonard Plimpton designed quad skates with two pairs of wheels. This allowed skaters to turn more easily and led to the first public skating rinks in the United States in 1866.

As skating design continued to change and safety measures such as the toe stop, added in 1876, skating started to take off. Roller skating was largely popular in the United States between 1935 and the early 1960’s. Another spike in skating interest took place in the 1970’s with further wheel improvements and disco music.

Health Benefits to Roller Skating

July 24, 2015 by taylor Leave a Comment

Did you know that roller skating has been one of America’s favorite pastimes? It’s true! It also provides you and your family with an excellent cardio workout. There are many health benefits that are included that you probably didn’t know you were getting from your laps around the rink.

Here are just a few health benefits you get to enjoy when you visit us for an active day of skating at Rainbow Skateland in Lockport, NY. stretching

1. Roller Skating is low-impact on your joints.

Athletes who run or play sports know that these type of sports are very hard on your joints all too well. Roller Skating provides you with a fluid motion that keeps you from damaging your joints, helping you enjoy movement similar to running without the harsh impact.

2. Roller Skating involves multiple muscle groups.

Summer is right around the corner and everywhere we look there seems to be a tip on how to look great in your swimsuit. Skating works your legs and glutes as you power through movement, while your arms and core get a workout as you balance your body during the movement.

3. Roller Skating burns just as many calories as other aerobic exercises.

As you glide across the rink at Rainbow, you may not realize just how many calories you’re burning because of all of the fun you’re having! Music, friends, fluid motion, and more make skating seem more like relaxing than working out, but you can still burn triple digit calories easily with a few laps around the floor.

When is the last time you had a workout that you really loved? Join as at the rink to get your cardio on with some skating!
