1. Practice on grass and carpet till you get used to the feel of your inlines. Practice balancing on one foot and walk with toes pointed outwards since this is the position you'll be pushing off in when you get on the pavement. The better your balance is, the better you'll master striding, turning and stopping.

2. Protect yourself with a helmet, wrist guards, knee and elbow pads (get aggressive gear if it calls for it).

3. GET OFF THE CARPET & OUTSIDE ONTO THE PAVEMENT.
Make sure your area is free from stones & debris. Unless you're wearing ROXA's COUNTRY skates when you hit big stones and gravel, you're going to fly !

4. Keep your weight forward and bend your knees. Use your arms for balance, keep them out but forward and concentrate on balancing weight on the balls of your feet, not your heels.

5. Avoid hills and declines when you're starting out, you can build up speed fast on even the gradual of slopes. Make sure you're confident at braking. Find a flat surface like an empty car park or a tennis court - most sports centres now do inlining sessions at certain times in their indoor halls.

6. Don't skate on wet ground and if you're using the roads you are classed as traffic and must adhere to the laws. Always give way to pedestrians and try buying the cute finger bells or just yell out your intentions !!

7. Maintain your wheels and bearings well. Dirt, sand and dust will all clog up your bearings. Take them to your local sports shop for a good service if unsure and stick to dry pavements.
