Inline Skate Frame Position: Friction and Burning Feet!

Submitted by eebee on Mon Sep 29 2008 4:56pm

My skate frames have been in the wrong position all year!!! What an idiot. I finally felt like I had the time yesterday to tweak one of them and go for a spin. I set the right skate frame further inwards - where they had been all last year when I had no boot problems whatsoever - set off skating and got such great leverage off that right leg that I almost pushed myself over in the other direction.

Submitted by timv on Mon Feb 4 2008 2:41pm

Blake has posted the advice that he offered to someone who asked for help buying her first speed boots, so I guess that I could do likewise:

Winter and Skating Technique

Submitted by andrewinnc on Sat Dec 1 2007 5:39am

Summer has been trying to hold on here in central NC so I have been taking advantage of it as much as possible and skating whenever the weather permits. I have been using the time to work on my technique and hopefully building a good solid base for next summer.

Submitted by roadskater on Mon Oct 22 2007 12:41am

Here's a book style collection of several polls that I put together for easy flip-through voting. I hope you enjoy the polls and if you have ideas for more, please use the create/feedback form to send me your thoughts! I'm republishing this so it will show up on the main page, rather than have each poll show up. Each time I add a poll I hope to remember to let you know through this message. The newest polls are:

Questions 165 &195: On Inexpensive Options for Inline Speed Skates (Boots & Frames)

Submitted by roadskater on Mon Aug 20 2007 2:05pm
Heyo...
I'm in search of something almost impossible: $200ish boots that are fully heat moldable and somewhat similar to my trusty V-Teks. I have been watching eBay to not much avail and am considering new old stock somewhere else. I have questions in this regard. I am currently a slow speed long distance skater.
  • Has anyone here skated the 2006 Verducci "Red" or Verducci "Black" boots with 165mm spacing?

Give Yourself a Brake...For Your Inline Speedskates

Submitted by clairem on Tue Jun 26 2007 2:12pm

If you need a break, no, I mean a brake, perhaps Cado Motus has what you need.  The former Mogema company has a brake that's supposed to work with 80mm-to-110mm-wheel frames.  Personally, I haven't seen one of these yet, but on www.nettracing.com there are pictures with installation instructions.

What brakes fit Salomon 3 x 100 +84 frames?

Submitted by eebee on Wed Aug 30 2006 12:41pm

Can somebody tell me what brake assemblies (manufacturer names, etc) fit on the frames that take 3x100+84? The frame brand is Salomon (S-Lab). I have a Miller brake on my Verducci 5x80 frame that worked like a dream. I was hoping to keep it but something tells me we've already discussed this on InlineNC back when everybody switched to 'big' wheels, and the Miller will no longer fit. I am having trouble narrowing the search down enough on the InlineNC homepage to find the discussion.
